arXiv:2604. 25693v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Most multi-modal knowledge graph completion (MMKGC) models use one embedding scorer to conduct both retrieval over the full entity set and final link prediction.
arXiv:2506. 22036v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: With the increasing multimodal knowledge privatization requirements, multimodal knowledge graphs in different institutes are usually decentralized, lacking of effective collaboration system with both stronger reasoning ability and transmission safety guarantees.
The paper investigates modular entity disambiguation by separating candidate retrieval from entity selection. It compares sparse retrieval (BM25), Web KB search, and a dense retriever, all paired with large language model selectors. Results show that a training‑free BM25 retriever combined with an LLM selector achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on the ZELDA benchmark, and the modular approach enables abstention when retrieval fails.
arXiv:2607. 03154v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-domain knowledge graph completion (MKGC) aims to improve missing triple prediction in a target KG by transferring knowledge from other support KGs.
arXiv:2604. 23336v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unlike traditional fact-based retrieval, rationale-based retrieval typically necessitates cross-encoding of query-document pairs using large language models, incurring substantial computational costs.
PEARL is a new framework for inductive knowledge graph completion that treats relational paths as context-conditioned reasoning signals. It builds a query‑specific contextual subgraph from the query entities’ neighborhoods and uses a large language model‑guided retriever to select semantically relevant paths. By constructing a bipartite interaction graph over paths, contextual entities, and a global subgraph representation, and applying a dual‑view contrastive objective, PEARL adapts path embeddings to local and global structural evidence, achieving the best average Hits@10 on WN18RR, FB15k‑237, and NELL‑995.
arXiv:2606. 26458v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over knowledge graphs has emerged as a promising approach for grounding large language models, yet existing benchmarks largely overlook the challenges of retrieval in multimodal knowledge graph RAG (MKG-RAG).
arXiv:2607. 15592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Knowledge Graph Completion (MKGC) requires inferring missing entities from structural, textual, and visual cues.
CORE improves compositional reasoning in multimodal language models by distilling a cross‑attentive reranker’s fine‑grained judgments into the embedding model. It generates candidate lists across five compositional matching levels and trains with a Rank‑KL objective to replicate the reranker’s ranking. Experiments on COLA, SUGARCREPE++, and NEGBENCH show CORE‑RERANKER‑8B outperforms Jina‑Reranker by 10.7 points, while CORE‑EMBED‑8B achieves the best overall average among evaluated embeddings, with gains also transferring to the MCMR benchmark without harming COCO or Flickr30K retrieval.
CLIP-RD introduces a relational distillation framework for efficient CLIP knowledge distillation, featuring Vertical Relational Distillation (VRD) and Cross Relational Distillation (XRD). VRD aligns intra‑modal similarity distributions between teacher and student, while XRD aligns cross‑modal similarity distributions to enforce bidirectional symmetry. This joint modeling of multidirectional relational structures improves the student’s embedding geometry, yielding a 1.8%p performance gain over CLIP‑KD across various architectures, tasks, and corruption settings with minimal training‑time overhead.
CAGE: Coherence-Aware Graph Encoding for Retrieval-Augmented Generation introduces a reranking framework that evaluates and enhances the coherence of retrieved passages across four dimensions—Intra-Domain Relevance, Noise Resistance, Informational Bonding, and Factual Consistency. The method transforms passages into directed heterogeneous entity graphs, reweights factual anchors, encodes structural patterns with a Relational Graph Convolutional Network, and fuses inter-chunk coherence with query relevance to produce a final ranking. Evaluations on four multi‑hop benchmarks show that CAGE matches or surpasses strong baselines, improving Recall@5 on bridge‑dominated datasets and consistently boosting downstream Exact Match scores, indicating that structurally coherent context leads to more precise answers even when retrieval recall is similar or lower.
arXiv:2606. 16509v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Link prediction in knowledge graphs fundamentally depends on the quality of learned embeddings for entities and relations.
Entity-Memory graph retrieval preserves dialogue turns as verbatim memory nodes, links repeated mentions via shared entities, and connects adjacent memories with chronological edges. During retrieval, the system gates through entities, fuses semantics, and performs one‑hop chronological recovery before dense backfill, allowing it to keep neighboring memories that dense cosine ranking might miss. On 1,986 questions from ten LoCoMo conversations, this graph retrieval method increases official evidence recall at top‑k 25 from 79.7468 % to 84.4842 %, with the advantage extending from top‑k 5 to 50, though it does not improve overall final‑answer F1.
