STEM: Structure-Tracing Evidence Mining for Knowledge Graphs-Driven Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2604.22282v1 Announce Type: new Knowledge Graph-based Question Answering (KGQA) plays a pivotal role in complex reasoning tasks but remains constrained by two persistent challenges: the structural heterogeneity of Knowledge Graphs(KGs) often leads to semantic mismatch during retrieval, while existing reasoning path retrieval methods lack a global structural perspective. To address these issues, we propose Structure-Tracing Evidence Mining (STEM), a novel framework that reframes multi-hop reasoning as a schema-guided graph search task.
