More than 90% of information we receive is either unstructured or semi-structured. While other AI techniques are able to find patterns and discover structure, network graphs provide an important aspect of reasoning – the ability to connect dots and bring centuries of knowledge to interpret and analyze these patterns. This video discusses how graphs enable us to read massive amounts of unstructured information, align entities from disparate sources, and synthesize meaningful abstractions. Technological advancements have placed graphs in everyone’s reach and yet, there is so much to learn on how to use and exploit this technology for business purposes. The video offers a set of applications and case studies that show how Graph AI can be used in a variety of business settings.
Introduction
This video discusses how graphs enable us to read massive amounts of unstructured information from disparate sources and synthesize meaningful summaries.

Video Transcript
Introduction to Graph AI for Business. Customer engagements are aggressively looking for fast turnaround on quality decision making, utilizing all available structured and non-structured data. They want support for proactive, online recommendations to improve customer service. The concept of using graph databases to map relationship digitally started seeing popular usage in business around 2015 with increased compute power, in-memory computing, multiprocessing, and agreed-upon standards moved the concept from academics to real-world uses in business and enterprise computing.
Our definition of Graph AI includes knowledge graph and incorporation of other AI techniques like natural language processing, machine learning, deep learning, and Elasticsearch. Authors of this video book include Dr. Arvind Sathi and Neena Sathi.
Introduction. We welcome you to this Introduction to Graph AI for Business Media Book. In this section, we will provide outline for the content, expected outcome, associated audience, and a brief bio on the authors of this video book.
Outline. This video book is divided into multiple sections. Section 1 provides an introduction to the video book including outline, audience, expected outcome, and authors. In Section 2, we will describe how Graph AI has evolved over the past 50 years. Section 3 will introduce graph case study for real-life example on COVID-19 use case. It will introduce challenges associated with contact tracing problem for this case study.
In Section 4, we will introduce how Graph AI can be used to solve the contact tracing and associated insights. In Section 5, we’ll describe a benefit case for this contact tracing Graph AI solution and how this solution can be used in other use cases needing group behavior. In Section 6, we will introduce another case study for Graph AI solution for movie recommendation for streaming platforms. We will introduce problem or view as seen by streaming platform providers on how to match your liking and preferences with content inventory to improve market share and remain competitive in the marketplace.
In Section 7, we will describe users of this Graph AI solution and associated insights for movie recommendation case study. In Section 8, we will provide benefit case for this movie recommendation case study. Finally, in the last section, we will summarize the video contents, and we’ll discuss related documentation and references to move forward with Graph AI learning.
Expected outcome. What will you get out of this video book? You will be able to describe what is a Graph AI and its role in developing insights for large masses. You will understand how Graph AI has evolved over the past 50 years. You will be able to understand and articulate the use case for Graph AI solution. You will be able to define benefit case of Graph AI solution, and finally, you will learn how to design a graph AI analytics experience.
Audience. So who will benefit from this video book? The first audience represents business professionals interested in exploring use cases for Graph AI technology. Second audience represents IT professionals engaged in developing Graph AI applications. For them, this video book provides a common language of communication and a framework to define specific projects.
This video book has evolved through graduate-level classes, and this video book remains a good overview for a business student studying general management, analytics, or information technology. With our consulting background, we have seen the need for training the solution provider and consulting community. The video book will definitely benefit vendors, consultants, and service providers and will enhance their ability to consult and sell related solutions.
