This paper introduces DALK, a novel framework that dynamically co-augments large language models (LLMs) with knowledge graphs (KGs) to overcome the limitations of integrating long-tail knowledge in specialized domains. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of DALK on studying Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), a priority area in biomedicine. The proposed approach leverages LLMs to construct an evolving AD-specific KG and then utilizes a coarse-to-fine sampling method with self-aware knowledge retrieval to select relevant knowledge from the KG, augmenting LLM inference capabilities. Experimental results on the constructed AD question answering (ADQA) benchmark show the efficacy of DALK. The authors also provide detailed analyses offering valuable insights for mutually enhancing KGs and LLMs.

This paper talks about how to make computers better at understanding complex medical topics, like Alzheimer’s Disease. Right now, computers are good at understanding simple information, but struggle with more specialized knowledge. The authors propose a new way to help computers learn from experts in the field and share their knowledge. They test this approach on Alzheimer’s research and show it can improve computer accuracy. This work is important because it could help doctors and researchers use computers to analyze medical data and make better decisions.
