GraphCert: Bootstrap Agentic Graph Reasoning with Certified Evidence Rubrics

GraphCert introduces a method to bootstrap graph reasoning agents by generating graph‑grounded question‑answer pairs and certifying the supporting evidence. The approach uses a Bootstrapped Graph Quizzer to produce QA pairs, then executes and semantically curates the evidence into certified rubrics that guide reward‑based training of a Graph Solver. Experiments on five GRBENCH domains show GraphCert outperforms larger LLM agents and demonstrates robust policy transfer across heterogeneous graphs.

From Storage to Access: Verifiable Activation of Parametric Knowledge in LLMs via Explicit Priming and Implicit Reasoning

The paper introduces VAKE, a two‑stage reinforcement‑learning framework that activates latent factual knowledge in large language models. In the Priming stage, the model explicitly inserts bridging triples into an insufficient subgraph, guided by rewards from a frozen model’s answers. The Reasoning stage then trains the model to answer from the original input, demonstrating that the elicitation capability transfers to implicit reasoning and consistently outperforms baselines across multiple benchmarks and model sizes.

LakeQA: An Exploratory QA Benchmark over a Million-Scale Data Lake

arXiv:2606. 10460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) have shown rapid progress in reading-based question answering (QA), where evidence is explicitly provided or can be trivially retrieved.
