Chaos Sorcerer must be initially summoned from hand. You cannot use his own special summon effect from any other location, like the graveyard.
However, if he is properly special summoned by this method, and then destroyed, you are allowed to special summon him from the graveyard using cards like Monster Reborn. Monsters who say "can only be special summoned by..." all work like this, but ones who say "cannot be special summoned except by.." can't use any other method but their own.
Lastly, if he's in the graveyard but was not properly summoned (like, his summon was negated, or he was simply discarded there) you can't use Monster Reborn on him.

Stardust Dragon / Assault Mode cannot be special summoned 'except' by its own effect, or Assault Mode Activate.
