Search-on-Graph: Iterative Informed Navigation for Large Language Model Reasoning on Knowledge Graphs

arXiv:2510.08825v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) augmented with knowledge graphs (KGs) offer a promising approach for knowledge-intensive reasoning. Central to this approach is the selection of appropriate reasoning paths in the KG. Yet, existing methods face a common limitation: reasoning path selection is often performed by separate modules using criteria that are only weakly connected to the reasoning requirements. This often results in selecting incorrect relations or premature pruning of relevant paths. We propose Search-on-Graph (SoG), a method that streng

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing complexity and knowledge-intensive nature of AI tasks necessitate more robust reasoning capabilities for Large Language Models, making KG-augmented LLM approaches a critical area of development.

Why it’s important

This development enhances the reasoning capabilities of LLMs, moving them beyond statistical pattern matching towards more reliable, explainable, and complex problem-solving based on structured knowledge.

What changes

Existing methods for LLM reasoning on knowledge graphs, often reliant on weakly connected path selection, are being superseded by more integrated and iteratively informed navigation techniques.
