Structuring Benchmark into Knowledge Graphs to Assist Large Language Models in Retrieving and Designing Models

In recent years, the design and transfer of neural network models have been widely studied due to their exceptional performance and capabilities. However, the complex nature of datasets and the vast architecture space pose significant challenges for both manual and automated algorithms in creating high-performance models. Inspired by researchers who design, train, and document the performance of various models across different datasets, this paper introduces a novel schema that transforms the benchmark data into a Knowledge Benchmark Graph (KBG), which primarily stores the facts in the form of perf ormance(data, model). Constructing the KBG facilitates the structured storage of design knowledge, aiding subsequent model design and transfer. However, it is a non-trivial task to retrieve or design suitable neural networks based on the KBG, as real-world data are often off the records. To tackle this challenge, we propose transferring existing models stored in KBG by establishing correlations between unseen and previously seen datasets. Given that measuring dataset similarity is a complex and openended issue, we explore the potential for evaluating the correctness of the similarity function. Then, we further integrate the KBG with Large Language Models (LLMs), assisting LLMs to think and retrieve existing model knowledge in a manner akin to humans when designing or transferring models. We demonstrate our method specifically in the context of Graph Neural Network (GNN) architecture design, constructing a KBG (with 26,206 models, 211,669 performance records and 2,540,064 facts) and validating the effectiveness of leveraging the KBG to promote GNN architecture design.
