What is a knowledge graph?

A knowledge graph is a structured representation of entities and the relationships between them.

Definition

Marella's knowledge network adds concepts and curation on top.

01

Where this one gets misread

A graph draws relationships confidently whether or not the evidence supports them. Once rendered, an inferred edge and a stated one look identical, and the diagram is persuasive either way.

02

Questions to ask

Ask for a worked example on your own material, and the evidence needed to reproduce it.

  • Which relationships are stated in the source and which inferred?
  • What evidence supports each edge?
  • How are two people with the same name resolved?
  • How is a wrong edge corrected, and does it stay corrected?
03

How Marella uses the term

We use “Knowledge graph” only where a product mechanism or an evaluation method backs it up, and we say when the behaviour depends on how a deployment is configured.

  • Backed by a product mechanism or an evaluation method
  • Deployment differences flagged

What this page does not prove

  1. B1A definition is not a claim about how the product performs.
  2. B2Vendor implementations vary.
  3. B3Test the term against a representative workflow.
