Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with equivalence reasoning are described. One example method includes constructing a clique map that maps groups of equivalent resources to a representative canonical resource. The clique map is constructed by iteratively inputting batches of equivalence pairs from a semantic model to operating memory and building, in operating memory, one or more cliques for the input batch. Cliques for various input batches of equivalence pairs are merged in memory to produce the clique map for use by the semantic model. Triples associated with the semantic model may be consolidated by replacing resources that are in a clique with their corresponding representative canonical resource.
