Problems Identified (5)

Limited KGR survey coverage: Previous KGR reviews cover only specific perspectives, leaving a need for a more comprehensive view of approaches and applications.

KGR deployment challenges: KGR faces open challenges involving trustworthiness, multimodal reasoning, continual learning, uncertainty, and LLM-driven approaches.

Theory-practice gap in KGR: There is a gap between theoretical advancements and practical deployment of KGR models.
