Personal Knowledge Graphs: Connected thinking to boost productivity, creativity and discovery - E-book - ePub

Is your thinking connected? Do you write, read, research and think for work or leisure? Then you'll have years of notes, ideas, articles and images. But all those thoughts are decaying. They are stuck in dusty notebooks, forgotten files on old backups and buried emails. What if.  all the thinking you had ever done was live, fresh and connected? adding new knowledge popped up connections to writing and reading you had forgotten? you could travel through your thoughts like surfing the web? That is connected thinking.
That is a Personal Knowledge Graph. In Personal Knowledge Graphs, experts and researchers explore the latest uses of PKGs. We mine the bumps to productivity, creativity and serendipity that come from a PKG practice. And delve into new developments and novel ways of thinking about and using PKGs to go beyond just linking topics and text. Want to expand your mind and go deeper with PKGs?Personal Knowledge Graphs: Connecting Thinking to Boost Productivity, Creativity and Insight will link you to the cutting edge of tools for thought. Praise for Personal Knowledge Graphs: Connected thinking to boost productivity, creativity and discovery As a productivity coach, I use PKGs primarily for making knowledge actionable-which has implications for the intake, development, and output of knowledge.
The essays Velitchkov and Anadiotis have assembled in Personal Knowledge Graphs cover a wide variety of important PKG topics. Some essays are more philosophical, some are more pragmatic, but all of them deepened my understanding of how I can get the most out of the PKG tools I use.- R. J. Nestor, Productivity in Tools for Thought expert------------------Knowledge Graphs are now widely accepted in industry and government as an effective way to combine, store and query large volumes of heterogeneous data.
This book is the first to open the door to a new application of knowledge graphs: individual citizens that want to have control over their own data, with applications ranging from personal archiving all the way up to a personal digital assistant. The book is a collection of accessible contributions that open the door to this new vision on personal knowledge management.- Prof. Frank van Harmelen------------------As the data that individuals need to manage is becoming increasingly complex, there has been a rise in the development of tools and practices to assist in this process.
This new generation of tools, although not necessarily based on open and enterprise graph approaches, seem to be converging with them on some level. These tools allow individuals to manage their data as personal knowledge graphs, experienced interactively with edges that can be traversed linking content, in a manner akin to explorations with a "thinking partner". This timely book thoroughly reviews current research around personal knowledge graphs, with the aim to empower individual users, promoting productivity, data literacy, sovereignty, and interoperability, as well as highlighting future directions.- Prof J.
