Knowledge-graph-based reasoning has drawn a lot of attention due to its interpretability. However, previous methods suffer from the incompleteness of the knowledge graph, namely the interested link or entity that can be missing in the knowledge graph(explicit missing). Also, most previous models assume the distance between the target and source entity is short, which is not true on a real-world KG like Freebase(implicit missing). The sensitivity to the incompleteness of KG and the incapability to capture the long-distance link between entities have limited the performance of these models on large KG. In this paper, we propose a model that leverages the text corpus to cure such limitations, either the explicit or implicit missing links. We model the question answering on KG as a cooperative task between two agents, a knowledge graph reasoning agent and an information extraction agent. Each agent learns its skill to complete its own task, hopping on KG or select knowledge from the corpus, via maximizing the reward for correctly answering the question. The reasoning agent decides how to find an equivalent path for the given entity and relation. The extraction agent provide shortcut for long-distance target entity or provide missing relations for explicit missing links with messages from the reasoning agent. Through such cooperative reward design, our model can augment the incomplete KG strategically while not introduce much unnecessary noise that could enlarge the search space and lower the performance.
