Overview

There are many large, generic semantic graphs (e.g. WikiData, DBpedia, etc.) alongside growing numbers of domain-specific ones. LLMs offer a quick path to KG extraction but introduce: Inconsistency: erratic, non-deterministic entity resolution; Inaccuracy: missing or hallucinated predicates; Context loss: unstable frames of reference; Confidence: displaying confidence regardless of accuracy; Speed: impractical at scale. We are developing an AGI-focused KG tooling suite tackling these challenges via four modules—Context Identification, Entity Management, Predicate Management, and Confidence Management. This proposal addresses Context Identification for efficient framing of noisy KGs.

Apr. 16, 2025

This RFP seeks the development of advanced tools and techniques for interfacing with, refining, and evaluating knowledge graphs that support reasoning in AGI systems. Projects may target any part of the graph lifecycle — from extraction to refinement to benchmarking — and should optionally support symbolic reasoning within the OpenCog Hyperon framework, including compatibility with the MeTTa language and MORK knowledge graph. Bids are expected to range from $10,000 - $200,000.

Milestone 1 - Block Factorization of WikiData Knowledge Graphs

Description

In this milestone we will ingest a JSON dump of WikiData selecting a suitable subset of the properties available and use it to create a test knowledge graph. We will write a production-quality implementation of the block factorization algorithm and test it on the resulting WikiData knowledge graph. We will detail the accuracy and computational efficiency of the decomposition and provide instructions on how to use the software for factorizing large graphs or as a recommender system.

Deliverables

Software for efficient block factorization of large knowledge graphs tooling for ingestion of WikiData and details of the results of factorizing the WikiData knowledge graph.

Budget

$30,000 USD

Success Criterion

Fully operational, general-purpose graph factorization software, with a demonstration on WikiData, and accompanying documentation.

Milestone 2 - Assign Entities & Predicates to Reference Frames

Description

This milestone will probabilistically assign entities and predicates associated with those entities to the frames of reference determined in the first milestone. A specific entity can be assigned to more than one frame of reference - the degree of belonging is constrained to be 1 or less but there is no constraint on the sum of frame of reference assignment values as appropriate. Assignment of entities between more than one frame of reference provides the link between the different elements of the KG. Assignment of entities will be demonstrated on the same WikiData KG used earlier.

Deliverables

Software for entity assignment of factorized knowledge graphs tooling for ingestion of factorized graphs and details of the results of assignment for the WikiData knowledge graph.

Budget

$20,000 USD

Success Criterion

Fully operational, entity assignment software with a demonstration on WikiData and accompanying documentation.

Milestone 3 - Frame of Reference Evaluation and Final Report

Description

The use of factorization into context-driven frames of reference enables more accurately guided and more efficient traversal of large KGs for specific tasks. This we believe introduces a focus mechanism which removes the superfluous information contained in large KGs that will be needed when using AGI-scale KGs for real-world tasks. This milestone will evaluate the quality of this focus.

Deliverables

Detailed report of experimental findings on the factorization and entity assignment of large KGs with efficiency and accuracy assessments determined using WikiData and other KGs as appropriate.

Budget

$10,000 USD

Success Criterion

Delivery of final report.

Warning: Adding final group rating for this project will prevent expert users from adding new or editing existing reviews

Reviews and Ratings in Deep Funding are structured in 4 categories. This will ensure that the reviewer takes all these perspectives into account in their assessment and it will make it easier to compare different projects on their strengths and weaknesses. Overall (Primary) This is an average of the 4 perspectives. At the start of this new process, we are assigning an equal weight to all categories, but over time we might change this and make some categories more important than others in the overall score. (This may even be done retroactively). Feasibility (secondary) This represents the user\'s assessment of whether the proposed project is theoretically possible and if it is deemed feasible. E.g. A proposal for nuclear fission might be theoretically possible, but it doesn’t look very feasible in the context of Deep Funding. Viability (secondary) This category is somewhat similar to Feasibility, but it interprets the feasibility against factors such as the size and experience of the team, the budget requested, and the estimated timelines. We could frame this as: “What is your level of confidence that this team will be able to complete this project and its milestones in a reasonable time, and successfully deploy it?” Examples:

A proposal that promises the development of a personal assistant that outperforms existing solutions might be feasible, but if there is no AI expertise in the team the viability rating might be low.
A proposal that promises a new Carbon Emission Compensation scheme might be technically feasible, but the viability could be estimated low due to challenges around market penetration and widespread adoption.

Desirability (secondary) Even if the project team succeeds in creating a product, there is the question of market fit. Is this a project that fulfills an actual need? Is there a lot of competition already? Are the USPs of the project sufficient to make a difference? Example:

Creating a translation service from, say Spanish to English might be possible, but it\'s questionable if such a service would be able to get a significant share of the market

Usefulness (secondary) This is a crucial category that aligns with the main goal of the Deep Funding program. The question to be asked here is: “To what extent will this proposal help to grow the Decentralized AI Platform?” For proposals that develop or utilize an AI service on the platform, the question could be “How many API calls do we expect it to generate” (and how important / high-valued are these calls?). For a marketing proposal, the question could be “How large and well-aligned is the target audience?” Another question is related to how the budget is spent. Are the funds mainly used for value creation for the platform or on other things? Examples:

A metaverse project that spends 95% of its budget on the development of the game and only 5 % on the development of an AI service for the platform might expect a low ‘usefulness’ rating here.

A marketing proposal that creates t-shirts for a local high school, would get a lower ‘usefulness’ rating than a marketing proposal that has a viable plan for targeting highly esteemed universities in a scaleable way.
An AI service that is fully dedicated to a single product, does not take advantage of the purpose of the platform. When the same service would be offered and useful for other parties, this should increase the ‘usefulness’ rating.
