ProPRL: Property-Aware Prerequisite Relation Learning in Educational Knowledge Graphs

Prerequisite relation learning is central to adaptive instruction, yet existing methods often formulate it as conventional link prediction, limiting their ability to adaptively integrate complementary educational evidence for individual candidate pairs and to discourage contradictory reverse predictions. We propose ProPRL, a Property-aware Prerequisite Relation Learning framework. ProPRL first learns complementary concept representations from a concept-resource hypergraph and a directed learning-behavior graph, where direction-preserving personalized propagation aggregates multi-hop behavioral evidence. It then employs a Pair-conditioned Gate to adaptively weight and fuse the two views for each candidate ordered concept pair. Finally, an \textit{Irreversibility Constraint} introduces an anti-symmetry regularizer that penalizes simultaneously high confidence in both directions of the same concept pair. Experiments on multiple real-world educational datasets show that ProPRL achieves state-of-the-art performance on prerequisite relation learning.

Trajectory-Guided Forget-Recover Network for Continual LLM Unlearning

Machine unlearning aims to eliminate the influence of sensitive data on a model. In the real world, unlearning requests arrive continually, which gives rise to two challenges. First, an unlearning intervention may redistribute target-related computation across remaining pathways, allowing previously forgotten knowledge to re-emerge. Second, repeated unlearning interventions may progressively reduce the model capacity needed to preserve retained utility. To address these challenges, we propose the Trajectory-guided Forget-Recover Network (TFR-Net). TFR-Net tracks channel-level risk across requests. It separates persistent target-related channels from transient hotspots and suppresses only the persistent ones. TFR-Net also recovers model capacity by reactivating dormant channels. These channels make strong contributions to retained utility and show low current and historical forget risk. The recovery is accepted only when retained-utility degradation remains within a predefined tolerance. Experiments on four datasets show that TFR-Net consistently achieves a more favorable trade-off between unlearning effectiveness and retained utility than representative baselines.

Cumulative Path-Level Semantic Reasoning for Inductive Knowledge Graph Completion

Conventional Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) methods aim to infer missing information in incomplete Knowledge Graphs (KGs) by leveraging existing information, which struggle to perform effectively in scenarios involving emerging entities. Inductive KGC methods can handle the emerging entities and relations in KGs, offering greater dynamic adaptability. While existing inductive KGC methods have achieved some success, they also face challenges, such as susceptibility to noisy structural information during reasoning and difficulty in capturing long-range dependencies in reasoning paths. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the Cumulative Path-Level Semantic Reasoning for inductive knowledge graph completion (CPSR) framework, which simultaneously captures both the structural and semantic information of KGs to enhance the inductive KGC task. Specifically, the proposed CPSR employs a query-dependent masking module to adaptively mask noisy structural information while retaining important information closely related to the targets. Additionally, CPSR introduces a global semantic scoring module that evaluates both the individual contributions and the collective impact of nodes along the reasoning path within KGs. The experimental results demonstrate that CPSR achieves state-of-the-art performance.
