We propose GraphCheck, a novel framework that converts claims into entity-relationship graphs for comprehensive verification. By identifying relation between explicit entities and latent entities across multiple paths, GraphCheck enhances the adaptability and robustness of verification. Furthermore, we introduce DP-GraphCheck, a two-stage variant that improves performance by incorporating direct prompting as an initial filtering step. Experiments on the HOVER and EX-FEVER datasets show that our approach outperforms existing methods, particularly in multi-hop reasoning tasks. Furthermore, our two-stage framework generalizes well to other fact-checking pipelines, demonstrating its versatility.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.20785v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2502.20785v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"graphcheck-multi-path-fact-checking-with","repo_url":"https://github.com/windowh1/graphcheck","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"fact-checking","task_name":"Fact Checking"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
