GeoNames Semantic Primes
Dataset Overview
We propose a dataset at the core of our semantic towers methodology which combines vectorized knowledge graph information to augment a Retrieval-and-Generation (RAG) pipeline.
Dataset Construction
The dataset is constructed by deriving and building the semantic tower - an ensemble of primitive semantic information related to a term - of 660 category classes related to geographical locations. These locations are themselves classified into 9 higher-level categories, e.g. H for stream, lake, and sea, and R for road and railroad and are derived from the original GeoNames dataset.
The semantic tower encompasses information gathered from Wikidata, specifically:
- label
- instance of
- subclass of
- part of
- represents
- description
This information forms the smallest subset of knowledge needed to distinguish a term from another.
Embeddings Generation
The vector embeddings are generated using the General Text Embeddings (GTE) large model.
