Ontology Summit 2020 Communiqué

Knowledge graphs, closely related to ontologies and semantic networks, have emerged in the last few years to be an important semantic technology and research area. As structured representations of semantic knowledge that are stored in a graph, KGs are lightweight versions of semantic networks that scale to massive datasets such as the entire World Wide Web. Industry has devoted a great deal of effort to the development of knowledge graphs, and they are now critical to the functions of intelligent virtual assistants such as Siri and Alexa. Some of the research communities where KGs are relevant are Ontologies, Big Data, Linked Data, Open Knowledge Network, Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning, and many others.

Agenda

Convening of Session
Splitting into working groups with each group in its own Zoom room, wiki page and soaphub chat room as follows:
- Room 1: Whence - What brought the use of graphs in as persistence mechanisms. Will need to address other non-relational persistence mechanisms; historical background; this can include parts of 'why'.
  - Whence wiki page
  - Whence soaphub chat room
- Room 2: Current State - How graph persistence mechanisms are being used.
  - Current state wiki page
  - Current state soaphub chat room
- Room 3: Problems - What the differences in the current uses are and what problems they may cause going forward.
  - Problems wiki page
  - Problems soaphub chat room
- Room 4: Whither - Our recommendation of how a the notion 'knowledge graph' should be defined; and how standards can help. This might lead to the next year's summit topic.
  - Whither wiki page
  - Whither soaphub chat room
