An increasing adoption of Large Language Models (LLMs) in complex reasoning tasks necessitates their interpretability and reliability. Recent advances to that end include retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and knowledge graph-enhanced RAG (GraphRAG), whereas they are constrained by static knowledge bases and ineffective multimodal data integration. In response, we propose a Query-Driven Multimodal GraphRAG framework that dynamically constructs local knowledge graphs tailored to query semantics. Our approach 1) derives graph patterns from query semantics to guide knowledge extraction, 2) employs a multi-path retrieval strategy to pinpoint core knowledge, and 3) supplements missing multimodal information ad hoc. Experimental results on the MultimodalQA and WebQA datasets demonstrate that our framework achieves the state-of-the-art performance among unsupervised competitors, particularly excelling in cross-modal understanding of complex queries.
