# AI Safety Scientific Literature Knowledge Extraction

This repository contains all results created as part of the Eleuther AI Summer of Open AI Research 2025 program for project #5: "Scientific Literature Knowledge Extraction Tool".

## About the Project

The project aims to automatically extract structured knowledge from AI Safety scientific literature and build a Knowledge Graph that connects concepts, methods, and interventions from different research papers.

---

## Data is Ready — Time for Research!

**All data processing is complete.** We have built a comprehensive knowledge graph from [**Alignment Research Dataset**](https://huggingface.co/datasets/StampyAI/alignment-research-dataset) — a curated collection of AI Safety research from HuggingFace.

### What We Have

**Global Knowledge Graph** connecting concepts, interventions, and research ideas across **11,800 AI Safety papers**:

**Graph Structure:**
- **Concepts** — risks, methods, ideas, and research directions extracted from papers
- **Interventions** — proposed solutions and mitigation strategies
- **Relationships** — how concepts connect across different papers (caused_by, mitigated_by, validated_by, etc.)
- **Semantic embeddings** — vector representations enabling similarity search and concept clustering
- *[More details and statistics](#processing-statistics)*

### Ready-to-Use Formats

The knowledge graph is available in three formats:

1. **CSV Tables** — Easy analysis in Excel, pandas, R
   - 📁 [Download CSV Export](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1zwJ0RnixYV9NW8l8QHPsslORDrAzgXlG)

2. **JSON Graph** — For custom scripts and NetworkX analysis
   - 📁 [Download graph.json](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1RPbETx21KMyEATtVOBt8LOClVd56eZ4x)

3. **FalkorDB Database** — Interactive queries with vector search
   - 📁 [Download FalkorDB dumps](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1y_Q3Ti4nBlUG0l51hGqc0rDID88jbtGw)
   - Requires: Docker, 8GB+ RAM, 20GB+ disk space
   - See [Stage 4](#stage-4-merging-into-global-graph-falkordb) for setup instructions

uv run python -m intervention_graph_creation.src.data_interfaces.ard_json_loader
```

Data will be downloaded and saved to the directory specified in `config.yaml` (`paths.input_dir`).

---

## Stage 2: Local Graph Extraction

**Directory**: `./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/extract`

### Process Description

At this stage, each article is processed using LLM (OpenAI API) to extract a structured knowledge graph:

- **Nodes** — concepts, ideas, methods, risks, interventions from the article
- **Edges** — relationships between concepts (e.g.: "caused_by", "mitigated_by", "validated_by")

The LLM receives the full article text and a special prompt (`PROMPT_EXTRACT`) that instructs the model to identify all cause-and-effect chains from risks to proposed interventions.

### Processing Architecture

![Asynchronous Batch Processing Architecture](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MartinLeitgab/AISafetyIntervention_LiteratureExtraction/main/docs/image-1.png)
*Figure 2: Asynchronous batch processing with OpenAI API — polling mechanism, parallel execution, and automatic error handling*

**Key Features:**

1. **Asynchronous Processing + Batches**
   - Articles are grouped into batches (default 10 articles)
   - Batches are sent to OpenAI Batch API asynchronously
   - Support for parallel processing of multiple batches

2. **Polling Mechanism**
   - Periodic polling of batch status (every 60 seconds)
   - Processing progress logging
   - Automatic retrieval of results upon completion

3. **Error Handling**
   - Articles with errors are automatically moved to `extraction_error_dir`
   - Error context saved for debugging
   - Continue processing remaining articles

4. **Results Validation**
   - Automatic validation of JSON response structure
   - Validation of required fields (nodes, edges)
   - Additional post-processing using `extra_validation.py` script:
     - Check for minimum 3 files in article folder
     - Check existence of JSON file with correct name
     - Validate that nodes and edges arrays are not empty
     - Move invalid folders to `extraction_error_dir`
     - Run: `uv run python -m intervention_graph_creation.src.local_graph_extraction.extract.extra_validation`

### Configuration

`config.yaml` file:

```yaml
paths:
  input_dir: "./intervention_graph_creation/data/raw/ard_json"
  output_dir: "./intervention_graph_creation/data/processed"
  extraction_error_dir: "./extraction_error"
  
extraction:
  total_articles: 1000  # Number of articles to process
  batch_size: 10        # Batch size for OpenAI API
```

### Output Data Structure

For each successfully processed article, a directory is created with three files:

```
processed/
└── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678/
    ├── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678_raw_response.txt  # Full API response
    ├── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678_summary.txt       # LLM explanation
    └── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678.json              # Graph: nodes + edges
```

**JSON File Format:**

```json
{
  "nodes": [
    {
      "name": "Reward model overoptimization in RLHF training",
      "type": "concept",
      "concept_category": "risk",
      "description": "Detailed explanation...",
      "aliases": ["Alternative name 1", "Alternative name 2"]
    },
    {
      "name": "Apply KL divergence penalty during RLHF optimization",
      "type": "intervention",
      "intervention_lifecycle": 3,
      "intervention_maturity": 4,
      "description": "Implementation details..."
    }
  ],
  "edges": [
    {
      "type": "mitigated_by",
      "source_node": "Reward model overoptimization in RLHF training",
      "target_node": "Apply KL divergence penalty during RLHF optimization",
      "edge_confidence": 4,
      "description": "Connection explanation..."
    }
  ]
}
```

### Usage

```bash
# Run extraction on all articles from input_dir
uv run python -m intervention_graph_creation.src.local_graph_extraction.extract.extractor

# Results are saved to:
# - ./intervention_graph_creation/data/processed/ (successful)
# - ./intervention_graph_creation/data/extraction_error/ (with errors)
```

### Monitoring

Logs are written to `./logs/extraction_MM-DD_HH-MM.log`:

```
[INFO] Processing 100 batches concurrently
[INFO] Batch 5 started (Processed: 4 / In progress: 96 / Total: 100)
[INFO] Batch 5 completed in 245.3s (Processed: 5 / In progress: 95 / Total: 100)
[INFO] === 📊 Extraction Summary ===
[INFO] Total papers processed: 1000
[INFO] Successful:             987
[INFO] Failed:                 13
```

### Stage 2.1: LLM Judge (Validation of Problematic Results)

**Directory**: `./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/llm_judge`

LLM Judge runs **only on articles with errors** after the main extraction. This is a specialized auditor model that analyzes problematic graphs and attempts to fix them.

**What KG-Judge Checks:**

1. **Schema Compliance** (schema_check)
   - Presence of required fields (name, aliases, type, description)
   - Correctness of field types (concept_category for concepts, lifecycle/maturity for interventions)
   - Value validation (edge_confidence 1-5, lifecycle 1-6, maturity 1-4)

2. **Referential Integrity** (referential_check)
   - All nodes mentioned in edges exist in the nodes list
   - No references to non-existent sources or targets

3. **Isolated Nodes** (orphans)
   - Find nodes not connected to any edge
   - Suggestions for connection or removal

4. **Duplicates** (duplicates)
   - Detection of identical or very similar nodes/edges
   - Merging strategy with relationship reassignment

5. **Text Correspondence** (rationale_mismatches)
   - Verify that extracted data is confirmed by source text
   - Find inconsistencies between graph and source

6. **Coverage Completeness** (coverage)
   - Identify important connections from text that were not extracted
   - Assessment: covered | partially_covered | missing

**Usage:**

```bash
# Validate problematic articles
uv run python3 ./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/llm_judge/judge.py \
    --processed_dir=./extraction_error \
    --ard_dir=./intervention_graph_creation/data/raw/ard_json \
    --output_dir=./intervention_graph_creation/data/judge_output \
    --how_many_batches_in_flight_at_once=5 \
    --batch_size=50
```

---

## Stage 3: Embeddings Computation

**Directory**: `./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/embeddings`

### Process Description

At this stage, vector representations (embeddings) are generated for each node (and optionally for each edge) from local graphs using OpenAI Embeddings API.

**Embeddings are used for:**
- Semantic search for similar concepts
- Idea clustering
- Merging identical concepts from different articles at stage 4

### Processing Architecture

Architecture is similar to Stage 2 (see diagram above):
- Asynchronous batch processing
- Automatic retry with exponential backoff (2-5 seconds)
- Error handling with move to `embeddings_error_dir`

### Configuration

`config.yaml` file:

```yaml
paths:
  output_dir: "./intervention_graph_creation/data/processed"
  embeddings_error_dir: "./embeddings_error"

embeddings:
  model: "text-embedding-3-small"      # "text-embedding-3-large / text-embedding-3-small"
  batch_size: 64                       # Number of embeddings per batch
  max_cuncurrent_batches: 120          # Maximum parallel batches
  type: "narrow"                       # data for embeddings. narrow: node name only | full: complete information
```

### Output Data Structure

For each node, a separate JSON file is created in the `embeddings` subdirectory:

```
processed/
└── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678/
    ├── arxiv__arxiv_org_abs_1234_5678.json
    └── embeddings/
        ├── 009351979d.json  # Embedding for node 1
        ├── 026f37268f.json  # Embedding for node 2
        └── ...
```

**Embedding File Format:**

```json
{
  "id": "009351979d",
  "type": "node",
  "text": "Name: Reward model overoptimization in RLHF training",
  "embedding": [0.023, -0.145, 0.089, ...]  // Vector of dimension 1536
}
```

**ID Generation**: Deterministic 10-character hash (SHA-1) from key node fields, ensuring idempotent processing.

### Usage

```bash
uv run python -m intervention_graph_creation.src.local_graph_extraction.embeddings.generate_embeddings
```

### Monitoring

Logs are written to `./logs/embeddings_MM-DD_HH-MM.log`:

```
[INFO] JSON files: 987, Skipped: 45, Processed files: 942, Tasks: 15234
[INFO] Planned batches: 238 (batch_size=64, concurrency=120)
[INFO] Batch done (64 items, 2.34s). Progress: 640/15234, Remaining: 14594
[INFO] Done. Success: 15180, Errors: 54, Duration: 287.3s
```

## Stage 4: Merging into Global Graph (FalkorDB)

**Directory**: `./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/db`

### Process Description

At this stage, all local graphs from individual articles are merged into a single global knowledge graph in FalkorDB — a graph database. This allows:

- Finding connections between concepts from different articles
- Executing complex graph traversal queries
- Using vector search on embeddings
- Visualizing the global graph via web interface

### Resource Requirements

**RAM:**
- Minimum measurements for 11,800 articles: ~5.9 GB RAM
- **Recommended**: ~8 GB RAM (+ 30% reserve for indexing and query operations)

### Configuration

`config.yaml` file:

```yaml
falkordb:
  host: "localhost"
  port: 6379
  graph: "AISafetyIntervention"
```

⚠️ **Important**: Port in `config.yaml` must match the port when running Docker container.

---

### Option 1: Loading from Local Files

This method is suitable if you want to build the graph from scratch from processed articles.

**Steps:**

1. **Run FalkorDB locally:**
   ```bash
   docker run -p 6379:6379 -p 3000:3000 -it --rm falkordb/falkordb:latest
   ```

2. **Download and extract data:**
   - Download `processed.zip` from [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1RPbETx21KMyEATtVOBt8LOClVd56eZ4x)
   - Extract contents to `./intervention_graph_creation/data/processed/`

3. **Run FalkorDB loading:**
   ```bash
   uv run python -m intervention_graph_creation.src.local_graph_extraction.db.ai_safety_graph
   ```

**What happens:**
- Clear existing graph (if any)
- Load metadata for each article
- Create nodes with embeddings
- Create relationships (edges) between nodes
- Build vector indexes for semantic search
- Save global graph to `graph.json`

**Execution time**: ~20-30 minutes for 11,800 articles (depends on system)

---

### Option 2: Loading from Ready Dump (Quick Start)

This method allows you to immediately get a ready database without reloading.

**Available Dumps:**

📁 [Google Drive — FalkorDB Dumps](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1y_Q3Ti4nBlUG0l51hGqc0rDID88jbtGw)

1. **`FULLARDData_EmbeddingsALLNodeProperties_WithSimilarityEdgesSimilarityLarger0pt8_uncapped.rdb`**
   - Complete ARD data
   - Embeddings based on all node properties (full mode)
   - Includes additional similarity edges (cosine similarity > 0.8)

2. **`FULLARDData_EmbeddingsOnlyNodeName_WithSimilarityEdgesForSimilarityLarger0pt8_uncapped.rdb`**
   - Complete ARD data
   - Embeddings based on node name only (narrow mode)
   - Includes additional similarity edges (cosine similarity > 0.8)

> **Note**: Similarity edges created using script `./intervention_graph_creation/src/local_graph_extraction/db/create_similarity_edges.py`

**Steps:**

1. **Download dump file** from Google Drive

2. **Rename file:**
   ```bash
   mv FULLARDData_*.rdb dump.rdb
   ```

3. **Run FalkorDB with dump mounting:**
   ```bash
   docker run -p 6379:6379 -p 3000:3000 -it \
     --volume $(pwd):/var/lib/falkordb/data \
     --rm falkordb/falkordb:edge
   ```
   
   Replace `$(pwd)` with full path to folder containing `dump.rdb`

4. **Wait for index rebuilding:**
   - FalkorDB will automatically load the dump
   - Index rebuilding process: **~15-16 minutes**
   - After completion, database is ready to use

5. **Web interface:** Open browser and go to <http://localhost:3000/graph>
