Abstract
A data processing system implements systems and methods for performing multi-domain queries that combine explicit graph walks and fuzzy semantic reasoning of language models. These systems and methods leverage the fuzzy semantic reasoning capabilities of a language model during query execution to generate query results that are based on inferences that are not expressly defined in the graph. These techniques utilize grounding and prompt construction techniques to ensure that the language model generates an output that is consistent with a global schema that represents the types of data available from the graph data sources to significantly reduce the risk that the language model will hallucinate and generate erroneous results.
