Enhancing Metacognitive AI: Knowledge-Graph Population with Graph-Theoretic LLM Enrichment
The article discusses a new system called MetaKGEnrich that enhances metacognitive abilities in AI. This system automates the process of knowledge graph population and self-directed knowledge repair in large language models. The results show significant improvements in answer quality across multiple datasets, indicating progress towards humanlike metacognitive learning in AI.
- ▪MetaKGEnrich builds knowledge graphs from seed queries and detects sparse regions using graph metrics.
- ▪The system utilizes GPT-4o to generate targeted questions and retrieves web evidence for knowledge enhancement.
- ▪Improvements in answer quality were observed in 80% of HotpotQA questions, 87% of Google Research Natural Questions, and 83% of MS MARCO questions.

Here, we present MetaKGEnrich, a fully automated pipeline that endows large language model (LLM) applications with self-directed knowledge repair.
