Taxonomy completion is the task of integrating new concepts into an existing taxonomy by determining the appropriate hypernym--hyponym relations. Existing approaches often struggle with the inherent imbalance between leaf and non-leaf edges, which induces bias in representation learning. In this paper, we propose BLEND: Balanced and Leaf-Enhanced Dual Fine-Tuning for Taxonomy Completion, a novel framework designed to mitigate this inductive bias. Our method employs independent fine-tuning of two lightweight large language models (LLMs): one optimized with a leaf-focused objective and the other trained with a balanced focused strategy. To further enhance structural understanding, we apply contrastive learning over structure-encoded paths and introduce a combined loss function, enabling more robust representation of hierarchical relations. Extensive experiments on three real-world benchmark datasets demonstrate that BLEND achieves up to 9.32% improvement in recall or hit metrics compared to state-of-the-art approaches. Moreover, BLEND delivers efficient inference while outperforming the latest baseline COMI, highlighting its effectiveness for taxonomy completion tasks.

Multimodal fake information increasingly threatens the Web ecosystem's trustworthiness and security, making improving detection accuracy a critical scientific challenge. The limited information interaction in traditional multimodal fake news detection methods fails to leverage semantic knowledge to model complex cross-modal forgery patterns and global structural anomalies, restricting the model's capability. To address the issues, this paper proposes a multimodal fake news detection method, SVPF-Net, that centers on semantic-driven visual enhancement and knowledge-aided modality-priority fusion. For visual representation optimization, we design a dual-feature extraction module and a dual-fusion enhancement module. A weighted fusion strategy is employed to construct a structured visual representation that integrates the semantics of local forgeries and global anomalies. Meanwhile, a cross-attention mechanism enables bidirectional alignment and interactive coupling between local and global image features, thereby achieving effective complementarity between local forgery cues and global anomaly patterns. For multimodal fusion, high-quality textual semantic features and visual representations are integrated via a modality-priority progressive fusion strategy that relies on cross-attention. The integration enables robust cross-modal semantic interaction and effectively enhances the efficiency of multimodal feature fusion. Comprehensive experiments validate the optimal performance of SVPF-Net and its ability to enhance interpretable semantics, providing valuable support for the practical application of reliable fake news detection.
Multimodal knowledge graphs (MMKG) extend the representational capacity of conventional knowledge graphs by integrating multimodal contexts. However, despite increasing attention on core tasks—multimodal link prediction (MMLP), multimodal entity alignment (MMEA), and multimodal entity linking (MMEL)—most existing approaches remain confined to meticulously tailored, task-specific and graph-specific paradigms, limiting their practicality in dynamic environments where tasks co-exist and new knowledge graphs continually emerge. In this work, we propose the first unified multi-task inductive inference framework for \MMKG (MtaIMKG) that can handle multiple core tasks, with universality and transferability to any unseen MMKG, by tackling inherent heterogeneities: i) Feature Heterogeneity: Bridging the semantic gaps in feature representations across domains. ii) Structural Heterogeneity: Overcoming structural divergence in topology across graphs. iii) Task Heterogeneity: Reconciling conflicting objectives and inductive biases across tasks. To address the above challenges, we center on reconciling divergent representation preferences across tasks, delivering only task-pertinent information instead of engaging in indiscriminate aggregation. Specifically, we introduce a task-aware routing network that dynamically integrates and routes multimodal representations, assesses their contributions under task semantics, and produces adaptive, task-conditioned representations for any input graph. In addition, MtaIMKG employs a gated mixture-of-experts to suppress cross-modal noise and extract complementary information across tasks. These strategies tackle the notable heterogeneity challenges in multi-task inductive inference on MMKG, enabling MtaIMKG to effectively zero-shot generalize to any unseen graph. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MtaIMKG achieves SOTA performance in both multi-task inductive and transductive inference with competitive efficiency, confirming its value as a scalable and generalizable solution for MMKG reasoning. Our code is released at https://github.com/MMKGer/MtaIMKG/.
Dynamic graph clustering aims to detect and track time-varying clusters in dynamic graphs, revealing how complex real-world systems evolve over time. However, existing methods are predominantly black-box models. They lack interpretability in their clustering decisions and fail to provide semantic explanations of why clusters form or how they evolve, severely limiting their use in safety-critical domains such as healthcare or transportation. To address these limitations, we propose an end-to-end interpretable framework that maps continuous graph embeddings into discrete semantic concepts through learnable prototypes. Specifically, we first decompose node representations into orthogonal role and clustering subspaces, so that nodes with similar roles (e.g., hubs, bridges) but different cluster affiliations can be properly distinguished. We then introduce five node role prototypes (Leader, Contributor, Wanderer, Connector, Newcomer) in the role subspace as semantic anchors, transforming continuous embeddings into discrete concepts to facilitate LLM understanding of node roles within communities. Finally, we design a hierarchical LLM reasoning mechanism to generate both clustering results and natural language explanations, while providing consistency feedback as weak supervision to refine node representations. Experimental results on four synthetic and six real-world benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness, interpretability, and robustness of DyG-RoLLM.

Wikipedia, a vast and continuously consulted knowledge base, faces significant challenges in maintaining up-to-date content due to its reliance on manual human editors. Inspired by the vision of continuous knowledge acquisition in NELL and fueled by advances in LLM-based agents, this paper introduces WINEL, an agentic framework for continuously updating Wikipedia articles. Our approach employs a multi-agent framework to aggregate online information, select new and important knowledge for a target entity in Wikipedia, and then generate precise edit suggestions for human review. Our fine-grained editing models, trained on Wikipedia's extensive history of human edits, enable incorporating updates in a manner consistent with human editing behavior. Our editor models outperform both open-source instruction-following baselines and closed-source LLMs (e.g., GPT-4o) in key-information coverage and editing efficiency. End-to-end evaluation on high-activity Wikipedia pages demonstrates WINELL's ability to identify timely factual updates. This opens up a promising research direction in LLM agents for automatically updating knowledge bases in a never-ending fashion.
As social media and the World Wide Web become hubs for information dissemination, effectively organizing and understanding the vast amounts of dynamically evolving Web content is crucial. Knowledge graphs (KGs) provide a powerful framework for structuring this information. However, the rapid emergence of new hot topics, user relationships, and events in social media renders traditional static knowledge graph embedding (KGE) models rapidly outdated. Continual Knowledge Graph Embedding (CKGE) aims to address this issue, but existing methods commonly suffer from catastrophic forgetting, whereby older, but still valuable, information is lost when learning new knowledge (such as new memes or trending events). This means the model cannot effectively learn the evolution of the data. We propose a novel CKGE framework, BAKE. Unlike existing methods, BAKE formulates CKGE as a sequential Bayesian inference problem and utilizes the Bayesian posterior update principle as a natural continual learning strategy. This principle is insensitive to data order and provides theoretical guarantees to preserve prior knowledge as much as possible. Specifically, we treat each batch of new data as a Bayesian update to the model's prior. By maintaining the posterior distribution, the model effectively preserves earlier knowledge even as it evolves over multiple snapshots. Furthermore, to constrain the evolution of knowledge across snapshots, we introduce a continual clustering method that maintains the compact cluster structure of entity embeddings through a regularization term, ensuring semantic consistency while allowing controlled adaptation to new knowledge. We conduct extensive experiments on multiple CKGE benchmarks, which demonstrate that BAKE achieves the top performance in the vast majority of cases compared to existing approaches.
Transparent and standardized documentation is essential for building trustworthy generative AI (GAI) systems. However, current automated model and data card generation methods still face three key challenges: (i) Static templates. Most systems rely on fixed query templates that cannot adapt to diverse paper structures or evolving documentation requirements. (ii) Information scarcity. Web-scale repositories such as Hugging Face often provide incomplete or inconsistent metadata, resulting in missing or noisy information. (iii) Lack of benchmarks. The absence of standardized datasets and evaluation protocols prevents fair and reproducible assessment of documentation quality. To address these challenges, we propose AdaQE-CG, an Adaptive Query Expansion for Card Generation framework that integrates dynamic information extraction with cross-card knowledge transfer. The Intra-Paper Extraction via Context-Aware Query Expansion (IPE-QE) module iteratively refines extraction queries to capture richer and more complete information from scientific papers and repositories. The Inter-Card Completion using the MetaGAI Pool (ICC-MP) module enriches missing fields by transferring semantically relevant content from similar cards within a curated dataset. In addition, we construct MetaGAI-Bench, the first large-scale, expert-annotated benchmark for evaluating GAI documentation. Comprehensive experiments across five quality dimensions demonstrate that AdaQE-CG significantly outperforms existing approaches, surpasses human-authored data cards, and approaches human-level quality for model cards. Code, prompts, and data are publicly available at: https://github.com/haoxuan-unt2024/AdaQE-CG.
Large Language Models have achieved impressive performance across a wide range of applications. However, they often suffer from hallucinations in knowledge-intensive domains due to their reliance on static pretraining corpora. To address this limitation, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances LLMs by incorporating external knowledge sources during inference. Among these sources, Textural Graphs offer structured and semantically rich information that supports more precise and interpretable reasoning. This has led to growing interest in Graph-based RAG systems. Despite their potential, most existing approaches rely on a single retriever to identify relevant subgraphs, which limits their ability to capture the diverse aspects of complex queries. Moreover, these systems often struggle to accurately judge the relevance of retrieved content, making them prone to distraction by irrelevant noise. To address these challenges, in this paper, we propose MixRAG, a Mixture-of-Experts Graph-RAG framework that introduces multiple specialized graph retrievers and a dynamic routing controller to better handle diverse query intents. Each retriever is trained to focus on a specific aspect of graph semantics, such as entities, relations, or subgraph topology. A Mixture-of-Experts module adaptively selects and fuses relevant retrievers based on the input query. To reduce noise in the retrieved information, we introduce a query-aware GraphEncoder that carefully analyzes relationships within the retrieved subgraphs, helping to highlight the most relevant parts while down-weighting unnecessary noise. Empirical results show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance and consistently outperforms various baselines. The code can be found from https://github.com/lihuiliullh/MixRAG
Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable performance on general Question Answering (QA), yet they often struggle in domain-specific scenarios where accurate and up-to-date information is required. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) addresses this limitation by enriching LLMs with external knowledge, but existing systems primarily rely on unstructured documents, while largely overlooking relational databases, which provide precise, timely, and efficiently queryable factual information, serving as indispensable infrastructure in domains such as finance, healthcare, and scientific research. Motivated by this gap, we conduct a systematic analysis that reveals three central observations: (i) databases and documents offer complementary strengths across queries, (ii) naively combining both sources introduces noise and cost without consistent accuracy gains, and (iii) selecting the most suitable source for each query is crucial to balance effectiveness and efficiency. We further observe that query types show consistent regularities in their alignment with retrieval paths, suggesting that routing decisions can be effectively guided by systematic rules that capture these patterns. Building on these insights, we propose a rule-driven routing framework designed specifically for hybrid-source RAG. A routing agent scores candidate augmentation paths based on explicit rules and selects the most suitable one; a rule-making expert agent refines the rules using QA feedback to produce more comprehensive and reliable decision criteria; and a path-level meta-cache reuses past routing decisions for semantically similar queries to reduce latency and cost. Experiments on three QA datasets demonstrate that our framework consistently outperforms static strategies and learned routing baselines, achieving higher accuracy while maintaining moderate computational cost.
Taxonomies form the backbone of structured knowledge representation across diverse domains, enabling applications such as e-commerce and semantic search. Yet, manual taxonomy expansion is labor-intensive and slow. Existing methods rely on point-based vector embeddings, which model symmetric similarity and thus struggle with the asymmetric relationships that are fundamental to taxonomies. Box embeddings offer a promising alternative by enabling containment and disjointness, but they face key issues: (i) unstable gradients at the intersection boundaries, (ii) no notion of semantic uncertainty, and (iii) limited capacity to represent polysemy or ambiguity. We address these shortcomings with TaxoBell, a Gaussian box embedding framework that translates between box geometries and multivariate Gaussian distributions, where means encode semantic location and covariances encode uncertainty. Energy-based optimization yields stable optimization, robust modeling of ambiguous concepts, and interpretable hierarchical reasoning. Extensive experiments on five benchmark datasets demonstrate that TaxoBell significantly outperforms eight state-of-the-art taxonomy expansion baselines by 19% in MRR and around 25% in Recall@k. We further demonstrate the advantages and pitfalls of TaxoBell with error analysis and ablation studies.
Recent advances in knowledge representation learning (KRL) highlight the urgent necessity to unify symbolic knowledge graphs (KGs) with language models (LMs) for richer semantic understanding. However, existing approaches typically prioritize either graph structure or textual semantics, which leaves a gap, i.e., a unified framework that simultaneously captures global KG connectivity, nuanced linguistic context, and discriminative reasoning semantics. To bridge this gap, we introduce KG-BiLM, a bidirectional LM framework that fuses structural cues from KGs with the semantic expressiveness of generative transformers. KG-BiLM incorporates three key components: (i) Bidirectional Knowledge Attention, which eliminates the causal mask to enable full interaction among all tokens and entities; (ii) Knowledge-Masked Prediction, which encourages the model to leverage both local semantic contexts and global graph connectivity; and (iii) Contrastive Graph Semantic Aggregation, which preserves KG structure via contrastive alignment of sampled subgraph representations. Extensive experiments on standard benchmarks demonstrate that KG-BiLM outperforms the state-of-the-art baselines in link prediction, especially on large-scale graphs with complex multi-hop relations—validating its effectiveness in unifying structural information and textual semantics. The source code of KG-BiLM is available at https://github.com/zirui-chen/kg-bilm
Knowledge Hypergraphs (KHs) have recently emerged as a knowledge representation for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), offering a paradigm to model multi-entity relations into a structured form. However, existing KH-based RAG methods suffer from three major limitations: static retrieval planning, non-adaptive retrieval execution, and superficial use of KH structure and semantics, which constrain their ability to perform effective multi-hop question answering. To overcome these limitations, we propose PRoH, a dynamic Planning and Reasoning over Knowledge Hypergraphs framework. PRoH incorporates three core innovations: (i) a context-aware planning module that sketches the local KH neighborhood to guide structurally grounded reasoning plan generation; (ii) a structured question decomposition process that organizes subquestions as a dynamically evolving Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) to enable adaptive, multi-trajectory exploration; and (iii) an Entity-Weighted Overlap (EWO)-guided reasoning path retrieval algorithm that prioritizes semantically coherent hyperedge traversals. Experiments across multiple domains demonstrate that PRoH achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing the prior SOTA model HyperGraphRAG by an average of 19.73% in F1 and 8.41% in Generation Evaluation (G-E) score, while maintaining strong robustness in long-range multi-hop reasoning tasks.
Large Language Models (LLMs) possess strong representation and reasoning capabilities, but their application to structure-based drug design (SBDD) is limited by insufficient understanding of protein structures and unpredictable molecular generation. To address these challenges, we propose Exploration-Augmented Latent Inference for LLMs (ELILLM), a framework that reinterprets the LLM generation process as an encoding, latent space exploration, and decoding workflow. ELILLM explicitly explores portions of the design problem beyond the model's current knowledge while using a decoding module to handle familiar regions, generating chemically valid and synthetically reasonable molecules. In our implementation, Bayesian optimization guides the systematic exploration of latent embeddings, and a position-aware surrogate model efficiently predicts binding affinity distributions to inform the search. Knowledge-guided decoding further reduces randomness and effectively imposes chemical validity constraints. We demonstrate ELILLM on the CrossDocked2020 benchmark, showing strong controlled exploration and high binding affinity scores compared with seven baseline methods. These results demonstrate that ELILLM can effectively enhance LLMs' capabilities for SBDD. Our code is available at https://github.com/hxnhxn/ELILLM.
Accurate representation of multimodal knowledge is crucial for event forecasting in real-world scenarios. However, existing studies have largely focused on static settings, overlooking the dynamic acquisition and fusion of multimodal knowledge. 1) At the knowledge acquisition level, how to learn time-sensitive information of different modalities, especially the dynamic structural modality. Existing dynamic learning methods are often limited to shallow structures across heterogeneous spaces or simple unispaces, making it difficult to capture deep relation-aware geometric features. 2) At the knowledge fusion level, how to learn evolving multimodal fusion features. Existing knowledge fusion methods based on static coattention struggle to capture the varying historical contributions of different modalities to future events. To this end, we propose DyMRL, a Dynamic Multispace Representation Learning approach to efficiently acquire and fuse multimodal temporal knowledge. 1) For the former issue, DyMRL integrates time-specific structural features from Euclidean, hyperbolic, and complex spaces into a relational message-passing framework to learn deep representations, reflecting human intelligences in associative thinking, high-order abstracting, and logical reasoning. Pretrained models endow DyMRL with time-sensitive visual and linguistic intelligences. 2) For the latter concern, DyMRL incorporates advanced dual fusion-evolution attention mechanisms that assign dynamic learning emphases equally to different modalities at different timestamps in a symmetric manner. To evaluate DyMRL's event forecasting performance through leveraging its learned multimodal temporal knowledge in history, we construct four multimodal temporal knowledge graph benchmarks. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DyMRL outperforms state-of-the-art dynamic unimodal and static multimodal baseline methods.
