Summary

FlowNeg uses a hierarchical generative flow network to sample informative knowledge-graph counterexamples across modes.

Across a five-seed grid of five architectures and five benchmarks, FlowNeg had higher mean reciprocal rank than two comparison methods in 24 of 25 cells. A separate 15-seed control on FB15k-237 with RotatE reported 0.359 versus 0.346 MRR, with fixed diagnostic and compute budgets.
