Editor's Notes

  • #3 data integration has been a central challenge for companies for a long time
  • #4 We do data integration but for single domains
  • #5 It’s already useful to identify and categorize entiies but now we need a global view. Indeed we have a hand curated taxonomies
  • #6 1. Translational queries
  • #7 2. Search is entity centric
  • #8 3. People have become more central with the rise of the Social graph and the importance of personalization and profiles
  • #9 4. Applications are data driven, we need more and higher quality data predictive models
  • #10 5. Applications are data driven, extensible APIs
  • #11 The flexible style of knowledge graphs
  • #13 Vast fields of unstructured data is the norm
  • #14 Effort to consume this data, arranging, input checking
  • #15 Ever more data,
  • #16 We can’t do all this by hand but we need to use the human annotators we do have more effectively especially when they are experts
  • #17 Knowledge graphs make it easier to do automated extraction by having a reference point and framework for doing and managing such extractions and putting those puzzle pieces together
  • #18 And also provides a powerful source of data that our monster models love
  • #19 Helps solve two key challenges: data integration in a flexible way and most of the methods that we do help us acquire data Now our there are a couple of things to worry about in this idealic view
  • #20 Organic – data quality is a central issue with this
  • #21 I think a powerful thing is the evolution of these knowledge graphs as they grow and change overtime
