scope:

This standard defines the framework of knowledge graphs (KGs). The framework describes the input requirement of KG; construction process of KG, that is, extraction, storage, fusion, and understanding; performance metrics; applications of KG; verticals; KG-related artificial intelligence (AI) technologies; and other required digital infrastructure.

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to define the framework of KGs. This framework will help enterprises, especially small- and medium-sized enterprises and start-ups, which develop KG applications to follow a general KG construction method. In addition, the proposed framework will help digital infrastructure suppliers, such as cloud developers and IT security engineers, to understand the KG diagrams and provide more efficient tools to support KG. Vertical applications may extract more types of knowledge and generate more applications after applying the standardized framework.
