Revolutionizing HR Recruiting with Knowledge Graphs and LLMs: Introducing Zenia Graph's HR Recruiting Accelerator
Traditional HR recruiting often feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. Companies are inundated with resumes, and candidates are overwhelmed by the sheer number of job listings. Time-consuming manual processes, coupled with the challenge of finding the perfect candidate-job match, hinder efficiency and lead to suboptimal hiring decisions and missed opportunities. To revolutionize this critical function, Zenia Graph co-founders, Aurelije Zovko and Nina Zovko introduce their HR Recruiting Accelerator, a cutting-edge solution powered by the synergy of knowledge graphs and large language models.
Breathing new life into old drugs: The promise of drug repositioning
In the ever-evolving world of pharmaceuticals, an intriguing strategy has gained traction: drug repositioning. Also known as drug repurposing, reprofiling, redirecting, or switching— this approach involves finding new uses for existing medications. While it comes with its own set of challenges, drug repositioning offers several advantages, including a potential solution to the current slowdown in new drug discovery.

Fragmented knowledge in pharma: Bridging the divide between private and public data
This post has also been published on the Digital Science TL;DR website.
Despite the increasing availability of public data, why are so many pharma and life sciences organizations still grappling with a persistent knowledge divide? This discrepancy was a focal point at the recent BioTechX conference in October, Europe's largest biotechnology congress that brings together researchers and leaders in pharma, academia and business. In this post, we explore the need to connect data from different sources and all internal corporate data through one, integrated semantic data layer.
Introducing: Next-generation Semantic Search
When it comes to leveraging your enterprise data, having a wealth of quality data is only half the battle. The other half is having the right tools and technology to help you extract valuable insights from it and uncover new opportunities. That’s why we were eager to introduce metaphactory's Next-Generation Semantic Search (Next-gen Search), as part of the metaphactory 5.0 release.

An Interconnected System for Reference Data
Publishing FAIR data in the humanities sector
Reference data is a crucial element of data curation in the cultural heritage and humanities sector. Using reference data brings multiple benefits, such as consistent cataloguing, easier lookup and interaction with the data, or compatibility with other data collections that use the same reference data. Overall, the use of reference data can support the publication of FAIR data - data that is findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.
In museum collection management, for example, various thesauri can be used as reference data to ensure the accurate and consistent cataloguing of items in a controlled manner and according to specific terminologies. Thesauri exist for various areas of expertise. One example is the Getty Art and Architecture Thesaurus® (AAT) which describes the different types of items of art, architecture and material culture, such as "cathedral" as a type of religious building. Authority data has also been published to support the unique identification of specific entities such as persons, organizations, or places, for example, "Cologne cathedral" as a specific instance of the type "cathedral". Such authority data sources include The Integrated Authority File (GND) or the Union List of Artist Names® Online (ULAN) and are specifically important for disambiguating over entities with the same name, e.g., Boston, the town in the UK, and Boston, the city in the USA.
Digital humanities projects often combine several research directions and use materials that cover multiple disciplinary areas. This makes the implementation of reference data difficult, as several reference data sources need to be used to cover all aspects and facets of a project. Moreover, technical access to reference data is inconsistent, with systems using different interfaces and APIs, which makes integration challenging.
Investigative knowledge graph exploration & targeted problem solving with metaphactory’s pathfinding interface
Finding paths in a graph is a well defined space in mathematics and computer science. The Seven Bridges of Königsberg problem from 1736 - which asked to devise a roundtrip through the city of Königsberg in Prussia while crossing each bridge in the city only once - is one of the most famous real world problems and resulted in the foundations of today's graph theory.
While the term pathfinding might often be associated with finding the shortest path (for example, in a geographical context or in computer networks), the seven bridges problem is a good example showing that the shortest path is not necessarily the optimal or desired path for a given problem or information need.
GraphDB & metaphactory Part I: Generating Value from Your Knowledge Graph in Days
Large enterprises have identified knowledge graphs as a solid foundation for making data FAIR and unlocking the value of their data assets. Data fabrics built on FAIR data drive digital transformation initiatives that put companies ahead of the competition.
But while the benefits of knowledge graphs have become clear, the road to their implementation has often been long and complex, and success has relied on the involvement of seasoned knowledge graph experts.
This blog post goes through the basics of the joint solution delivered by Ontotext and metaphacts to speed up this journey.
