• Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) provide flexible natural language processing capabilities, while knowledge graphs (KGs) offer explicit and structured knowledge. Integrating these two in a complementary manner enables the development of reliable and verifiable AI systems. In particular, knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) has attracted attention as a means to reduce LLM hallucinations and to leverage knowledge beyond the training data. However, existing KGQA benchmark datasets are biased toward encyclopedic knowledge, limited to a single modality, and lack fine-grained spatiotemporal data, which limits their applicability to real-world scenarios targeted by Embodied AI. We introduce HOME-KGQA, a novel KGQA benchmark dataset built on a multimodal KG of daily household activities. HOME-KGQA consists of complex, multi-hop natural language questions paired with graph database query languages. Compared to existing benchmarks, it includes more challenging questions that involve multi-level spatiotemporal reasoning, multimodal grounding, and aggregate functions. Experimental results show that the LLM-based KGQA methods fail to achieve performance comparable to that on existing datasets when evaluated on HOME-KGQA. This highlights significant challenges that should be addressed for the real-world deployment of KGQA systems. Our dataset is available at https://github.com/aistairc/home-kgqa

  Large Language Models (LLMs) struggle with hallucinations and factual errors in knowledge-intensive scenarios like knowledge graph question answering (KGQA)<n>We attribute this to the semantic gap between structured knowledge graphs (KGs) and unstructured queries, caused by inherent differences in their focuses and structures.<n>Existing methods usually employ resource-intensive, non-scalable reasoning on vanilla KGs, but overlook this gap.<n>We propose a flexible framework, Enrich-on-Graph (EoG), which leverages LLMs' prior knowledge to enrich KGs, bridge the semantic gap between graphs and queries.
