🚀 Knowledge Engineering Workflow

graph LR
    A[📁 Load Unstructured Data] --> B[🔧 Design Semantic Pipeline]
    B --> C[🏗️ Build Semantic Layer]
    C --> D[🔍 Query Knowledge Graph]
    D --> E[📊 Analyze & Visualize]

1. Load Unstructured Data

from semantica import Semantica

core = Semantica()
core.ingest_unstructured_data("./documents/", "./emails/", "./databases/")

2. Design Semantic Pipeline

pipeline = core.create_semantic_pipeline()
pipeline.add_parser("pdf", "docx", "email", "database")
pipeline.add_extractor("entities", "relationships", "events")
pipeline.add_ontology_engineer("domain_ontology")
pipeline.add_quality_validator("semantic_quality")

3. Build Semantic Layer & Query

semantic_layer = core.build_semantic_layer()
kg = core.construct_knowledge_graph()

# Semantic queries
results = kg.semantic_query("Find all regulatory requirements affecting Q4 trading activities")
semantic_analysis = semantic_layer.analyze_relationships("fraud_detection_patterns")
