Abstract
Provided are techniques for performing a search using a hypergraph. Entities are identified. A knowledge graph using the entities is generated, wherein nodes of the knowledge graph represent the entities and edges between the nodes represent pair-wise relationships, and wherein each of the edges carries an edge score that quantifies a degree of coherence between a pair of the entities. A hypergraph using the knowledge graph is generated, wherein nodes of the hypergraph represent the entities and hyperedges represent relationships between multiple entities, and wherein each of the hyperedges carries a hyperedge score that quantifies a degree of coherence between the multiple entities. A search request is received. A search result is generated using the hypergraph, wherein the search result comprises a set of coherently related entities. The search result is returned.
