Machine reasoning as a service

A system comprising:

• one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, by the one or more computers, a query from a client device associated with a user;
• identifying, by the one or more computers, a knowledge graph based on data indicative of the user that submitted the query;
• traversing, by the one or more computers, a path through the identified knowledge graph using data extracted from the received query;
• generating, by the one or more computers, path data that represents the traversed path taken by the one or more computers through the identified knowledge graph, the generating comprising:
• generating, by the one or more computers, a graphical illustration that illustrates the traversed path taken by the one or more computers through one or more connecting nodes of the identified knowledge graph according to the data extracted from the received query to at least some connected entities and corresponding relationships between entities of the identified knowledge graph, wherein the graphical illustration represents a path that is readable and understandable by the user;
• and
• generating, by the one or more computers, results of the generated path data, wherein the results comprise (i) one or more nodes in the identified knowledge graph where the traversal ended, (ii) statistical data illustrating confidences of matches between the data extracted from the received query to at least some of the connected entities and the corresponding relationships between the connected entities in the identified knowledge graph;
• and
• providing, by the one or more computers and to the client device, the generated path data responsive to the query.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more computers which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, by the one or more computers, a query from a client device associated with a user;
• identifying, by the one or more computers, a knowledge graph based on data indicative of the user that submitted the query;
• traversing, by the one or more computers, a path through the identified knowledge graph using data extracted from the received query;
• generating, by the one or more computers, path data that represents the traversed path taken by the one or more computers through the identified knowledge graph, the generating comprising:
• generating, by the one or more computers, a graphical illustration that illustrates the traversed path taken by the one or more computers through one or more connecting nodes of the identified knowledge graph according to the data extracted from the received query to at least some connected entities and corresponding relationships between entities of the identified knowledge graph, wherein the graphical illustration represents a path that is readable and understandable by the user;
• and
• generating, by the one or more computers, results of the generated path data, wherein the results comprise (i) one or more nodes in the identified knowledge graph where the traversal ended, (ii) statistical data illustrating confidences of matches between the data extracted from the received query to at least some of the connected entities and the corresponding relationships between the connected entities in the identified knowledge graph;
• and
• providing, by the one or more computers and to the client device, the generated path data responsive to the query.
