Abstract

GraphRAG is increasingly adopted for converting unstructured corpora into graph structures to enable multi-hop reasoning. However, standard graph algorithms rely heavily on static connectivity and explicit edges, often failing in real-world scenarios where knowledge graphs (KGs) are noisy, sparse, or incomplete. To address this limitation, we introduce INSES (Intelligent Navigation and Similarity Enhanced Search), a dynamic framework designed to reason beyond explicit edges. INSES couples LLM-guided navigation, which prunes noise and steers exploration, with embedding-based similarity expansion to recover hidden links and bridge semantic gaps. Recognizing the computational cost of graph reasoning, we complement INSES with a lightweight router that delegates simple queries to Naïve RAG and escalates complex cases to INSES, balancing efficiency with reasoning depth. INSES consistently outperforms SOTA RAG and GraphRAG baselines across multiple benchmarks. Notably, on the MINE benchmark, it demonstrates superior robustness across KGs constructed by varying methods (KGGEN, GraphRAG, OpenIE), improving accuracy by 5%, 10%, and 27%, respectively.
