A Unified Framework for Context-Aware and Relation-Aware Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv:2606. 18075v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a paradigm for enhancing large language models (LLMs) with external knowledge, yet existing graph-based methods face a fundamental limitation: entity-centric and chunk-centric approaches operate on representations anchored to original text without true knowledge fusion.

HyGRAIL: Cost-Aware and Evidence-Grounded Scientific Hypothesis Discovery over Knowledge Graphs

HyGRAIL is a framework for discovering scientific hypotheses in incomplete knowledge graphs by combining a graph neural network (GNN) triage with large language model (LLM) review. The GNN scores candidate hypotheses and routes only ambiguous cases to the LLM, which receives structured evidence from the graph converted into natural language. Experiments on MatKG show HyGRAIL achieves the highest F1 score, improves over baselines, and cuts LLM calls by over 54%.

Are Large Language Models Effective Knowledge Graph Constructors?

The paper investigates whether large language models (LLMs) can construct knowledge graphs (KGs) from documents in a zero‑shot, schema‑free manner. It introduces the Detail‑to‑Abstract Hierarchical Knowledge Graph (D2A‑HKG) framework, which splits KG construction into extraction, splitting, and abstraction stages, and evaluates the resulting graphs semantically and structurally. Using seven leading LLMs, the authors benchmark zero‑shot KG construction on CMW‑Lit—a dataset of pediatric mental‑wellness research—and find that state‑of‑the‑art LLMs generally produce relevant, document‑faithful triples with limited hallucination, though their extraction behaviors vary across stages. The study releases CMW‑Lit and the generated graphs as resources for future research and downstream knowledge‑intensive applications.

ConvergeWriter: Data-Driven Bottom-Up Article Construction

ConvergeWriter introduces a bottom‑up, data‑driven framework for long‑form document generation that first retrieves exhaustive knowledge from a source corpus and clusters it into distinct knowledge groups. These clusters then guide the creation of a hierarchical outline and the final text, ensuring the output is strictly grounded in the retrieved material and traceable to its sources. Experiments on 14B and 32B LLMs show that this approach matches or surpasses state‑of‑the‑art baselines, especially in scenarios requiring high factual fidelity and structural coherence.

SelfGraphRAG: Bridging the Supervision Gap in Graph-Based RAG with Synthetic QA Generation

SelfGraphRAG is a framework that generates synthetic question‑answer pairs directly from the structure of a knowledge graph to train a query‑conditioned graph retriever. By capturing multi‑hop paths and local neighborhoods, the generated questions provide relational supervision without requiring manually labeled data. Experiments on multi‑hop question answering and classification tasks show that SelfGraphRAG improves retrieval precision and downstream reasoning performance compared to embedding‑based baselines.

Building evidence-based knowledge bases from full-text literature for disease-specific biomedical reasoning

EvidenceNet is a disease‑specific dataset that transforms full‑text biomedical literature into structured evidence records and graph representations, preserving study design, provenance, and quantitative support. Using an LLM‑assisted pipeline, it extracts experimentally grounded findings, normalizes entities, scores evidence quality, and links related records via typed semantic relations. The released subsets—EvidenceNet‑HCC and EvidenceNet‑CRC—contain thousands of evidence records and richly connected graphs, with high extraction and relation‑type accuracy, enabling retrieval‑augmented question answering and graph‑based tasks such as link prediction and target prioritization.

Learning to Ideate for Scientific Impact

The paper "Learning to Ideate for Scientific Impact" explores using delayed signals of scientific uptake—specifically citation-normalized impact—as feedback to steer large language models toward generating high‑impact research ideas. The authors build a dataset of over 100,000 computer science papers, train a reward model to predict citation impact from goal‑idea pairs, and align an idea generator via supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning. Evaluation with a reference‑grounded protocol shows that the RL‑tuned model consistently produces ideas with higher estimated impact than baseline models.
