Unifying biomedical knowledge in a modern multimodal graph

OptimusKG is a multimodal biomedical labeled property graph that integrates structured and semi‑structured resources to preserve detailed, type‑specific metadata across molecular, anatomical, clinical, and environmental domains. The graph contains nearly 191,000 nodes, over 21.8 million edges, and more than 67 million property instances derived from 18 ontologies, with a top‑level schema that enforces node and edge constraints while retaining granular provenance. Validation using the PaperQA3 agent found that 70.0% of sampled edges are supported by literature evidence, and the graph offers a standardized resource for machine learning, knowledge‑grounded retrieval, and hypothesis generation in biomedical research.

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.

SGHA: Evidence-Grounded Research Problem Discovery with Local Language Models

The paper introduces SGHA, a fully automated system that discovers research problems by structuring scientific literature into evidence-linked objects and a typed evidence graph. SGHA operates entirely on a local 9B open‑weight language model, avoiding proprietary frontier‑model APIs, and outputs traceable research‑problem families with assumptions, objectives, success criteria, and ambiguities. Comparative experiments in five machine‑learning domains show that SGHA’s corpus‑first, evidence‑constrained approach yields inspectable research‑problem formulation without relying on external models.

Beyond Verdicts: A Graph-Based Analysis of Human and LLM Reasoning in Scientific Fact-Checking

The paper introduces a typed reasoning graph framework to compare human and large language model (LLM) reasoning paths in scientific fact‑checking. By modeling explanations as graphs linking false claims to study context, findings, premises, and fallacy labels, the authors enable one‑to‑one alignment of human and LLM reasoning at the sub‑graph level. Using 84 false claims from MISSCIPLUS, they evaluate GPT‑5, Claude Opus 4.7, and Qwen3‑32B, finding distinct performance patterns: Qwen3‑32B has the lowest verdict failure rate, GPT‑5 shows the highest human alignment, and Claude Opus 4.7, while weak at verdict prediction, often produces valid reasoning in successful cases.
