New HiddenPathQA benchmark tests KGQA systems on obscured knowledge paths

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced HiddenPathQA, a new benchmark designed to evaluate knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) systems on questions where the wording does not explicitly reveal the underlying knowledge graph path. This addresses a blind spot in current KGQA evaluations, which often rely on lexical cues that users may not provide. The benchmark includes 1,055 manually verified questions across various domains and hop counts. To tackle this challenge, the paper proposes Holistic Path Selection, a method that evaluates candidate relation chains as complete units, outperforming six existing KGQA baselines by a significant margin, even when entity names are replaced with pseudowords. AI

IMPACT This benchmark could drive the development of more robust KGQA systems capable of understanding nuanced user queries, improving AI's ability to extract information from complex knowledge graphs.

    HiddenPathQA: A Benchmark for Knowledge Graph Question Answering When Questions Hide Their Paths

    Knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) systems are typically evaluated on questions whose surface tokens lexically expose the gold KG path. Users, however, may ask questions without knowing the underlying schema: "Which condition could Andrew have due to family history?" compr…
