Abstract

A Knowledge Graph (KG) is a formal and structured representation of facts, relationships, and semantic descriptions of a set of entities. Traditionally, KGs are used to describe metadata about entities and to provide additional context to target application results. Many real-world domains also involve temporal interactions between entities in addition to the metadata data. Modeling these attributed transactions is a critical requirement when using KGs in complex real-world applications. Modeling adversarial activities is one such application that develops methodology and tools to produce realistic large-scale background activity graphs that include embedded Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) activity patterns. We present a novel platform for constructing a transactional knowledge graph from a diverse set of sources. We present the core components and architecture of the framework, and a use case for generating a background knowledge graph and WMD activity template to evaluate network alignment and subgraph matching algorithms.
