Knowledge Graphs in Amplifi

Knowledge Graphs in Amplifi provide a structured, semantic representation of information by capturing entities and the relationships between them. They transform scattered facts into a connected network, enabling deeper insights and more intelligent data interaction.

What Are Knowledge Graphs?​

A Knowledge Graph is a network of real-world entities — such as people, organizations, locations, concepts, and domain-specific objects — and the relationships that link them. Unlike flat keyword-based systems, knowledge graphs preserve the meaning and context of your data, making it more discoverable and useful.

Key Concepts in Amplifi​

  • 🧩 Entities: The core units in a graph, representing distinct people, places, organizations, products, concepts, and other domain-specific objects extracted from your unstructured data.
  • 🔗 Relationships: Semantic links between entities that reveal how concepts are connected, such as "employs," "located_in," "part_of," or custom relationships specific to your business domain.
  • 🏷️ Entity Types: Categories and classifications of entities that help organize and structure the knowledge graph, such as person, organization, location, or custom domain-specific types.

Amplifi's Knowledge Graph Architecture​

Automated Entity and Relationship Extraction​

Amplifi leverages advanced natural language processing and machine learning models to automatically extract entities and relationships from your unstructured data sources:

  • Entity Recognition: Identifies and categorizes entities such as persons, organizations, locations, dates, monetary values, and custom entity types relevant to your domain.
  • Relationship Extraction: Discovers and classifies relationships between entities, including hierarchical, causal, temporal, and semantic connections.
  • Contextual Understanding: Captures the context in which entities appear, including sentiment, importance, and relevance scores.

Graph Construction and Enrichment​

Once extracted, Amplifi constructs a dynamic knowledge graph that:

  • Links Disparate Sources: Connects information across documents, databases, and data sources to create a unified view.
  • Handles Scale: Efficiently manages large volumes of entities and relationships while maintaining query performance.
  • Supports Evolution: Continuously updates as new data is ingested, allowing the graph to grow and adapt over time.

Why Use Knowledge Graphs in Amplifi?​

Knowledge Graphs enhance your ability to understand and navigate complex information by:

  • 🔍 Enabling Relationship-Aware Search: Queries can leverage semantic meaning, not just matching words, for more accurate and contextually relevant results.
  • 🌐 Connecting Disparate Information: Concepts spread across documents become linked through shared entities and relationships, breaking down data silos.
  • 🧠 Providing Contextual Understanding: Seeing how a piece of information fits into a larger knowledge structure helps uncover meaning, intent, and hidden patterns.
  • 📊 Supporting Deeper Analysis: Communities and relationships can be used to identify trends, anomalies, high-level patterns, and business insights.
  • 🤖 Powering Intelligent Agents: Provides the semantic foundation for AI agents to understand context, make connections, and deliver more accurate responses.

Enhanced Search in Amplifi​

Knowledge Graphs play an active role in improving Amplifi's search capabilities. When a user query is processed by the search tool, Amplifi doesn't just perform semantic vector search — it also searches through the entity-relationship network formed by the Knowledge Graph.

The agent combines results from:

  • Vector Search: Retrieves content based on semantic similarity using embeddings.
  • Graph Search: Identifies relevant entities and their connections from the Knowledge Graph, including related entities, paths, and communities.

Amplifi-Specific Use Cases​

Enterprise Document Intelligence​

  • Contract Analysis: Extract parties, obligations, dates, and clauses while understanding relationships between contract elements.
  • Research Synthesis: Connect findings, methodologies, and conclusions across multiple research documents.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Map regulatory requirements to internal policies and procedures.

Business Process Optimization​

  • Customer Journey Mapping: Track customer interactions, preferences, and pain points across touchpoints.
  • Supply Chain Visibility: Connect suppliers, products, locations, and logistics data.
  • Risk Assessment: Identify interconnected risks and their potential impact across business units.

AI-Powered Insights​

  • Content Recommendation: Suggest relevant documents based on entity relationships and user context.
  • Anomaly Detection: Identify unusual patterns or missing connections in data.
  • Predictive Analytics: Use relationship patterns to inform forecasting and decision-making.

Technical Implementation in Amplifi​

Graph Storage and Querying​

Amplifi supports multiple graph storage backends optimized for different use cases:

  • In-Memory Graphs: For real-time querying and interactive exploration.
  • Persistent Graph Databases: For large-scale, production deployments.
  • Vector-Graph Hybrids: Combining graph traversal with vector similarity search.

Integration with Amplifi Ecosystem​

Knowledge Graphs seamlessly integrate with other Amplifi components:

  • Data Ingestion Pipelines: Automatically extract entities during data processing.
  • Agent Tools: Provide graph query capabilities for custom tools and workflows.

Conceptual Benefits​

Knowledge Graphs serve as the foundation for intelligent systems that go beyond surface-level information. They:

  • Represent meaning, not just data, by capturing real-world relationships.
  • Foster discovery by exposing hidden connections and patterns.
  • Enable machine reasoning, opening up possibilities for more advanced automation and AI-driven insights.
  • Support explainable AI by providing transparent reasoning paths through connected data.

When to Use Knowledge Graphs in Amplifi​

Knowledge Graphs are ideal when:

  • Your data contains named entities and meaningful relationships (e.g., contracts, research papers, business documents, customer records).
  • You want to explore connections between ideas, people, or business elements.
  • You aim to power semantic search, intelligent assistants, recommendation systems, or advanced analytics.
  • Your use case involves complex queries that benefit from understanding context and relationships.

Implementation Considerations​

  • Data Quality: High-quality entity extraction depends on well-structured input data.
  • Domain Expertise: Custom entity types and relationships may require domain-specific tuning.
  • Scalability: Large knowledge graphs may require optimized storage and querying strategies.
  • Privacy and Security: Ensure appropriate access controls for sensitive entity data.

By modeling knowledge as a graph, Amplifi helps you move from isolated data points to a rich, connected understanding of your information — unlocking smarter, faster, and more relevant insights for your enterprise AI applications.
