- The Knowledge Graph is a knowledge base used by Google to enhance its search engine's search results with semantic-search information gathered from a wide variety of sources. Knowledge Graph display was added to Google's search engine in 2012, starting in the United States, having been announced on May 16, 2012. It provides structured and detailed information about the topic in addition to a list of links to other sites. The goal is that users would be able to use this information to resolve their query without having to navigate to other sites and assemble the information themselves.[1]
According to Google, this information is derived from many sources, including the CIA World Factbook, Freebase and Wikipedia.[2] The feature is similar in intent to answer engines such as Ask Jeeves and Wolfram Alpha. As of 2012[update], its semantic network contained over 570 million objects and more than 18 billion facts about and relationships between these different objects which are used to understand the meaning of the keywords entered for the search.
