AutoPKG: An Automated Framework for Dynamic E-commerce Product-Attribute Knowledge Graph Construction
Product attribute extraction in e-commerce is bottlenecked by ontologies that are inconsistent, incomplete, and costly to maintain. We present AutoPKG, a multi-agent Large Language Model (LLM) framework that automatically constructs a Product-attribute Knowledge Graph (PKG) from multimodal product content. AutoPKG induces product types and type-specific attribute keys on demand, extracts attribute values from text and images, and consolidates updates through a centralized decision agent that maintains a globally consistent canonical graph. We also propose an evaluation protocol for dynamic PKGs that measures type and key validity, consolidation quality, and edge-level accuracy for value assertions after canonicalization. On a large real-world marketplace catalog dataset from Lazada (Alibaba), AutoPKG achieves up to 0.953 Weighted Knowledge Efficiency (WKE) for product types, 0.724 WKE for attribute keys, and 0.531 edge-level F1 for multimodal value extraction. Across three public benchmarks, our method improves edge-level exact-match F1 by 0.152 and yields a precision gain of 0.208 on the attribute extraction application. Online A/B tests show that AutoPKG-derived attributes increase Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) in Badge by 3.81 percent, in Search by 5.32 percent, and in Recommendation by 7.89 percent, supporting the practical value of AutoPKG in production.
AgentSelect: Benchmark for Narrative Query-to-Agent Recommendation
LLM agents are rapidly becoming the practical interface for task automation, yet the ecosystem lacks a principled way to choose among an exploding space of deployable configurations. Existing LLM leaderboards and tool/agent benchmarks evaluate components in isolation and remain fragmented across tasks, metrics, and candidate pools, leaving a critical research gap: there is little query-conditioned supervision for learning to recommend end-to-end agent configurations that couple a backbone model with a toolkit. We address this gap with AgentSelect, a benchmark that reframes agent selection as narrative query-to-agent recommendation over capability profiles and systematically converts heterogeneous evaluation artifacts into unified, positive-only interaction data. AgentSelectcomprises 111,179 queries, 107,721 deployable agents, and 251,103 interaction records aggregated from 40+ sources, spanning LLM-only, toolkit-only, and compositional agents. Our analyses reveal a regime shift from dense head reuse to long-tail, near one-off supervision, where popularity-based CF/GNN methods become fragile and content-aware capability matching is essential. We further show that Part~III synthesized compositional interactions are learnable, induce capability-sensitive behavior under controlled counterfactual edits, and improve coverage over realistic compositions; models trained on AgentSelect also transfer to a public agent marketplace (MuleRun), yielding consistent gains on an unseen catalog. Overall, AgentSelect provides the first unified data and evaluation infrastructure for agent recommendation, which establishes a reproducible foundation to study and accelerate the emerging agent ecosystem.
