FinEvolveKG: Controlled and Attributable Prompt Evolution for Financial Knowledge Graph Construction

arXiv:2611.08643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial institutions construct knowledge graphs (KGs) from shared SEC 10-Ks to serve risk analysis, portfolio management, and investment research, whose analytical needs differ. Extraction must adapt without fragmenting shared grounding, typing, and temporal rules. Hand-authored persona prompts and fine-tuning add cost. Weight-free prompt optimization offers an alternative, but unconstrained evolution of a monolithic prompt can rewrite shared rules alongside persona guidance, obscuring changes and complicating review. We introduce FinEvolveKG, a KG-construction harness separating reusable general and persona-policy blocks and mechanically confining GEPA, a reflective prompt optimizer, to the designated block. During persona adaptation, the approved general block remains byte-stable and every optimizer edit is localized to a separately versioned persona policy. A dual objective balances generic temporal-KG quality with persona-relevant facts, motifs, and multi-hop connectivity. We evaluate five mutation scopes on ticker-disjoint 10-K splits, with three seeds for the persona-conditioned arms (v3-v5) across three personas. On the three-seed mean, the complete two-stage block-constrained workflow (v4) improves over the frozen prompt baseline (v1) by 19.4-30.9% and over the tested unconstrained full-prompt workflow (v5) by 2.2-6.4%, leading v5 on both objective components and winning all nine paired-seed comparisons with the lowest seed variance in every persona. Without further optimization, v4 also exceeds v5 across all evaluated out-of-distribution (OOD) shifts. An SME audit supports using the generated triplets as ground truth; a blinded two-SME audit favors v4 over v5 in 70.1% of contrast-enriched judgments. These results show that mechanically attributable evolution can coexist with strong empirical performance, without attributing the gains causally to the boundary.

A Conditional Mutual Information Analysis of Response Variety in Language Models

arXiv:2611.03836v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models provide a variety of responses at inference (generation) that conventionally depend on a temperature parameter. Using a conditional mutual information approach, a quantitative, entropy based analysis of response variety is given. Three limiting behaviors are defined: arbiter, independent (conditionally) and neutral (deterministic) that span no to maximal mutual information. We give examples of each behavior and suggest their application to: temperature analysis, language analysis, prompt compression, and knowledge graphs.

CaRe-KT: Continuity-Aware Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning for Knowledge Tracing

arXiv:2611.03744v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge tracing (KT) estimates learners' evolving knowledge states from interaction histories to support adaptive learning. Retrieval-augmented KT improves these estimates using cross-learner behavioral evidence, but existing approaches typically separate evidence retrieval from downstream prediction. This creates a retrieval-inference alignment gap because evidence relevance varies with the learner's evolving state and prediction context. We propose CaRe-KT, a query-adaptive framework that maintains relevance continuity between evidence acquisition and inference without equating retrieval relevance with predictive utility. CaRe-KT introduces an Evidence-Graph Cache (EGC) that combines persistent question-level relational compatibility with interaction-level temporal validity to construct query-specific evidence subgraphs. Historical learning trajectories retrieved through these subgraphs are encoded alongside the target learner's history in a shared representation space using outcome-supervised contrastive learning. An attention mechanism combines acquisition relevance with learned query-evidence compatibility, allowing relevance to inform, rather than determine, each trajectory's predictive influence. Experiments across five benchmarks show that CaRe-KT outperforms strong KT baselines and remains robust under sparse-history and cold-start conditions. These findings support relevance continuity as a design principle for retrieval-augmented knowledge tracing.

FinLLM-KG: Knowledge Graph-Enhanced LLMs for Financial Sentiment Analysis in Algorithmic Trading

arXiv:2610.36083v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Generative AI have substantially improved financial sentiment analysis through post-trained financial large language models (LLMs). However, existing approaches remain confined to predicting the sentiment of each article in isolation and operate as black boxes, which limits contextual understanding and hinders deployment in high-stakes financial decision-making. To this end, we introduce FinLLM-KG, a model-agnostic framework that combines causal LLMs with a financial knowledge graph, in order to inject temporally grounded, company-level knowledge from SEC 10-K filings at inference time, without updating model weights. Within FinLLM-KG, context is supplied either as a natural-language company profile or as a small set of rel

Multi-Agent Retrieval-Augmented Causality Assessment (MARCA) of Individual Case Safety Reports in Pharmacovigilance

arXiv:2610.33279v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Introduction: Increasing volumes of individual case safety reports (ICSRs) challenge expert-led causality assessment in pharmacovigilance. We developed MARCA (Multi-Agent Retrieval-Augmented Causality Assessment), a four-agent framework for Naranjo-based assessment, and evaluated agreement with human experts and exploratory differences between non-RAG and RAG-labelled scores. Methods: MARCA combined scientific literature retrieval, drug-label assessment, objective-evidence classification, and clinical causality reasoning using Gemini 2.5 Pro and DeepSeek-V3.2. Agent-generated rationales informed human-assisted scoring. A consensus expert reference standard covered 215 ICSRs and 1,562 drug-event combinations (DECs) from FAERS (Q1-Q2 2025). Agr
