KG-Guard: Graph-Based Hallucination Detection for Knowledge Base Question Answering

arXiv:2606. 00328v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for knowledge base question answering (KBQA), where answering requires selecting entities from a question-specific knowledge-graph subgraph.

FedV-KGQA in Practice: Design Lessons and an Interactive Prototype

FedV-KGQA addresses multi‑hop question answering over vertically partitioned knowledge graphs where each silo holds disjoint relation types. The system trains local embeddings, concatenates silo‑specific entity views, anchors questions at a topic entity, and ranks candidates without sharing raw triples. Experiments show federated fusion nearly matches centralized accuracy, that anchoring and enrichment are more critical than embedding choice, and that the cheapest encoder depends on target accuracy.

KG2Code: Bridging Knowledge Graphs and Large Language Models via Executable Code for Question Answering

arXiv:2607. 22652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent research has explored the integration of knowledge graphs (KGs) with large language models (LLMs) to enhance their performance on downstream knowledge-intensive tasks, particularly knowledge graph question answering (KGQA).

Query-Side Attacks on GNN-Based KGQA: Tracing Failures from Entity Linking to Answer Generation

The paper investigates where failures occur in GNN‑based Knowledge Graph Question Answering pipelines when faced with adversarial question perturbations. By isolating stages—entity linking, subgraph retrieval, GNN reasoning, and answer generation—and applying two answer‑preserving attacks (Compositional Restructuring and Relation Synonym Swap), the authors find that subgraph construction is responsible for over 99% of end‑to‑end failures, even though the correct answer is often present in the retrieved subgraph. This challenges the assumption that reasoning models are the weak link and highlights subgraph construction as the critical mitigation target.

GraphInfer-Bench: Benchmarking LLM's Inference Capability on Graphs

arXiv:2606. 11562v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph analysis underlies many applications whose answers cannot be looked up in a single record or retrieved along a path: laundering rings, drug repurposing, user preference, and scientific theme are all inferred from a node together with its neighbourhood.

Constrained Entity Selection under Partial Knowledge for LLM-Based Knowledge Graph QA

The paper introduces Constrained Entity Selection under Partial Knowledge (CES-PK), a framework for improving large language model (LLM) based knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) by filtering candidate answers with lightweight symbolic constraints instead of full semantic parsing. CES-PK uses a three-valued constraint semantics—satisfied, violated, unknown—to handle incomplete knowledge graphs and avoid incorrect rejections under open‑world assumptions. Experiments on the Hetionet biomedical knowledge graph show that applying type, relation, and exclusion constraints increases precision while preserving recall, and that satisfied constraints can be used to rank remaining candidates.
