Ask HN: Who else is using knowledge graphs? Our startup has built an Ontology containing medical terms and their relations. In simpler terms, we have the names (diseases, symptoms, medications etc...) and the relations that they have to each other. It is used in the back-end for our current products. We are thinking of opening it (the medical ontology) for public access and building a community that uses and maintains it.
Forgive my google skills, but I see very little interest in this tech and almost zero applications that use anything similar. Should we take the trouble to go through with the project? Is there anyone using this kind of structured knowledge base? How? |
