VISPATH: Visual-Intent-Guided Path Reasoning for Multimodal Knowledge Graph Question Answering

VISPATH is a visual‑intent‑guided path reasoning framework designed for multimodal knowledge graph question answering (MM‑KGQA). It first identifies a reliable starting entity by fusing multimodal grounding with graph‑structural cues, then iteratively discovers and refines reasoning paths using hop‑specific multimodal intent and a reasoning‑chain pruning step. The framework is evaluated on the newly introduced VISPATH‑Bench, which tests two‑to‑four‑hop reasoning, and demonstrates consistent improvements over strong baselines, even surpassing GPT‑5.4 when using GPT‑4o as the backbone.

MKG-RAG-Bench: Benchmarking Retrieval in Multimodal Knowledge Graph-Augmented Generation

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).
