Use Cases
Semantica is designed to solve complex data challenges across various domains. This guide explores common use cases and how to implement them.
🔬 Research & Science
-
:material-microscope: Research Paper Analysis
Extract structured knowledge from academic papers to discover trends, relationships, and key concepts.
Goal: Ingest PDFs, extract entities (Authors, Concepts, Methods), and build a citation network.
-
:material-dna: Biomedical Knowledge Graphs
Accelerate drug discovery and understand disease pathways.
Goal: Connect genes, proteins, drugs, and diseases from scientific literature and databases.
Key Entities: Gene, Protein, Drug, Disease, Pathway.
💼 Finance & Trading
-
:material-finance: Financial Market Intelligence
Analyze market trends and sentiment from news and reports.
Goal: Ingest earnings call transcripts, news articles, and analyst reports to gauge market sentiment.
-
:material-chart-line: Algorithmic Trading Signals
Generate alpha by connecting disparate data points.
Goal: Build a graph of companies, supply chains, and global events to identify non-obvious trading signals.
-
:material-bitcoin: Blockchain Analytics
Trace funds and identify illicit activity.
Goal: Map transaction flows between wallets and exchanges to detect money laundering or fraud.

🏥 Healthcare & Life Sciences
-
:material-hospital-box: Medical Record Analysis
Transform unstructured patient notes into structured medical histories.
Goal: Extract Symptoms, Diagnoses, Medications, and Procedures, linking them temporally.
-
:material-account-heart: Patient Journey Mapping
Visualize and analyze the complete patient experience.
Goal: Connect clinical encounters, lab results, and patient feedback to improve care delivery.
🛡️ Security & Intelligence
-
:material-shield-lock: Cybersecurity Threat Intelligence
Proactively identify and mitigate cyber threats.
Goal: Ingest threat feeds (STIX/TAXII), CVE databases, and system logs to map attack vectors.
-
:material-eye: Open Source Intelligence (OSINT)
Gather and analyze public information for intelligence purposes.
Goal: Connect data from social media, news, and public records to build profiles.
-
:material-account-network: Criminal Network Analysis
Analyze criminal networks to identify key players, communities, and suspicious patterns.
Goal: Build knowledge graphs from police reports, court records, and surveillance data to detect criminal structures and relationships.
-
:material-shield-search: Law Enforcement and Forensics
Process forensic evidence and correlate cases using temporal knowledge graphs.
Goal: Extract entities from case files, evidence logs, and witness statements to build temporal case timelines and identify cross-case connections.
-
:material-incognito: Fraud Detection
Detect complex fraud rings.
Goal: Build a graph of Users, Devices, IP Addresses, and Transactions to find cycles and dense subgraphs.

🏭 Industry & Operations
-
:material-truck-delivery: Supply Chain Optimization
Visualize and optimize complex global supply chains.
Goal: Map suppliers, logistics routes, and inventory levels to identify bottlenecks.
-
:material-wind-turbine: Renewable Energy Management
Optimize grid operations and asset maintenance.
Goal: Connect sensor data, weather forecasts, and maintenance logs to predict failures.
🤖 Advanced AI Patterns
-
:material-robot: Graph-Augmented Generation (GraphRAG)
Enhance LLM responses with structured ground truth.
Goal: Use the knowledge graph to retrieve precise context for RAG applications.
-
:material-domain: Corporate Intelligence
Unify internal documents into a single semantic layer.
Goal: Connect People, Projects, and Decisions across the organization.
-
:material-gavel: Legal Document Review
Analyze contracts and legal texts.
Goal: Parse contracts, extract clauses, and identify relationships like "supersedes".

from semantica import Semantica
# 1. Initialize with domain-specific configuration
semantica = Semantica(domain="finance")
# 2. Ingest Data
docs = semantica.ingest.load("data/", recursive=True)
# 3. Build Knowledge Graph
kg = semantica.kg.build_graph(docs)
# 4. Analyze or Query
insights = semantica.kg.query("MATCH (c:Company)-[:HAS_RISK]->(r:Risk) RETURN c, r")
