Knowledge graphs have emerged as a compelling abstraction for organizing world's structured knowledge over the internet, capturing relationships among key entities of interest to enterprises, and a way to integrate information extracted from multiple data sources. Knowledge graphs have also started to play a central role in machine learning and natural language processing as a method to incorporate world knowledge, as a target knowledge representation for extracted knowledge, and for explaining what is being learned. This class is a graduate level research seminar featuring prominent researchers and industry practitioners working on different aspects of knowledge graphs. It will showcase how latest research in AI, database systems and HCI is coming together in integrated intelligent systems centered around knowledge graphs.
The seminar will be offered over Zoom as per the planned schedule. As the start of the spring quarter has been delayed to April 6th, Stanford students taking the course for credit are not required to attend the session on March 31st. The sessions will be recorded, and the recordings posted here as and when they become available.
The seminar is open to public. Remote participants may join the seminar through Zoom. To be added to the mailing list for course announcements for guests, please visit here. The playlist of all the session videos is available here.
