The Compressive Knowledge Graph Hypothesis: Which Graph Facts Matter for Scientific Hypothesis Generation?

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.27176v1 Announce Type: new Knowledge graphs (KGs) can provide structured scientific context to language models, but it remains unclear which graph facts actually shape the generated hypotheses. We study KG-guided hypothesis generation for battery materials across Mistral-7B, Llama-3.1-70B, and Gemini 2.5 Flash. We perturb local KGs by varying density, ontology richness, topology, and control structure, and evaluate outputs with both provided-graph and fixed-reference metrics.
