Key Points

  • The paper proposes SHARP (Schema-Hybrid Agent for Reliable Prediction) to improve knowledge graph triple verification when automatically built KGs contain noisy, untrustworthy edges.
  • SHARP reframes verification as a dynamic loop of strategic planning, active investigation, and evidential reasoning, rather than relying on static inference.
  • It combines memory-augmented mechanisms with schema-aware strategic planning to stabilize reasoning, and uses an enhanced ReAct-style process with a hybrid toolset that cross-verifies internal KG structure against external textual evidence.
  • Experiments on FB15K-237 and Wikidata5M-Ind report accuracy improvements of 4.2% and 12.9% over prior state-of-the-art baselines.
  • The method emphasizes interpretability by producing transparent, fact-based evidence chains for each triple judgment, and claims robustness on complex/long-tail verification cases.

Abstract

Knowledge Graphs (KGs) serve as a critical foundation for AI systems, yet their automated construction inevitably introduces noise, compromising data trustworthiness. Existing triple verification methods, based on graph embeddings or language models, often suffer from single-source bias by relying on either internal structural constraints or external semantic evidence, and usually follow a static inference paradigm. As a result, they struggle with complex or long-tail facts and provide limited interpretability. To address these limitations, we propose SHARP (Schema-Hybrid Agent for Reliable Prediction), a training-free autonomous agent that reformulates triple verification as a dynamic process of strategic planning, active investigation, and evidential reasoning. Specifically, SHARP combines a Memory-Augmented Mechanism with Schema-Aware Strategic Planning to improve reasoning stability, and employs an enhanced ReAct loop with a Hybrid Knowledge Toolset to dynamically integrate internal KG structure and external textual evidence for cross-verification. Experiments on FB15K-237 and Wikidata5M-Ind show that SHARP significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art baselines, achieving accuracy gains of 4.2% and 12.9%, respectively. Moreover, SHARP provides transparent, fact-based evidence chains for each judgment, demonstrating strong interpretability and robustness for complex verification tasks.
