We’re familiar with RAG – but which RAG is the right fit?
As organizations increasingly rely on AI-driven information retrieval and generation, traditional Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) systems often fall short in production environments. Various solutions have emerged to address this challenge, recognizing that “one size does not fit all” – each organization has unique requirements to tackle this issue within their framework.
Increase efficiency by up to 20% with Semantic RAG (AKA Graph RAG)This webinar explores an innovative solution: Semantic RAG, which harnesses the power of knowledge graphs, large language models (LLMs), and graph databases to enhance semantic retrieval and generation capabilities.
A key focus will be on LLM-derived knowledge graphs, demonstrating how they can be created and refined with human-in-the-loop processes to achieve greater accuracy and explainability. We’ll explore memory constructs in Graph RAG operations, illustrated through practical demonstrations using PoolParty and GraphDB.
We will dive into a real-world case study and explore the pipeline, architecture, and practical applications of Semantic RAG systems. This will showcase valuable insights into the seamless collaboration between PoolParty and GraphDB to deliver a robust Semantic RAG solution. Expert strategies will be shared for maximizing the impact of these innovative technologies by shortening time to insight, providing savvy querying for the untrained, and lowering long term maintenance costs.
Marcia Ferreira, Data and Knowledge Engineer (Technical Consultant) at Semantic Web Company, and Krasimira Bozhonova, Solutions Architect at Ontotext, will walk you through the following aspects and explain the benefits of a Semantic RAG approach:

CrossMediaForum 2024
2024-07-04 | Hotel Maritim, Goethestraße 7, Munich, Germany
Publishers and media companies are under pressure: they have to run their core business and develop innovative offerings at the same time – and do so with limited resources. This can only succeed if the core and, above all, content processes are as lean as possible and run without many manual activities or are supported by AI tools.
Under the motto “More creativity and customer-oriented media offerings through (AI) tool support and automation”, publishing managers and leading solution providers will present innovative and tried-and-tested processes and tools.
The event is held in German language.

CEO Andreas Blumauer’s talk at CrossMediaForum 2024

GPTs have revolutionized AI. Do we still need knowledge models and taxonomies, and why?In many specialist fields such as law, medicine or ESG, the central expectation of users is not only reliability and completeness but also a concise summary of information. If specialist publishers want to use AI technologies for their customers, they should not only create content for users using LLM, but also use a semantically processed knowledge base as a basis. In his presentation, Andreas Blumauer explains the interplay between LLM and graph technology and uses the example of the knowledge-hub.eco portal to show the advantages of this combined approach.

The problem of hallucinations, false information, and fabricated data is well known to searchers. It puts people off from trusting search results when generative AI is involved. As Large Language Models (LLMs) proliferate, not only in the open web search world but also in enterprise search, the issue of search results reliability becomes particularly critical. One potential solution to mitigate against hallucinations is RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation), an AI framework that enhances the quality and relevance of generated text. Hear about the latest developments in this webinar.
In this webinar, you will learn from Graft and PoolParty about:
– Using AI to clean and enrich data for better knowledge retrieval– Tackling inaccuracies and inconsistencies with RAG– Combining Knowledge Graphs and generative AI (LLMs) for knowledge retrieval– Leveraging generative AI to create and maintain a Knowledge Graph

What is Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)?
There has been a lot of buzz about the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). We have witnessed instances where the outcomes produced by LLMs are impressive, or at the very least, sound impressive, while at other times, the results may fall short. However, relying solely on an open-source LLM poses a few challenges – the information provided may be inaccurate, outdated, and lack clear sourcing. Retrieval Augemented Generation, or RAG, is a framework designed to enhance LLMs’ accuracy, relevance, and traceability by supplementing user-generated prompts with primary source data.
Leveraging Semantic Technology to enhance the capabilities of RAGAs we have seen, the possibilities for hallucinations (creation of false or misleading information) in LLMs is high. When looking at Generative AI in content creation, this defeats the purpose to assist the knowledge user in content creation by providing quick and reliable information. Worse yet, this poses a serious risk of disseminating inaccurate information in critical sectors such as pharmaceuticals, insurance, and health & safety, where even a single piece of incorrect data can have disastrous consequences.
Unlocking the true potential of Generative AI hinges on building AI you can rely on, or “AI you trust”. This ushers the need for combining LLMs with a myriad of tools and AI methodologies to develop trustworthy Generative AI solutions. Enter Semantic Retrieval Augmented Generation or Semantic RAG – a specialized technique in Advanced Retrieval Augmented Generation that leverages Semantic technology to seamlessly fuse knowledge models and retrieved data during the content generation process.
Watch our webinar to dive into details of Semantic RAG, such as:

Overcoming the limits of LLMs
Combining LLMs with other tools to create “AI you trust.”
Building Generative AI on a strong Semantic base
Developing a Domain Knowledge Model
Semantic Search and Vector Search in Generative AI

Following this 30-minute webinar we will have an interactive question and answer period in which you can ask Andreas Blumauer any questions you may have about Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), Semantic RAG, and Generative AI.

The best of 3 worlds: An SGE for ESGThis presentation will report on the integration of LLMs, semantic knowledge models and recommender systems that serve as the enabling technology for a Search Generative Experience (SGE). The presented application is at its core based on a comprehensive ESG domain model to provide sustainable investment and ESG practitioners with referenceable and reliable information.
Firstly, we address the question of what a practical search or question and answer engine should look like from the user’s perspective, especially when dealing with a complex domain such as ESG. How can users with different levels of knowledge and different roles and tasks be served and learn to understand relationships across a domain without losing the common thread? How can it be ensured that authoritative sources are always referenced, if they are available? How can this design pattern be applied to other application classes, e.g. when setting up a help and support desk for products that require explanation? In the second part of the presentation, we will discuss the underlying architecture and show how knowledge models provide key services for prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). In addition, we take a closer look at the underlying ESG knowledge model and learn about the principles according to which it is developed and how LLMs are used for this purpose. We briefly return to the roots of the Semantic Web and look at the data model from the perspectives of interoperability, explainability and the possibility of developing semantic models independently of the application logic and thus making them reusable.
Finally, we take a bird’s eye view and look at the presented SGE for ESG application as one facet of a more comprehensive knowledge hub. We see the underlying knowledge graph as the driver for the efficient development of domain-specific applications, e.g. to enable specific views of ESG data from investors or enterprises in the case of sustainable business.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are a hot topic, discussed from many different angles. There is a lot of excitement about what they can do, but also a lot of concern about how they do it.
It’s one thing to let generative AI write a poem or the description of a talk (not the case here), but can we trust it to give us the right answers to critical questions or make the right decisions? The clear disadvantages of this approach are the lack of explainability of the results, consistency, and accuracy of responses, the need for large amounts of high-quality data, and the potential for bias in the content generated by the models. One possible answer to these challenges is to combine these generative technologies with knowledge graphs that can help explain the results and support the generation of high-quality data to train the models. The combination of generative AI and symbolic AI can ultimately lead to eXplainable AI (XAI), which can help us in our daily work.
We will show the benefits of combining both technologies, how knowledge graphs and intelligent structured source content can help to create better and more explainable results with generative technologies, and how generative technologies can help to create better knowledge graphs. This combination will lead to the creation of intelligent content that enables deeper understanding and informed decision making.
Etteplan and Semantic Web Company have developed unparalleled experiences and capabilities in creating, developing, and maintaining consistent (technical) knowledge bases for many companies across multiple industries and markets – placing them in a unique position to leverage the true potential of Large Language Models.

Heterogeneous Data Formats Prohibit Advanced Analytics and AI
The pharmaceutical industry is experiencing a surge in scientific data due to the growing complexity of new therapeutic modalities and the urgency to bring improved therapeutics to market more efficiently. However, this valuable scientific data is often trapped in on-premise instrument control and acquisition software, compounded by the challenge of dealing with diverse vendor-specific data formats, thus inhibiting the potential of AI.
Is Engineered Scientific Data the Force Multiplier for AI?
In this webinar, we will explore a use case involving a leading pharmaceutical company that aims to provide its scientists and engineers with analytics and AI-ready data across multiple laboratories, departments, and facilities.
By making this data available, scientists can leverage prior work to inform their actions and improve scientific outcomes. Moreover, they can identify and accelerate the most promising scientific strategies , leading to substantial time and cost savings.

DITA vs iiRDS
While DITA was designed for content creation, iiRDS is designed for content delivery – a perfect combination.
How do we enhance content creation and accessibility?
In this webinar, we will show how we automatically generate a generic content graph from DITA and then transform it into iiRDS to make the content retrievable more easily. This allows for better and more targeted search results. It is even possible to semi-automatically package relevant parts of the documentation to answer specific questions or fulfill specific use cases.
In addition, Asset Administration Shell (AAS) submodels enable the automatic provision of additional metadata that enhances the iiRDS graph, e.g. directly selecting the right product variant for specific content.
Our webinar is based on work for an international Bolter Miner manufacturer. A use case highlighting the ehancements provided by iiRDS, AAS, and intelligent content will demonstrate how these can provide a service technician with the right information to solve support cases as well as the operator of the machine with the right e-learning material to improve their skills.

Great for storing and sharing documents, Microsoft SharePoint is one of the most used workplace intranets on the global market. But many companies suffer from the problem of not being able to find the documents they need within their SharePoint libraries – hence the need to streamline document search experiences.
Getting precise results in a fraction of the time
Alex is a user who is searching for a specific document on biodiversity. She enters the term in SharePoint’s native search field, and gets hit with 7 pages of results filled with inconsistent titles and poor descriptions. The metadata is bad, so a query that should’ve taken only a couple minutes now takes 15.
Now consider how Alex’s experience would drastically improve if the search would return only 1 page of documents and she also had the ability to narrow down the results according to content types, dates, topics, etc. The metadata is good and the search environment has been optimized to ensure that she can get her desired document in the original time she expected.

This is an actual scenario we have tested in our semantic search solution called PoolParty for SharePoint. Join our webinar to see more of this in a live demo!

A taxonomy is the starting point, and it’s likely that you have one in your company already
A taxonomy is championed for its ability to index information in a hierarchically structured format according to the relations between them. It is these relations that help semantic search be so effective, and why a PoolParty taxonomy that sits at the base of your SharePoint libraries could make all the difference.
Our webinar, led by Helmut Nagy, COO, and Daniel Gallar, Associate Director of Sales at Semantic Web Company will walk you through these technical aspects and explain the benefits of PoolParty for SharePoint:

What is the solution?
How can you quickly get it started using a taxonomy?
What are the additional advantages that semantic technologies bring?

In the meantime, have a look at our product page to learn more about how PoolParty for SharePoint can be used to enhance your experience of SharePoint Online.
We hope to see you there!

Generative AI, Context, & Knowledge ModelsWhen search technologies moved from the web to the enterprise, the incorporation of knowledge models (taxonomies and ontologies) provided more accurate and complete search results. Now that we are looking to bring LLMs (large language models such as ChatGPT) and generative AI from the public web to inside the enterprise, there is again a role for knowledge models to provide better results. The subject domain and context can also make a difference. The advantages of combining a taxonomy/ontology with generative AI and limiting it to a subject domain is explained and demonstrated.

Towards recommendations that actually help
As consumers we are used to recommender systems that give us a series of “Others also bought” or “You might also like” suggestions. In the workplace, these types of recommendations aren’t particularly useful because they often suggest more of the obvious and don’t factor in the requirements of employee queries.
What is a smart recommender system and how can it help in the digital workplace?
Employees have specific tasks; they must write a report based on new regulations, provide customer support for a product issue, and close a deal based on a prospect’s use case – to name a few. To accomplish each of these tasks, the employee must extract and assemble information that fits and complements the specific work context at hand.
Smart recommender systems in the digital workplace do not produce trivial ‘more of the same’ information, but understand to some extent how information actually fits together.
With the upcoming release of the new PoolParty Recommender, we are helping knowledge workers complete their often complex work steps more efficiently and error-free with a knowledge-based recommender system.
The PoolParty Recommender is tailored to your organization and its specific knowledge domain, making them more accurate than any approach using only machine learning.
Join our webinar to celebrate this new release with us, and dive into the details with CEO Andreas Blumauer:

What is a knowledge-based recommender system?
The PoolParty Recommender Workbench: how its methodology and technical capabilities set it apart from other recommenders on the market
Common use cases found in the workplace
Demos of the product, including how it can be used in a front-end user application

After this webinar, you will understand:

How the PoolParty Recommender overcomes the limitations of collaborative filtering and content-based algorithms
How organizations especially benefit from a domain-specific model, AKA a recommender that’s built specifically for you
How to easily integrate the PoolParty Recommender Workbench with your existing software

We hope to see you there!

Making the ESG puzzle pieces fit
The multidisciplinary nature of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) means that putting data together to make it understandable and actionable can be a rather demanding task.
Using data to help avoid an outbreak of invasive species
In this on-demand webinar, Les Kneebone, Information Architect and Digital Librarian at CEBRA, will discuss a project that collects biosecurity research metadata from open access sources, such as government, industry and research institution repositories. The project uses technology, including PoolParty Taxonomy Management and Unified Views, to organize, transform and tag biosecurity research. The goal is to make biosecurity gray literature more accessible, and to address terminology issues for answering biosecurity questions that are typically asked in the ESG space.
After this webinar you’ll understand:

What is biosecurity
What does biosecurity research cover
How to build new biosecurity taxonomies, assisted by corpus linguistic analysis
How to collect and transform metadata
Possibilities for intersecting concepts and schemes to gain insights to ESG problems

Additionally, Sebastian Gabler, Chief Customer Office at Semantic Web Company, will deliver a live demo of a semantic knowledge hub that captures various sources of data and presents all the relevant information in a user-friendly way. Our goal is to show attendees how organizations can leverage taxonomies to bridge information gaps in the knowledge-intensive domain of ESG.
