In recent years, we have witnessed a revival of the use of recursive queries in a variety of emerging application domains such as data integration and exchange, information extraction, networking, and program analysis. A popular language used for expressing these queries is Datalog. This paper surveys for a general audience the Datalog language, recursive query processing, and optimization techniques. This survey differs from prior surveys written in the eighties and nineties in its comprehensiveness of topics, its coverage of recent developments and applications, and its emphasis on features and techniques beyond “classical” Datalog which are vital for practical applications. Specifically, the topics covered include the core Datalog language and various
extensions, semantics, query optimizations, magic-sets optimizations, incremental view maintenance, aggregates, negation, and types. We conclude the paper with a survey of recent systems and applications that use Datalog and recursive queries.
We defined named entity recognition (NER) in the legal domain and presented our approach towards generating ground truth data. In what follows, we go over the state-of-the-art in the NER domain and elaborate on the experiments we ran and the lessons we learned.
Read MoreNamed entity recognition is a difficult challenge to solve, particularly in the legal domain. Extracting ground truth labels from long, hierarchical documents is often slow and prone to error. RelationalAI proposes a new, scalable algorithm based on the principles of data-centric AI, designed to meet this challenge and generate high-quality annotations with minimal supervision.
