• Abstract: The emergence of large language models (LLMs) presents an unprecedented opportunity to automate construction contract management, reducing human errors and saving significant time and costs. However, LLMs may produce convincing yet inaccurate and misleading content due to a lack of domain expertise. To address this issue, expert-driven contract knowledge can be represented in a structured manner to constrain the automatic contract management process. This paper introduces the Nested Contract Knowledge Graph (NCKG), a knowledge representation approach that captures the complexity of contract knowledge using a nested structure. It includes a nested knowledge representation framework, a NCKG ontology built on the framework, and an implementation method. Furthermore, we present the LLM-assisted contract review pipeline enhanced with external knowledge in NCKG. Our pipeline achieves a promising performance in contract risk reviewing, shedding light on the combination of LLM and KG towards more reliable and interpretable contract management.

  We propose a general Knowledge-Injected Curriculum Pretraining framework (KICP) to achieve comprehensive KG learning and exploitation for Knowledge-based question answering tasks. The KI module first injects knowledge into the LM by generating KG-centered pretraining corpus, and generalizes the process into three key steps. The KA module learns knowledge from the generated corpus with LM equipped with an adapter as well as keeps its original natural language understanding ability. The CR module follows human reasoning patterns to construct three corpora with increasing difficulties of reasoning, and further trains the LM from easy to hard in a curriculum manner.
