Clue-Guided Path Exploration: An Efficient Knowledge Base Question-Answering Framework with Low Computational Resource Consumption

In recent times, large language models (LLMs) have showcased remarkable capabilities. However, updating their knowledge poses challenges, potentially leading to inaccuracies when confronted with unfamiliar queries. While integrating knowledge graphs with LLMs has been explored, existing approaches treat LLMs as primary decision-makers, imposing high demands on their capabilities. This is particularly unsuitable for LLMs with lower computational costs and relatively poorer performance. In this paper, we introduce a Clue-Guided Path Exploration framework (CGPE) that efficiently merges a knowledge base with an LLM, placing less stringent requirements on the model's capabilities. Inspired by the method humans use to manually retrieve knowledge, CGPE employs information from the question as clues to systematically explore the required knowledge path within the knowledge base. Experiments on open-source datasets reveal that CGPE outperforms previous methods and is highly applicable to LLMs with fewer parameters. In some instances, even ChatGLM3, with its 6 billion parameters, can rival the performance of GPT-4. Furthermore, the results indicate a minimal invocation frequency of CGPE on LLMs, suggesting reduced computational overhead. For organizations and individuals facing constraints in computational resources, our research offers significant practical value.

An unsupervised extractive summarization method based on multi-round computation

Text summarization methods have attracted much attention all the time. In recent years, deep learning has been applied to text summarization, and it turned out to be pretty effective. However, most of the current text summarization methods based on deep learning need large-scale datasets, which is difficult to achieve in practical applications. In this paper, an unsupervised extractive text summarization method based on multi-round calculation is proposed. Based on the directed graph algorithm, we change the traditional method of calculating the sentence ranking at one time to multi-round calculation, and the summary sentences are dynamically optimized after each round of calculation to better match the characteristics of the text. In this paper, experiments are carried out on four data sets, each separately containing Chinese, English, long and short texts. The experiment results show that our method has better performance than both baseline methods and other unsupervised methods and is robust on different datasets.
