GenAI can potentially revolutionise organisational decision-making, but trust in its recommendations is crucial. How can we ensure accuracy? Knowledge Graphs hold the answer. About this topic, he recently wrote a blog “Knowledge Graphs improve GenAI” together with Magnus Carlsson from Capgemini and Tomaz Bratanic from Neo4j.
NODES 2024: Road to NODES
Road to NODES is back in 2024, and we are excited to host a couple of hands-on workshops ahead of NODES 2024. Our topics in this year’s workshops range from Neo4j Fundamentals to App Building on Aura, Graph Visualisation with Neo4j Bloom to Mastering GraphRAG, which should be something for everybody!GRAPHRAG: Integrating Microsoft GraphRAG into Neo4j
Microsoft’s GraphRAG implementation has gained significant attention lately. Tomaz Bratanic shows us in this post how to store the MSFT GraphRAG output into Neo4j and then set up retrievers directly from Neo4j using LangChain and LlamaIndex orchestration frameworks.GRAPH DATA: Everything You Need to Know About Graph Databases & Neo4j
Martin Jurran wrote an in-depth article about graph databases, highlighting their advantages in handling complex relationships. It also outlines Neo4j’s architectural goals, including ease of use, performance, reliability, and scalability, explaining why it is a powerful tool for developers and architects dealing with connected data.KNOWLEDGE GRAPH: Knowledge Graph for Napoleon History Using Neo4j
Homayoun designed a knowledge graph on Napoleon’s history to enhance LLM outputs, demonstrating how GraphRAG outperforms VectorRAG in accuracy and precision.POST OF THE WEEK: Kalmin
The Neo4j database has an inbuilt browser.
