Combining large language models with enterprise knowledge graphs: a perspective on enhanced natural language understanding.

Abstract

Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have revolutionized knowledge representation, enabling a graph-structured framework where entities and their interrelations are systematically organized. Since their inception, KGs have significantly enhanced various knowledge-aware applications, including recommendation systems and question-answering systems. Sensigrafo, an enterprise KG developed by Expert.AI, exemplifies this advancement by focusing on Natural Language Understanding through a machine-oriented lexicon representation. Despite the progress, maintaining and enriching KGs remains a challenge, often requiring manual efforts. Recent developments in Large Language Models (LLMs) offer promising solutions for KG enrichment (KGE) by leveraging their ability to understand natural language. In this article, we discuss the state-of-the-art LLM-based techniques for KGE and show the challenges associated with automating and deploying these processes in an industrial setup. We then propose our perspective on overcoming problems associated with data quality and scarcity, economic viability, privacy issues, language evolution, and the need to automate the KGE process while maintaining high accuracy.
