FedV-KGQA: Multi-Hop Question Answering over Vertically Partitioned Knowledge Graphs

Read the original on arXiv AI →

FedV-KGQA is a framework for multi-hop question answering over knowledge graphs that are vertically partitioned across different organizations. It allows entities to be shared while each silo retains disjoint sets of relations, using local graph enrichment and knowledge graph embeddings so that raw triples and relation parameters never leave the silo. The system includes a topic entity anchoring mechanism to ground questions in the correct graph neighborhood without runtime inter-silo communication, and it achieves performance close to centralized systems on three benchmarks, including 3-hop reasoning and robustness to embedding perturbations.

KGFR: A Foundation Retriever for Generalized Knowledge Graph Question Answering

KGFR introduces a Knowledge Graph Foundation Retriever that collaborates with large language models to enhance knowledge‑intensive question answering. By encoding relations with LLM‑generated descriptions and initializing entities from question roles, KGFR enables zero‑shot generalization to unseen knowledge graphs. Its Asymmetric Progressive Propagation technique efficiently handles large graphs, while a controllable reasoning loop allows the LLM to request candidate answers, supporting facts, and reasoning paths.

Breaking the Reasoning Horizon in Entity Alignment Foundation Models

The paper introduces a new entity alignment foundation model that overcomes the limitations of existing models by addressing the "reasoning horizon gap". It employs a parallel encoding strategy that uses seed entity pairs as local anchors to guide message passing, thereby shortening inference paths and improving alignment across sparse, heterogeneous knowledge graphs. The model also incorporates a merged relation graph and a learnable interaction module, and experimental results demonstrate its strong generalizability to unseen knowledge graphs.
