U4RASD at KnowledgeGraphEval-2026: Ontology-Constrained Encoder and LLM Systems for Arabic Relation Extraction

The U4RASD team's ensemble of Yehia-RE, Qwen-RE, and TypedPair achieved a micro-F1 score of 94.06 and ranked 1st in Subtask 2 of KnowledgeGraphEval 2026, the directed Arabic relation extraction task covering 40 relations plus no_relation. The team's encoder systems used typed entity markers with separate relation-existence and relation-classification heads, while its LLM systems fine-tuned Yehia and Qwen3.5 with QLoRA and ontology-constrained prediction. Yehia-RE (full-vocabulary) scored 92.98, the best encoder scored 92.69, and Qwen-RE scored 91.94, which the authors say highlights the importance of constrained prediction and complementary modeling approaches for Arabic relation extraction.

arXiv:2610.12742v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper details our submission to KnowledgeGraphEval 2026 Subtask 2 on directed Arabic relation extraction. We explored encoder-based and large language model approaches for predicting one of 40 relations or no_relation from an Arabic sentence and a subject-object pair. Our encoder systems use typed entity markers and separate relation-existence and relation-classification heads, while our LLM systems fine-tune Yehia and Qwen3.5 with QLoRA and ontology-constrained prediction. Our best system, an ensemble of Yehia-RE, Qwen-RE, and TypedPair, achieved a micro-F1 score of 94.06 and ranked 1st in Subtask 2. Yehia-RE (full-vocabulary) achieved 92.98, while the best encoder and Qwen-RE achieved 92.69 and 91.94 respectively. Our results highlight the importance of constrained prediction and complementary modeling approaches for Arabic relation extraction.
