Better Later Than Sooner: Neuro-Symbolic Knowledge Graph Construction via Ontology-grounded Post-extraction Correction

The paper introduces a neuro‑symbolic framework for constructing knowledge graphs (KGs) that are grounded in an ontology. It combines open‑domain extraction, embedding‑based canonicalization of types and predicates, and a post‑extraction LLM‑based correction step to fix ontology violations, thereby reducing token usage and improving KG consistency. The resulting KGs support symbolic querying, as evidenced by the prevalence of SPARQL graph patterns in the extracted data.

SymbolLKG: Towards Verifiable Logical Reasoning via Logical Knowledge Graph and Symbolic Solvers

The paper introduces SymbolLKG, a neuro-symbolic framework that combines a Logical Knowledge Graph (LKG) with dynamic solver routing to improve logical reasoning in large language models. The LKG represents logical rules and constraints as topological nodes, enabling explicit modeling of dependencies extracted from text. A Logic Router dispatches tasks to the most suitable symbolic engine, supported by a topology-aware hybrid retrieval mechanism, and the approach outperforms existing prompting and RAG baselines on logical reasoning benchmarks.

Neural-Symbolic Reasoning over Knowledge Graphs: A Survey from a Query Perspective

The article surveys neural-symbolic reasoning over knowledge graphs from a query perspective, highlighting the limitations of traditional symbolic methods when dealing with incomplete or noisy data. It discusses how the fusion of deep learning and symbolic reasoning—termed Neural Symbolic AI—offers interpretable and versatile solutions, and examines the role of large language models in advancing knowledge graph inference. The survey provides a comprehensive review of query types, classification of neural-symbolic approaches, and future directions for integrating LLMs with knowledge graph reasoning.

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.

Build2SPARQL: A Large-Scale Text-to-SPARQL Benchmark Dataset for Building Knowledge Graph Querying

Build2SPARQL is a large-scale benchmark dataset for translating natural-language questions into SPARQL queries over building knowledge graphs. The dataset is generated by a KG‑grounded pipeline that produces 6,136 executable SPARQL queries and 30,680 corresponding natural-language questions across six query-pattern families and five vocabulary registers, covering 201 building KGs. Human validation shows high semantic fidelity, naturalness, and operational plausibility, and retrieval‑augmented evaluation demonstrates significant accuracy gains for open‑weight language models.
