Construction of a Battery Research Knowledge Graph using a Global Open Catalog

The exponential growth of global academic output has confronted researchers and AI agents with an unprecedented information explosion,'' where fragmented and unstructured knowledge organization impedes deep interdisciplinary integration. Current academic retrieval tools predominantly rely on superficial keyword matching or vector-space semantic retrieval, which lack the topological reasoning capabilities required to navigate complex logical connections. Agentic deep-research-based frameworks are often prone to logical hallucinations and consuming high inference costs. To bridge this gap, in this report, we introduce SciAtlas, a large-scale, multi-disciplinary, heterogeneous academic resource knowledge graph designed as a panoramic scientific evolution network. By integrating over 43M papers from 26 disciplines, and a total of 157M entities and 3B triplets, SciAtlas provides a structured topological cognitive substrate that dismantles disciplinary barriers and furnishes AI agents with a global perspective. Furthermore, we develop a neuro-symbolic retrieval algorithm featuring tri-path collaborative recall and graph reranking, achieving a seamless transition from simple semantic matching to deterministic association discovery. We also present key application directions of SciAtlas, including literature review, automated research trend synthesis, idea positioning, and academic trajectory exploration, to demonstrate that SciAtlas can serve as an effective cognitive map'' to empower the full loop of automated scientific research while significantly reducing reasoning costs. We have released the interfaces for KG retrieval and various downstream tasks in our GitHub repo.

We present a semantic-structural atlas of transportation research built from 120{,}323 papers across 34 peer-reviewed journals published between 1967 and 2025, roughly an order of magnitude larger than and a decade beyond Sun and Rahwan's~(2017) coauthorship study. We use OpenAlex and Crossref as open, CC0-licensed data sources, resolve author identity through OpenAlex author IDs, ORCID records, and manual alias resolution, and embed every paper with SPECTER2 with Arora-style whitening concatenated with concept TF--IDF and venue linear-discriminant projections. On this substrate we report three findings. First, Leiden on the author-level semantic k-nearest-neighbor graph yields 23 topic communities that agree only weakly with the 172 coauthor communities (normalized mutual information $0.23$), opening room for a predictive layer that neither source encodes alone. Second, a multiplex Leiden partition combining both edge types recovers 181 communities and localizes where collaboration and topic structure decouple. Third -- the paper's core methodological contribution -- we define \emph{phantom collaborators}, pairs of authors who are top-$K$ semantic neighbors yet $\geq 3$ hops apart in the coauthor graph, and show via a temporal hold-out (training cutoff 2019) that phantom pairs become real coauthors in 2020--2025 at a rate $16$ to $33$ times above random, popularity-weighted, and same-venue baselines, with a $68$-fold monotone gradient between the highest- and lowest-similarity buckets. All artifacts are released as a live, reproducible web atlas at https://choi-seongjin.github.io/transport-atlas/.

Current LLM-based research agents have advanced through agent orchestration, yet largely overlook scientific knowledge orchestration. Existing works often reduce papers to abstracts, surface mentions, and flat \texttt{cites} edges, omitting key entities, claims, evidence, mechanisms, and method lineages essential for scientific reasoning. To this end, we introduce \textbf{Agents-K1}, an end-to-end knowledge orchestration pipeline that converts raw documents into agent-native scientific knowledge graphs. Agents-K1 integrates three components under a unifying theoretical foundation: a multimodal parser whose five-module schema captures entities, multimodal evidence, citations, and typed inter-entity relations across the full paper rather than abstracts alone; a 4B information-extraction backbone trained with GRPO under a rule-based reward; and a graphanything CLI, a tri-source agent interface that unifies web search, multimodal graph retrieval, and cross-document traversal. On top of this, we process 2.46 million scientific papers across six subjects to produce \textbf{Scholar-KG}, of which we release a one-million-paper subset, and the full Scholar-KG is accessible via the SCP link below. The same pipeline can be extended to general-domain corpora and to schema-conformant data synthesis. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Agents-K1 achieves superior performance in scientific information extraction, knowledge graph construction, and multi-hop scientific reasoning.
