While LLMs enable KG interfaces such as retrieval-augmented generation, their potential to leverage ontology definitions to improve graph readability remains unexplored. This research investigates LLMs as ontology-aware verbalization interfaces that generate human-readable and usable textual information encoded in the KG structure.","doi":"10.24963/ijcai.2026/941","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2026/941","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2026/0941.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2026/941.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2026/bibtex/941","volume":{"slug":"2026","title":"Proceedings of the Thirty-Fifth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 2026","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2026/","year":2026,"location":"Bremen, Germany","dates":"15-21 August 2026","editors":"Diego Calvanese","isbn":"978-1-956792-09-6","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence Organization","doi_prefix":"10.24963/ijcai.2026"},"section":"Doctoral Consortium","track":"Doctoral Consortium","number":941,"pages":{"first":8325,"last":8326},"keywords":["Humans and AI: Intelligent user interfaces","Knowledge Representation and Reasoning: Semantic Web","Natural Language Processing: Language models"],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
