Democratizing knowledge representation with BioCypher

Democratizing knowledge representation with BioCypher
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Biomedical data are amassed at an ever-increasing rate, and machine learning tools that use prior knowledge in combination with biomedical big data are gaining much traction1,2. Knowledge graphs (KGs) are rapidly becoming the dominant form of knowledge representation. KGs are data structures that represent knowledge as a graph to facilitate navigation and analysis of complex information, often by leveraging semantic information. Their versatility has made them popular in areas such as data storage, reasoning, and explainable artificial intelligence3. However, for many research groups, building their own biomedical KG is prohibitively expensive. This motivated us to build the BioCypher framework to support users in creating KGs (https://biocypher.org).
