Schema-Anchored Latent Reasoning for Semantic Parsing-Based Knowledge Base Question Answering

The paper introduces SALR, a schema‑anchored latent reasoning approach for generating logical forms in knowledge‑base question answering. SALR delays explicit schema commitments by generating continuous thoughts in hidden states and aligns these thoughts with a codebook of KB schema elements, guided by an alignment objective derived from gold logical forms. Experiments on GrailQA and WebQSP demonstrate that SALR consistently outperforms strong baselines, notably improving compositional question performance by 2.86 F1 points over TIARA.
