In this presentation from the recent Cognitive Computing Summit, Enterprise Knowledge consultants discuss the importance of knowledge graphs and the semantic web in driving Artificial Intelligence.

1. KNOWLEDGE GRAPHS AS A PILLAR TO AI
Yanko Ivanov and James Midkiff
May 23, 2018

2. TABLE OF CONTENTS
ONTOLOGY + GRAPH DATABASE = KNOWLEDGE GRAPH
USE CASE 1: KNOWLEDGE GRAPH AS A RECOMMENDATION ENGINE
USE CASE 2: HIGH PRECISION AUTO-TAGGING

3. TAXONOMIES, ONTOLOGIES, AND
KNOWLEDGE GRAPHS AS PART OF AI

4. KNOWLEDGE ORGANIZATION CONTINUUM
FOLKSONOMY
Free-text tags.
CONTROLLED LIST
List of pre-defined terms.
Improves consistency.
THESAURUS
Pre-defined terms & synonyms.
Hierarchical relationships.
Associative (“related to”)
relationships.
Scope notes.
Increased expressiveness.
TAXONOMY
Pre-defined terms & synonyms.
Hierarchical relationships.
Improves consistency.
Allows for parent/child content
relationships.
ONTOLOGY
Scope notes.
Pre-defined classes &
properties.
Expanded relationship types.
Increased expressiveness.
Semantics. Inference.

5. BUSINESS ONTOLOGY
A defined data model that describes structured
and unstructured information through:
• entities,
• their properties,
• and the way they relate to one another.
• Ontology is about things, not strings.
• Ontologies model your domain in a machine
and human understandable format.
• Ontologies provide context.
• Effective ontologies require a deep
understanding of the knowledge domain.

6. GRAPH DATABASE
▪ A linked data store that organizes structured
and unstructured information through:
▪ entities,
▪ their properties,
▪ and relationships.
▪ Also known as:
▪ Linked Data Store (LD Store)
▪ Triple Store
▪ “Knowledge Graph”
▪ Consists of triples

16. P & P: RECOMMENDATION ADD-ONS
Weighted Interests
• Scale based on
• Frequency
• Time
User Input and/or
Feedback
• User specifies topics
• User liked or disliked
recommendation
Auto-Tagging
Presentations
• Manual tagging is
inconsistent
• Text extraction
provides context
