The proposed framework, SEPTA, tackles the challenges in commonsense question answering by retrieving relevant subgraphs from a knowledge graph and aligning them with text modalities. The framework first transforms the knowledge graph into a database of subgraph vectors and employs a BFS-style subgraph sampling strategy to avoid information loss. A bidirectional contrastive learning approach is also proposed for graph-text alignment, enhancing both subgraph retrieval and knowledge fusion. Finally, all retrieved information is combined in the prediction module. The effectiveness and robustness of SEPTA are demonstrated through extensive experiments on five datasets.

The paper proposes a new way to answer questions using common sense by looking at relationships in a big database called a knowledge graph. Currently, this task is done by finding specific parts of the graph that match what’s being asked and then combining them to get an answer. However, this approach can miss important information and not work well with text. The new method, called SEPTA, solves these problems by breaking down the graph into smaller pieces, aligning those pieces with words, and then using all of that combined information to come up with a good answer.
