Visual Graph Scaffolds for Structural Reasoning in Large Language Models
The paper discusses the use of visual graph scaffolds to enhance structural reasoning in large language models (LLMs). It highlights that graphs can serve not only as external knowledge sources but also as internal reasoning aids. The study shows that visual graph guidance improves reasoning efficiency and answer quality compared to flattened text structures.
- ▪Graphs can enhance large language models by organizing reasoning.
- ▪Visual graph guidance remains effective even without direct answer clues.
- ▪The study reveals a significant difference in performance between visual graphs and flattened text structures.

In this paper, we take a different view: the value of graphs for LLMs lie not only in supplying information, but also in organizing reasoning.
