Abstract
Aspects discussed herein present a solution for utilizing large-scale knowledge graphs for inference at scale and generating explanations for the conclusions. In some embodiments, aspects discussed herein learn inference paths from a knowledge graph and determine a confidence score for each inference path. Aspects discussed herein may apply the inference paths to the knowledge graph to improve database lookup, keyword searches, inferences, etc. Aspects discussed herein may generate a natural language explanation for each conclusion or result from one or more inference paths that led to that conclusion or result. Aspects discussed herein may present the best conclusions or results to the user based on selection strategies. The presented results or conclusions may include generated natural language explanations rather than links to documents with word occurrences highlighted.
