Boosting Knowledge Graph Foundation Models via Enhanced Negative Sampling

arXiv:2605.27023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge graphs (KGs) have become the core backbone of numerous downstream tasks such as question answering and recommender systems. However, despite all this, KGs are often very incomplete. To perform zero-shot knowledge graph completion in unseen KGs, which have different relational vocabularies from those used for pre-training, KG foundation models (KGFMs) receive a wide range of attention. Existing KGFMs often perform training using random negative triples, which are constructed by replacing the head or tail entity of a positive triple with

Why this matters
Why now

The paper addresses current limitations in Knowledge Graph Foundation Models, specifically the challenge of zero-shot knowledge graph completion, which is a critical area for improving AI's understanding and reasoning capabilities.

Why it’s important

Improving KGFMs through better training techniques could significantly enhance the performance of AI systems in tasks like question answering and recommender systems across various domains.

What changes

New methods for negative sampling could lead to more robust and generalizable KGFMs, enabling better performance on unseen knowledge graphs with different vocabularies.
