Enabling Knowledge Graph Understanding at Scale with the EXplore Your Graphs ENgine (EXYGEN)

The paper introduces EXYGEN, a framework that enables conversational access to large knowledge graphs by combining VoID descriptions, ShEx schemas, retrieved triples, and example question‑query pairs in a retrieval‑augmented generation pipeline. On the SciQA benchmark, this approach achieves an exact‑match score of 0.419 without fine‑tuning any large language model, and shows that larger general‑purpose LLMs can outperform smaller code‑specialized ones when provided sufficient context. To scale metadata generation for very large KGs, the authors propose a predicate‑coverage‑aware parallel graph sampling strategy that preserves structural diversity, reduces runtime by over 80× on OpenCitations Meta and GESIS, and is the only tractable method for obtaining complete metadata on ORKG.

From SQL to Knowledge Graphs: An LLM-Driven Multi-Agent Approach with Data Schema Improvement

The paper introduces a novel LLM‑driven multi‑agent pipeline that converts relational databases into graph databases by standardizing table and column names and iteratively refining the graph schema through ETL, Analyzer, and Graph agents. The resulting graph database meets accuracy, groundedness, and faithfulness criteria and shows significant performance gains, achieving 85.6% Q&A accuracy—12.12% higher than an SQL agent on PostgreSQL—and reducing latency by roughly threefold on a BFSI dataset. This demonstrates an efficient, automated method for transforming tabular data into a more intuitive and faster‑executing graph format.

post-graph-rag: A PostgreSQL-Native Bi-Temporal Graph RAG Engine with Temporal Grounding at Synthesis

post-graph-rag is an open‑source PostgreSQL‑native engine that unifies chunks, embeddings, a canonical entity graph, and community summaries in a single database, using pgvector for search and edge tables for traversal. It validates extraction output—rejecting vague predicates, normalising predicates, resolving entities to unique vertices, and flagging negations—before writing, and employs a bi‑temporal layer to record when a relation held and when the system believed it, superseding incompatible earlier assertions. In benchmarks against LightRAG, it builds denser, more queryable graphs and achieves higher scores on LongMemEval, largely due to its temporal grounding in prompts.

Bridging the Gap: Enabling Natural Language Queries for NoSQL Databases through Text-to-NoSQL Translation

arXiv:2502. 11201v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: NoSQL databases are core data infrastructure, yet natural-language access to them remains underdeveloped: correct query generation must recover how a non-relational data model represents entities, nested paths, arrays, missing fields, and dynamic keys.

text2ql: Multi-Target Natural Language Querying via a Language-Agnostic Intermediate Representation

text2ql is an open‑source Python framework that enables natural language querying of databases without relying on large language models at query time. It uses a language‑agnostic intermediate representation (QueryIR) and a pluggable renderer to support both SQL and GraphQL targets through a single seven‑stage detection pipeline. In deterministic mode, it achieves 100% execution accuracy with a median latency of 3.2 ms, while the LLM‑backed mode delivers 62‑70% exact match and 84‑91% execution accuracy on benchmark samples.

What Drives Recovery in Agentic Text-to-Cypher? LAST-CQ: An LLM Agent Self-Refinement Framework

The paper introduces LAST-CQ, a five-agent, training‑free, execution‑grounded framework for Text‑to‑Cypher that evaluates which components of an agentic pipeline contribute most to performance. Experiments on 2,471 live‑database queries across six backbones show that removing correction reduces execution‑BLEU by 3.1–12.3%, while substituting schema‑grounded feedback with raw error strings has negligible impact. Parallel sampling degrades quality by 10–11%, whereas failure detection and retry routing recover 91.7% of initially failed queries, highlighting that simple failure handling is more effective than sophisticated feedback or increased sampling.
