Knowledge graphs promise a novel platform for better holistic decision making and analytics. Many projects fail to reach their full potential because of the prohibitively high cost of integrating new knowledge from the required information sources.
The talk explains the concept of semantic similarity as a tool for efficient entity clustering and matching based on graph and text embeddings. It will demonstrate the underlying scalable and easy to understand algorithm of Random Indexing.
This work is part of the Ontotext Platform, which increases productivity in developing and maintaining large scale knowledge graphs. The platform enables enterprises to develop and operate on top of such mission-critical systems for decision support, information discovery and metadata management.

Abstract— The movie making is a multibillion-dollar industry. In 2018, the global movie business has generated nearly $41.5 billion in box office and more than that in merchandise revenues. But it is not a guaranteed business: every year we witness big buster and budget movies that become either a “hit” or a “flop”. The success of a movie is mainly judged by looking at ratio of its gross revenue over its budget, but some may also call a movie successful if it bagged critics praise and awards, both of which do not necessarily convert to financial revenue. In our project we look from an investor point of view, who largely favour financial return over any other attribute. But to predict the success of a movie, an investor can’t only rely on superficial attributes, a typical reason why Machine Learning (ML) prediction will prove to be very useful. We are going to implement this prediction using two ML methods that we have studied during the subject CMPE542, namely Random Forest and Neural Network. These are very adapted for discriminating classes, and can thus help us very effectively in pointing to successful or failed movies after being trained on a set of 5043 movies which data have been scraped from IMDB. At the end of the project, we should be able to know which method has the highest accuracy, what movies sell the best at the box office and most importantly for movies producers, what movie features are the most decisive in making a movie profitable.
In our research, we begin with considering the HTN planning algorithm, but all these papers do not consider formal grammar approach application as a system for defining the syntax of a language by specifying the strings of symbols or sentences that are considered grammatical.
In our paper, we are going to present the idea of how the using of the formal grammar can solve the problem of web services composition in the context of virtual enterprise synthesis and may essentially decrease the number of web services possible combinations to be processed by algorithm
Effective data wrangling starts with data collection. Make sure to think about Front-end validation, limiting free text, GDPR, security, accessibility, inclusion, and designing to minimise the amount of data collected.
The next part is effective data storage. You can store data in relational or non-relational data stores. Relational data solutions in Azure include Azure SQL Database, Azure Database for MariaDB, and Azure Database for PostgreSQL. Non-relational data solutions include Azure Storage and Azure Cosmos DB.
You might wrangle data during a data movement process between systems. A batch process moves multiple records, typically on a schedule. A streaming process operates on each individual event/message as it happens. In ETL (Extract Transform Load) you run a process to retrieve data from a system, process it, and then insert it into a new data store. In ELT (Extract Load Transform) you run a process to retrieve data from a system, insert it into a new data store, and the process it.
The modern data warehouse stack (used to combine data from multiple sources) includes Azure Data Factory, Azure Databricks, Azure Synapse Analytics and Azure Analysis Services.
Power Query is a useful language for processing data and can be used in Excel, Power BI, and Azure Data Factory.
Power BI is a self-service data modelling and visualisation tool that can connect to data stored in lots of different places. It has a data modeling area where Power Query can be used to build a dataset. The reports allow you make multi-page analysis of a dataset. A dashboard combines visuals from one or more reports to provide a broader and simpler view.
SQL is a language that works with many relational and non-relational systems. You can use it interact with data, data structures, and the access model for the data objects.
Finally you can write code to wrangle data with Python, R, and dotnet being common data wrangling languages.

"Why the Semantic Web will Never Work" (note the quotes)James Hendler
This talk refutes some criticisms of the semantic web, but also outlines some research challenges we must overcome if we are to ever realize Tim Berners-Lee's original Semantic Web vision.
The presentation I gave at the 2007 Semantic Technology Conference. Declarative programming” has become the latest buzzword to describe languages that abstractly define systems requirements (the what) and leave the implementation (the how) to be determined by an independent process. This makes the semantics (meaning) of declarative data elements even more critical as these systems are shared between organizations. This presentation: (1) Provides a background of declarative programming (2) Describes why understanding the semantic aspects of declarative systems is critical to cost-effective software development.

Data Workflows for Machine Learning - Seattle DAMLPaco Nathan
First public meetup at Twitter Seattle, for Seattle DAML:
http://www.meetup.com/Seattle-DAML/events/159043422/
We compare/contrast several open source frameworks which have emerged for Machine Learning workflows, including KNIME, IPython Notebook and related Py libraries, Cascading, Cascalog, Scalding, Summingbird, Spark/MLbase, MBrace on .NET, etc. The analysis develops several points for "best of breed" and what features would be great to see across the board for many frameworks... leading up to a "scorecard" to help evaluate different alternatives. We also review the PMML standard for migrating predictive models, e.g., from SAS to Hadoop.
Watching Pigs Fly with the Netflix Hadoop Toolkit (Hadoop Summit 2013)Jeff Magnusson
Overview of the data platform as a service architecture at Netflix. We examine the tools and services built around the Netflix Hadoop platform that are designed to make access to big data at Netflix easy, efficient, and self-service for our users.
From the perspective of a user of the platform, we walk through how various services in the architecture can be used to build a recommendation engine. Sting, a tool for fast in memory aggregation and data visualization, and Lipstick, our workflow visualization and monitoring tool for Apache Pig, are discussed in depth. Lipstick is now part of Netflix OSS - clone it on github, or learn more from our techblog post: http://techblog.netflix.com/2013/06/introducing-lipstick-on-apache-pig.html.
The Rise of the DataOps - Dataiku - J On the Beach 2016 Dataiku
Many organisations are creating groups dedicated to data. These groups have many names : Data Team, Data Labs, Analytics Teams….
But whatever the name, the success of those teams depends a lot on the quality of the data infrastructure and their ability to actually deploy data science applications in production.
In that regards a new role of “DataOps” is emerging. Similar, to Dev Ops for (Web) Dev, the Data Ops is a merge between a data engineer and a platform administrator. Well versed in cluster administration and optimisation, a data ops would have also a perspective on the quality of data quality and the relevance of predictive models.
Do you want to be a Data Ops ? We’ll discuss its role and challenges during this talk
Visualizing your results accurately can reveal hidden insights, catch errors, and inspire your audience to investigate further. During this workshop, we’ll cover types of data visualizations and when they’re most effective, different JavaScript charting libraries such as D3, Google Charts, and Dygraphs, and how to get started on a simple dashboard.
After the amazing breakthroughs of machine learning (deep learning or otherwise) in the past decade, the shortcomings of machine learning are also becoming increasingly clear: unexplainable results, data hunger and limited generalisability are all becoming bottlenecks.
In this talk we will look at how the combination with symbolic AI (in the form of very large knowledge graphs) can give us a way forward, towards machine learning systems that can explain their results, that need less data, and that generalise better outside their training set.

While mathematicians have used graph theory since the 18th century to solve problems, the software patterns for graph data are new to most developers. To enable "mass adoption" of graph technology, we need to establish the right abstractions, access APIs, and data models.
RDF triples, while of paramount importance in establishing RDF graph semantics, are a low-level abstraction, much like using assembly language. For practical and productive “graph programming” we need something different.
Similarly, existing declarative graph query languages (such as SPARQL and Cypher) are not always the best way to access graph data, and sometimes you need a simpler interface (e.g., GraphQL), or even a different approach altogether (e.g., imperative traversals such as with Gremlin).
Ora Lassila is a Principal Graph Technologist in the Amazon Neptune graph database group. He has a long experience with graphs, graph databases, ontologies, and knowledge representation. He was a co-author of the original RDF specification as well as a co-author of the seminal article on the Semantic Web.

Κnowledge Architecture: Combining Strategy, Data Science and Information Arch...Connected Data World
"The most important contribution management needs to make in the 21st Century is to increase the productivity of knowledge work and the knowledge worker", said Peter F. Drucker in 1999, and time has proven him right.
Even NASA is no exception, as it faces a number of challenges. NASA has hundreds of millions of documents, reports, project data, lessons learned, scientific research, medical analysis, geospatial data, IT logs, and all kinds of other data stored nation-wide.
The data is growing in terms of variety, velocity, volume, value and veracity. NASA needs to provide accessibility to engineering data sources, whose visibility is currently limited. To convert data to knowledge a convergence of Knowledge Management, Information Architecture and Data Science is necessary.
This is what David Meza, Acting Branch Chief - People Analytics, Sr. Data Scientist at NASA, calls "Knowledge Architecture": the people, processes, and technology of designing, implementing, and applying the intellectual infrastructure of organizations.
A talk by Aleksa Gordic | Software - Deep Learning engineer, Microsoft | The AI Epiphany
What can you learn about Graph Machine Learning in 2 months?
Aleksa Gordic, Machine Learning engineer @ Microsoft and Founder @ The AI Epiphany, shares his journey in the world of Graph Machine Learning. Aleksa started exploring the basics in the world of Graph Machine Learning, and ended up implementing and open sourcing his own Graph Attention Network on PyTorch.
In this talk, Aleksa will share the fundamentals of Graph Machine Learning, provide real-world examples, resources, and everything his younger self would be grateful for. Aleksa will also be available to answer questions.
What is Graph Machine Learning? Simply put, Graph Machine Learning is a branch of machine learning that deals with graph data.
Graphs consist of nodes, that may have feature vectors associated with them, and edges, which again may or may not have feature vectors attached. The applications are endless. Massive-scale recommender systems, particle physics, computational pharmacology / chemistry / biology, traffic prediction, fake news detection, and the list goes on and on.
In recent years graphs have been increasingly adopted in financial services for everything from fraud detection to Know Your Customer (KYC) to regulatory requirements. At the same time Environmental Social Governance (ESG) investing has become the fastest growing segment of financial services. In this session James discusses how many of these historical graph techniques are now being enhanced for the era of sustainable investing. Going beyond definitions, let's identify use cases, discuss news and trends, and wrap up with an ask me anything session.
What is graph all about, and why should you care? Graphs come in many shapes and forms, and can be used for different applications: Graph Analytics, Graph AI, Knowledge Graphs, and Graph Databases.
Talk by George Anadiotis. Connected Data London Meetup June 29th 2020.
Up until the beginning of the 2010s, the world was mostly running on spreadsheets and relational databases. To a large extent, it still does. But the NoSQL wave of databases has largely succeeded in instilling the “best tool for the job” mindset.
After relational, key-value, document, and columnar, the latest link in this evolutionary proliferation of data structures is graph. Graph analytics, Graph AI, Knowledge Graphs and Graph Databases have been making waves, included in hype cycles for the last couple of years.
The Year of the Graph marked the beginning of it all before the Gartners of the world got in the game. The Year of the Graph is a term coined to convey the fact that the time has come for this technology to flourish.
The eponymous article that set the tone was published in January 2018 on ZDNet by domain expert George Anadiotis. George has been working with, and keeping an eye on, all things Graph since the early 2000s. He was one of the first to note the continuing rise of Graph Databases, and to bring this technology in front of a mainstream audience.
The Year of the Graph has been going strong since 2018. In August 2018, Gartner started including Graph in its hype cycles. Ever since, Graph has been riding the upward slope of the Hype Cycle.
The need for knowledge on these technologies is constantly growing. To respond to that need, the Year of the Graph newsletter was released in April 2018. In addition, a constant flow of graph-related news and resources is being shared on social media.
To help people make educated choices, the Year of the Graph Database Report was released. The report has been hailed as the most comprehensive of its kind in the market, consistently helping people choose the most appropriate solution for their use case since 2018.
The report, articles, news stream, and the newsletter have been reaching thousands of people, helping them understand and navigate this landscape. We’ll talk about the Year of the Graph, the different shapes, forms, and applications for graphs, the latest news and trends, and wrap up with an ask me anything session.
From Taxonomies and Schemas to Knowledge Graphs: Parts 1 & 2Connected Data World

Parts 1 & 2
Do you have experience in data modeling, or using taxonomies to classify things, and want to upgrade to modeling knowledge graphs? This hands-on workshop with one of the leading knowledge graph practitioners will help you get started.
Part 3
For as long as people have been thinking about thinking, we have imagined that somewhere in the inner reaches of our minds there are ghostly, intangible things called ideas which can be linked together to create representations of the world around us — a world that has a certain structure, conforms to certain rules, and to a certain extent, can be predicted and manipulated on the basis of our ideas.
Rationalist philosophers have struggled for centuries to make a solid case for this intuitive, almost inborn view of human experience, but it is only with the advent of modern computing that we have the opportunity to build machines which truly think the way we think we think.
For the first time, we can give concrete form to our mental representations as graphs or hypergraphs, explicitly specify our mental schemas as ontologies, and formally define the rules by which we reason and act on new information. If we so choose, we can even use these human-like building blocks to construct systems that carry far more information than any single human brain, and that connect and serve millions of people in real time.
As enterprise knowledge graphs become increasingly mainstream, we appear to be headed in that direction, although there is no guarantee that the momentum will continue unless actively sustained. Where knowledge graphs are likely to be the most essential, in the long run, is at the interface between human and machine; mental representation versus formal knowledge representation.
In this talk, we will take a step back from the many practical and social challenges of building large-scale knowledge graphs, which at this point are well-known. Instead, we will take up the quest for an ideal data model for knowledge representation and data integration, seeking common ground among the most popular data models used in industry and open source software, surveying what we suspect to be true of our own inner models, and previewing structure and process in Apache TinkerPop, version 4. We will also take a tentative step forward into the world of augmented perception via graph stream processing.
Graph in Apache Cassandra. The World’s Most Scalable Graph DatabaseConnected Data World
Graph databases are everywhere right now. The explosive growth in the graph market coupled with the hype of solving graph problems is causing both excitement and confusion. From labeled property graphs to RDF to pure graph analytics to multi-model databases, the breadth of graph offerings is staggering.
The good news? DataStax has been listening—and building.
In this session, we’ll show you how DataStax Graph is architected into Apache Cassandra to deliver the world’s most scalable graph database. You’ll learn how to integrate Cassandra data into mixed workloads, design scalable property graphs, and even turn your existing tables into graphs.
With your high throughput time series data distributed next to its relationships, what will you build next?
Enterprise Data Governance: Leveraging Knowledge Graph & AI in support of a d...Connected Data World
As one of the largest financial institutions worldwide, JP Morgan is reliant on data to drive its day-to-day operations, against an ever evolving regulatory regime. Our global data landscape possesses particular challenges of effectively maintaining data governance and metadata management.
The Data strategy at JP Morgan intends to:
a) generate business value
b) adhere to regulatory & compliance requirements
c) reduce barriers to access
d) democratize access to data
In this talk, we show how JP Morgan leverages semantic technologies to drive the implementation of our data strategy. We demonstrate how we exploit knowledge graph capabilities to answer:
1) What Data do I need?
2) What Data do we have?
3) Where does my Data come from?
4) Where should my Data come from?
5) What Data should be shared most?
Graph applications were once considered “exotic” and expensive. Until recently, few software engineers had much experience putting graphs to work. However, the use cases are now becoming more commonplace.
This talk explores a practical use case, one which addresses key issues of data governance and reproducible research, and depends on sophisticated use of graph technology.
Consider: some academic disciplines such as astronomy enjoy a wealth of data — mostly open data. Popular machine learning algorithms, open source Python libraries, and distributed systems all owe much to those disciplines and their history of big data.
Other disciplines require strong guarantees for privacy and security. Datasets used in social science research involve confidential details about human subjects: medical histories, wages, home addresses for family members, police records, etc.
Those cannot be shared openly, which impedes researchers from learning about related work by others. Reproducibility of research and the pace of science in general are limited. Nonetheless, social science research is vital for civil governance, especially for evidence-based policymaking (US federal law since 2018).
Even when data may be too sensitive to share openly, often the metadata can be shared. Constructing knowledge graphs of metadata about datasets — along with metadata about authors, their published research, methods used, data providers, data stewards, and so on — that provides effective means to tackle hard problems in data governance.
Knowledge graph work supports use cases such as entity linking, discovery and recommendations, axioms to infer about compliance, etc. This talk reviews the Rich Context AI competition and the related ADRF framework used now by more than 15 federal agencies in the US.
We’ll explore knowledge graph use cases, use of open standards and open source, and how this enhances reproducible research. Social science research for the public sector has much in common with data use in industry.
Issues of privacy, security, and compliance overlap, pointing toward what will be required of banks, media channels, etc., and what technologies apply. We’ll look at comparable work emerging in other parts of industry: open source projects, open standards emerging, and in particular a new set of features in Project Jupyter that support knowledge graphs about data governance.
Powering Question-Driven Problem Solving to Improve the Chances of Finding Ne...Connected Data World
Making true “molecule”-“mechanism”-“observation” relationship connections is a time consuming, iterative and laborious process. In addition, it is very easy to miss critical information that affects key decisions or helps make plausible scientific connections.
The current practice for deciphering such relationships frequently involves subject matter experts (SMEs) requesting resource from resource-constrained data science departments to refine and redo highly similar ad hoc searches. The result of this is impairment of both the pace and quality of scientific reviews.
In this presentation, I show how semantic integration can be made to ultimately become part of an integrated learning framework for more informed scientific decision making. I will take the audience through our pilot journey and highlight practical learnings that should inform subsequent endeavours.
Knowledge Graphs and AI to Hyper-Personalise the Fashion Retail Experience at...Connected Data World
What is the key to the holistic success of the fastest growing and most successful companies of our time globally? Well, often the key is the rapid increase in collected and analysed data. Graph databases provide a way to organise semantically by classes, not tables, are web-aware, and are superior for handling deep, complex relationships than traditional relational or NoSQL data stores.
It is these deep, complex relationships that can provide the rich context for hyper-personalising your product offering, inspiring consumers to purchase. In this talk, we describe how we are using artificial intelligence at Farfetch to not only help build a knowledge graph but also to evolve our insights with state-of-the-art graph-based AI.
A world of structured data promises us an incredible future. But most websites struggle to even implement basic schema.org markup. Fewer still represent and connect their pages and content in sophisticated, structured graphs. We can’t reach that incredible future without increasing and improving adoption.
To move forward, we need to make constructing rich structured data as easy as writing a recipe. This isn’t a pipe dream: at Yoast, we think we’ve solved schema for everybody, everywhere. We’d love to share our story.
The relationships between data sets matter. Discovering, analyzing, and learning those relationships is a central part to expanding our understand, and is a critical step to being able to predict and act upon the data. Unfortunately, these are not always simple or quick tasks.
To help the analyst we introduce RAPIDS, a collection of open-source libraries, incubated by NVIDIA and focused on accelerating the complete end-to-end data science ecosystem. Graph analytics is a critical piece of the data science ecosystem for processing linked data, and RAPIDS is pleased to offer cuGraph as our accelerated graph library.
Simply accelerating algorithms only addressed a portion of the problem. To address the full problem space, RAPIDS cuGraph strives to be feature-rich, easy to use, and intuitive. Rather than limiting the solution to a single graph technology, cuGraph supports Property Graphs, Knowledge Graphs, Hyper-Graphs, Bipartite graphs, and the basic directed and undirected graph.
A Python API allows the data to be manipulated as a DataFrame, similar and compatible with Pandas, with inputs and outputs being shared across the full RAPIDS suite, for example with the RAPIDS machine learning package, cuML.
This talk will present an overview of RAPIDS and cuGraph. Discuss and show examples of how to manipulate and analyze bipartite and property graph, plus show how data can be shared with machine learning algorithms. The talk will include some performance and scalability metrics. Then conclude with a preview of upcoming features, like graph query language support, and the general RAPIDS roadmap.
Elegant and Scalable Code Querying with Code Property GraphsConnected Data World
Programming is an unforgiving art form in which even minor flaws can cause rockets to explode, data to be stolen, and systems to be compromised. Today, a system tasked to automatically identify these flaws not only faces the intrinsic difficulties and theoretical limits of the task itself, it must also account for the many different forms in which programs can be formulated and account for the awe-inspiring speed at which developers push new code into CI/CD pipelines. So much code, so little time.
The code property graph – a multi-layered graph representation of code that captures properties of code across different abstractions – (application code, libraries and frameworks) – has been developed over the last six years to provide a foundation for the challenging problem of identifying flaws in program code at scale, whether it is high-level dynamically-typed Javascript, statically-typed Scala in its bytecode form, the syntax trees generated by Roslyn C# compiler, or the bitcode that flows through LLVM.
Based on this graph, we define a common query language based on formal code property graph specification to elegantly analyze code regardless of the source language. Paired with the formulation of a state-of-the-art data flow tracker based on code property graphs, we arrive at a distributed cloud native powerful code analysis. This talk provides an introduction to the technology.
From Knowledge Graphs to AI-powered SEO: Using taxonomies, schemas and knowle...Connected Data World
Do you want to learn how to use the low-hanging fruit of knowledge graphs — schema.org and JSON-LD — to annotate content and improve your SEO with semantics and entities? This hands-on workshop with one of the leading Semantic SEO practitioners will help you get started.
May graph technology improve the deployment of humanitarian projects? The goal of using what we call “Graphs for good at Action Against Hunger” is to be more efficient and transparent, and this can have a crucial impact on people’s lives.
Is there common behaviour factors between different projects? Can elements of different resources or projects be related? For example, security incidents in a city could influence the way other projects run in there.
The explained use case data comes from a project called Kit For Autonomous Cash Transfer in Humanitarian Emergencies (KACHE) whose goal is to deploy electronic cash transfers in emergency situations when no suitable infrastructure is available.
It also offers the opportunity to track transactions in order to better recognize crisis-affected population behaviours, understanding goods distribution network to improve recommendations, identifying the role of culture in transactional patterns, as well as most required items for every place.
In this talk we will go back to basics with ontologies and from that project forwards to their future. I’ll base most of what I talk about on my experience in bio-ontologies, but most experience will be applicable in many domains; most domains are not as special as they think.
When it comes down to the basics, we need to know what our data represent or mean; that is where ontologies come into play; We need to know what we’re talking about. Once we have that clear we can proceed. There is much that one can do with data once we know what it means.
We can exploit those data through knowing what it represents. We can exploit these data better if our ontologies are also better. In taking this simple point of view forwards, I will use this talk to establish a set of principles for ontologists.

7. Challenges in Enterprise Semantic Integration
Multiple levels of inconsistencies:
o Types: film vs “TV movie”
o Meta-data: “science fiction”, “military
science fiction” vs “Sci-Fi”
o Reference data: “US” vs. “United States”
o Manually curated cross-links (!) for testing

8. A Classical Approach
o Start with string matching of the Titles
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II” vs.
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2”
“Perfume: The Story of a Murderer” vs “Perfume”
“Pirate Radio” vs. “The Boat That Rocked”
“Avatar” vs ”Avatar” (4 movies)
9. A Classical Approach with extra Rules
o Add release date matching
Lose 10% of the matches due to bad dates
o Ambiguity is greatly reduced but still many:

o Even a limited set of predicates return acceptable results
o Important independent alternative for entity matching
22. Important Design Considerations
o Prefer RDF over Property Graph
o Much richer technology ecosystem (schema, dataset, reasoning, strings vs things)
o Virtualization versus Consolidation
o Virtualization works only for simple lookup queries, but not real data integration
o Push result federation to the GraphQL data consumption layer
o Integrating Random Indexing in the KG database
o Push heavy computation as closest to the data
o Choose GraphQL over SPARQL for app developers:
