无需预设实体锚点,多智能体协作实现开放世界知识图谱检索生成。
Towards Open-World Retrieval-Augmented Generation on Knowledge Graph: A Multi-Agent Collaboration Framework
- 用预测代理动态找候选实体,多个检索代理并行探索知识图谱。
- 在四个基准上超越现有方法,开放世界推理任务达新纪录。
- 适合需要高鲁棒性知识推理的复杂问答场景。
大型语言模型虽具备强大搜索与推理能力,但依赖静态训练数据易产生事实错误和知识盲区。检索增强生成(RAG)通过引入外部知识源,特别是结构化知识图谱(KG),可提供明确语义与高效检索。然而,现有基于KG的RAG方法通常假设存在可访问的锚实体以启动图遍历,这在开放世界中因用户查询与图谱实体匹配不可靠而受限。为此,我们提出AnchorRAG——一种无需预定义锚实体的多智能体协作框架。具体而言,预测代理通过对齐查询词与图谱节点,动态识别候选锚点;独立的检索代理从每个候选点出发并行执行多跳探索;监督代理则制定迭代检索策略,并融合所得知识路径生成最终答案。该框架提升了检索鲁棒性,缓解了模糊或错误锚点的影响。在四个公开基准上的大量实验表明,AnchorRAG显著优于现有基线,在真实世界推理任务中建立新最佳性能。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in web search and reasoning. However, their dependence on static training corpora makes them prone to factual errors and knowledge gaps. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) addresses this limitation by incorporating external knowledge sources, especially structured Knowledge Graphs (KGs), which provide explicit semantics and efficient retrieval. Existing KG-based RAG approaches, however, generally assume that anchor entities are accessible to initiate graph traversal, which limits their robustness in open-world settings where accurate linking between the user query and the KG entity is unreliable. To overcome this limitation, we propose AnchorRAG, a novel multi-agent collaboration framework for open-world RAG without the predefined anchor entities. Specifically, a predictor agent dynamically identifies candidate anchor entities by aligning user query terms with KG nodes and initializes independent retriever agents to conduct parallel multi-hop explorations from each candidate. Then a supervisor agent formulates the iterative retrieval strategy for these retriever agents and synthesizes the resulting knowledge paths to generate the final answer. This multi-agent collaboration framework improves retrieval robustness and mitigates the impact of ambiguous or erroneous anchors. Extensive experiments on four public benchmarks demonstrate that AnchorRAG significantly outperforms existing baselines and establishes new state-of-the-art results on the real-world reasoning tasks.
