Samsung Acquires UK Knowledge Graph Startup OxfordSemanticTechnologies

TapTechNews July 18th news, today (July 18th), Samsung Company released a press release announcing the acquisition of the UK knowledge graph startup OxfordSemanticTechnologies to further enhance the local AI functions and provide users with a more personalized AI experience.

TapTechNews queried public information. OxfordSemanticTechnologies was founded in 2017 by three Oxford University professors, Ian Horrocks, Boris Motik, and Bernardo Cuenca Grau.

The company's current flagship product is the AI engine RDFox, which has already cooperated with organizations in the financial, manufacturing, and e-commerce fields in Europe and North America.

The highlight of this AI engine is that through the knowledge graph technology, information is stored as an interconnected network of related ideas, and the way it processes data is similar to the way humans acquire, remember, recall, and reason knowledge.

By integrating and connecting data, this technology can enhance the understanding of how people use products or services and enable rapid information retrieval and recommendations. Therefore, it is considered one of the key technologies to achieve more complex and more personalized artificial intelligence solutions.

However, the Oxford Semantic Technologies company has already developed the knowledge graph technology and successfully commercialized it, which can optimize data processing and achieve advanced reasoning in the cloud and on devices.
