Abstract
A data processing method includes receiving data from a plurality of sources, generating a knowledge graph, and identifying potentially ambiguous particular nodes. For each of the particular nodes a semantic neighborhood is constructed including the particular node and a plurality of nodes within a particular degree of separation from the particular node, the particular node is omitted from the semantic neighborhood, a plurality of groups of connected nodes are determined in the semantic neighborhood, a plurality of instances of the particular node are defined, a plurality of substitute nodes are generated based on the plurality of instances, and each of the plurality of groups of connected nodes are connected to one of the plurality of substitute nodes to update the knowledge graph. A query is received via a network. Query results are retrieved out of the updated knowledge graph, and the query results are rendered accessible.
