Features & Benefits

The open source KBpedia provides these features:

• A consistent, coherent combination of seven (7) large and leading public knowledge bases into the computable KBpedia knowledge structure ^{[ 1 ]}
• Mappings to a further 20 "extended" knowledge bases ^{[ 2 ]}
• A structured organization of the contributing knowledge sources that enables separate treatment of concepts, entities, events, attributes, and relations and their associated types ^{[ 3 ]}
• Powerful and flexible manipulation and filtering capabilities
• Use of open and accepted languages and standards ^{[ 4 ]}

• A modular and expandable architecture
• A completely Web-based knowledge structure, which may be deployed locally or in the cloud.

In turn, these features provide these benefits:

• Integration and incorporation of all data assets ? unstructured text, semi-structured and markup data, and structured datasets and databases
• A reference structure for inter-relating and integrating your own domain content
• Inherent multi-linguality, supported by the 200+ languages of the source knowledge bases
• Precise semantic representation for all items, enabling better selections and matches
• The ability to make selections via inference and other logical operations
• The potential to recognize and train up to 52,000 fine-grained entity types
• A knowledge graph suitable to network analytics such as influence, centrality, shortest paths, assortative mixing, and betweenness
• Faster, cheaper creation of positive and negative machine learning training sets
• Faster, cheaper configuration and testing of machine learners.
