The main objective of the Lynx research and innovation project is to create an ecosystem of smart cloud services to better manage compliance, based on a Legal Knowledge Graph (LKG) that integrates and links multilingual and heterogeneous compliance data sources including legislation, case law, standards, regulations and other private contracts, besides others.
This webinar is the kick off of a webinar series of in total 4 webinars taking place between December 2020 and March 2021 (Webinar 1: Lynx overview, Webinar 2: Business Cases, Webinar 3: Technology of Lynx, Webinar 4: The Lynx Services) as well as a virtual event taking place on 17th of March 2021, 09.30 - 12.00pm CET including panel discussions and expert sessions on Lynx related topics (knowledge graphs, legaltech, compliance solutions, etc).

9. Legal Knowledge Graph
“
Graphs form the
foundation of data fabrics
and knowledge graphs,
explainable AI and can
accelerate ML and AI
model performance.
Top 10 Trends in
Data and Analytics,
2020
Gartner Inc.
(Rita Sallam et al.)
What Is Driving the Top 10 Data & Analytics Technology Trends?
10. Why Knowledge Graphs - what’s the problem?
1. Knowledge graphs (KGs)
bring unstructured and
structured data together.
2. KGs are the ultimate
linking engine for
(enterprise) data
management.
3. KGs automatically generate
unified views of
heterogeneous and initially
unconnected data sources,
such as Customer 360.
4. KGs provide reusable data
sets to be used in analytics
platforms or to train machine
learning algorithms.
5. KGs help with the
dismantling of data silos. A
semantic data fabric is the
basis for more detailed
analyses.
6. Knowledge graphs are an
efficient way to work
together.
11. What is an (Enterprise) Knowledge Graph (EKG)?
An Enterprise Knowledge Graph
(EKG) contains business objects and
topics that are closely linked,
classified, semantically enriched,
and connected to existing data and
documents.
12. “
Poor data quality is the
unintended
consequence of data
silos and poor data &
analytics governance*

MANAGEMENT’, SALLY PARKER AND SIMON WALKER, OCTOBER 2019
Knowledge Graphs are Infrastructure
13. The Knowledge Graph Cookbook
▸ What are the three core principles of semantic
AI—FAIR, XAI, HITL—and how they fit together?
▸ What are the ingredients, various roles,
techniques, and basic recipes in order to cook a
knowledge graph?
▸ How to get started with your knowledge graph
project?
▸ What is a data catalog and a semantic data
fabric—and how can you benefit from them?
▸ How could the future of knowledge technologies
and AI—in a post-corona society—look like?
14. The Knowledge Graph Cookbook
▸ 1st
edition, available from April 2020
▸ Available in 3 versions
• Free PDF
• Kindle edition (EUR 9.99 or )
• Paperback
▸ Based on more than 20 years of industry
experience
▸ 256 pages (7 chapters + addendum)
▸ 49 infographics
▸ 177 bibliographic references
▸ 11 Expert interviews
15. The Legal Knowledge Graph
How to represent multilingual, multijurisdictional annotated
documents from different domains (law, standards…)? Before Lynx….
Identification and description:
- ELI in EU and some member states
- Different identifiers in other member states
- Different for non-legislation
Content structuring:
- CEN Metalex, Akoma Ntoso (LegalDocML) in some
countries
- AKN4EU still draft, different formats for other
legislations
- ... and for other document types
Annotations:
- NIF prevailing, no consisting JSON-LD described
16. The Legal Knowledge Graph
The idea of Lynx document:
• One single data structure
• Data model is the LKG ontology
• Able to be validated with RDF Shapes
• Standard JSON-LD version
• Annotated with NIF
18. The Legal Knowledge Graph
Beyond …
• Graph of documents
• ...linked to terminological data
• ...linked to other local entities
• ...linked to other external entities

20. Geothermal Energy Compliance
• Problem space
• fragmented landscape of sources (legislation and regulations) in
multiple languages
• changing regulation
• Solution space
• demonstrate how comprehensive legal taxonomies, help the user to
find and select relevant regulatory documents
• semantic similarity between the user's document and the collected
documents
• improve the accessibility and discoverability of data
21. Labor Law
• Problem space
• fragmented landscape of sources (legislation and regulations) in
multiple languages (in the labour domain)
• changing regulation
• Solution space
• demonstrate how search and Q&A can help the user to find the
correct answer to a legal question
22. Contract Analysis
• Problem space
• spreaded information of contract related information within companies
in different formats and systems / locations
• Solution space
• harvesting documents in different formats, eg. pdf, doc, email
• demonstrate how annotations, help the user to find and select
relevant documents
• arrange documents in multiple dimensions
• improve the discoverability of documents
30. Key Principles
1. Token-based OAuth2 protocol for authorization together with the
centralized access control and authorization rules management based
on Keycloak,
2. LynxDocument schema,
3. Containerized deployment in an orchestrated application platform,
4. Workflow manager based on Camunda,
5. LinkedDataPlatform-inspired document manager,
6. Common rules for the development of web APIs — REST + API
gateway patterns.

35. TESTIMONIALS
“The Lynx project touches upon an important and
emerging topic demonstrated through a very high
engagement rate of our audience. The way the geothermal
sector deals with data and information will be key for
actual geothermal development on the ground.”
Gregor Rumberg, Technical Director International Geothermal Association
