Concept Taxonomy¶
Twelve categories organize the 200 concepts in Learning Knowledge Graphs. No category exceeds 30% of the total (the largest is 13%), and each maps to one or more topics from the course description.
| Category | TaxonomyID | Description | Concept Count |
|---|---|---|---|
| Graph Foundations | FOUND | Core graph vocabulary (node, edge, triple) and the relational/document-store paradigms it's contrasted against | 26 |
| Taxonomies and Ontologies | TAXO | Controlled vocabularies, thesauri, and formal ontology structures | 16 |
| Graph Data Models and Schema | MODEL | RDF triples vs. property graphs, and schema-level modeling (classes, properties, cardinality) | 26 |
| Semantic Web Standards | STD | RDF, RDFS, OWL, SKOS, SPARQL, URIs, and serialization formats | 20 |
| Building Knowledge Graphs | BUILD | ETL, entity extraction, entity resolution, and data cleaning for constructing a graph from source data | 16 |
| Querying Knowledge Graphs | QUERY | SPARQL and Cypher query languages, client libraries, and query patterns | 16 |
| Graph Algorithms and Analytics | ALGO | Centrality measures, traversal algorithms, and community detection | 16 |
| Knowledge Graphs and Machine Learning | GML | Embeddings, graph neural networks, and link prediction | 16 |
| Knowledge Graphs and LLMs | LLM | Large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, and GraphRAG | 14 |
| Cross-Industry Case Studies | CASE | Search, biomedical, recommendation, product, social, and other applied knowledge graphs | 12 |
