Search-on-Graph-R1: Training Large Language Models to Search Knowledge Graphs with Reinforcement Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.18481v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) requires navigating from topic entities to an answer several relations away. Recent methods prompt a frontier LLM to explore the graph through a retrieval tool, but their reliance on frontier-scale inference makes them costly to deploy. We present Search-on-Graph-R1 (\sogrone{}), which internalizes this navigation into a compact 8B model through supervised fine-tuning (SFT) followed by reinforcement learning (RL). Our central idea is to scaffold a frontier teacher with each question's gold SPARQL query, so the teacher traverses a known answer-bearing path with a live \texttt{Search} tool rather than having to discover the path itself. Since every call executes against a live Freebase server, the resul
