Place name service composition is a critical link in the integration of spatiotemporal knowledge and intelligent services for place names, determining the ability to rapidly solve complex place name problems. Traditional case-based reasoning methods are primarily rule-driven, making it difficult to deeply integrate semantic and graph structural features, and they also lack precision in measuring the similarity of multi-type place name service cases. To address this, this paper integrates knowledge graphs and case-based reasoning to propose a place name service composition method that balances semantic and graph structural similarity, aiming to enhance the response efficiency and recognition accuracy of complex natural language queries. The method consists of two steps: the first is constructing a knowledge graph case base. Semantic feature extraction is performed on the standard geographic question-answering standard dataset GeoQuery corpus to build a place name service knowledge graph case base that integrates semantic associations and spatial attributes. The second step is constructing a similarity model. The method combines four similarity measures\u2014DeBERTa, TF-IDF, SimHash, and maximum common subgraph\u2014and employs the Analytic Hierarchy Process for weighting to develop a novel similarity evaluation model for case-based reasoning. Experiments demonstrate that this method achieves a 21% improvement in F1-score compared to traditional rule-based methods. Furthermore, the developed prototype system for the intelligent recommendation of place name service composition achieves a recommendation accuracy of 92.64%. This research holds significant practical implications and application value for advancing the geographic information field toward intelligent and precision-based development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijgi15050226","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]],"date-time":"2026-05-21T13:53:24Z","timestamp":1779371604000},"page":"226","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Case-Based Reasoning Method for Knowledge Graph Place Name Service Composition Integrating Semantic and Graph Structural Similarity"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Wenjuan","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Artificial Intelligence, China University of Geosciences, Beijing 100083, China"},{"name":"Institute of Geographic Information System and Cartography, Chinese Academy of Surveying and Mapping, Beijing 100036, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3422-7399","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongping","family":"Ming","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Artificial Intelligence, China University of Geosciences, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xi","family":"Mao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geographic Information System and Cartography, Chinese Academy of Surveying and Mapping, Beijing 100036, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jizhou","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geographic Information System and Cartography, Chinese Academy of Surveying and Mapping, Beijing 100036, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5498-1949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pengda","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geographic Information System and Cartography, Chinese Academy of Surveying and Mapping, Beijing 100036, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2008).
