Introducing the EDMAssociation’s Knowledge Graph Workshop. This session is part of a suite of professional courses and workshops offered by EDM Association and designed specifically to help organizations build data and AI capability for business success. Like all of our professional learning programs, this workshop is vendor-independent, product-neutral, and built by business leaders with input from our membership community of cross-industry professionals.
Join our practical, one-day Knowledge Graph session to advance your data and AI capability. This workshop is a valuable part of your trusted roadmap towards accurate and explainable AI for tangible outcomes.
This workshop is ideal for data architects, business analysts, semantic and ontology leads, AI engineering leaders, and CDOs
Why this matters now
AI chat bots talk to your data, but they do NOT understand the context or meaning of your business. A knowledge graph provides AI with the data’s meaning, relationships and context needed to answer accurately, for the right person, with the right permissions, every time. No guess work or hallucinations that most organizations are experiencing with Gen AI via LLMs.
Inside the Knowledge Graph Workshop
- Build an ontology in the room, from the participant’s own business domain
- FIBO-based domain model worked end-to-end, using a home loan as the reference case
- Query the graph live, then wire it into a retrieval pipeline and compare answers with and without it
- Evaluation clinic: how to measure whether the graph actually improved accuracy
What participants leave with
- A working method for building an ontology and semantic layer over the organization’s own domain
- Graph-grounded retrieval that reduces hallucination by constraining answers to defined entities, relationships and rules
- Explainable AI answers: every response traceable to the data, its lineage and its owner (AI governance)
- Scalable, AI-ready data that also enable data product patterns that make the same data reusable across AI use cases
- Agent-ready context: the structure autonomous agents need before they are let near production decisions
