ConKE: Conceptualization-Augmented Knowledge Editing in Large Language Models for Commonsense Reasoning (2025.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing knowledge editing methods face limited knowledge coverage in existing knowledge bases, infeasibility of annotating labels for an overabundance of commonsense knowledge, and strict knowledge formats. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that integrates conceptualization and instantiation into the KE pipeline for LLMs to enhance their commonsense reasoning capabilities. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework diagnoses implausible commonsense knowledge within an LLM and augments the source knowledge to be edited with conceptualization for stronger generalizability. |
