KG-Hub
A collection of biological and biomedical Knowledge Graphs, including their component data sources.

Build your own KG
Purpose
The purpose of Knowledge Graph Hub (KG Hub) is to provide a platform for building knowledge graphs (KGs) by adopting a set of guidelines and design principles.
The goal of KG Hub is to serve as a collective resource to simplify the process of generating biological and biomedical KGs and thus reducing the barrier for entry to new participants.
In a KG Hub, each independent effort for building a KG is an instance of the KG Hub.
For example, KG-COVID-19, a light-weight ETL framework for building a COVID-19 KG, is an instance of KG Hub.
Design Principles
- Each instance of KG Hub,
- should live in its own GitHub repository within the Knowledge-Graph-Hub organization.
- should have code and/or configurations for Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) and must be reproducible.
- should do their best to model their data using the Biolink Model, where possible.
- should make use of ontologies from the OBO Foundry, where possible.
- should be responsible for the veracity of the datasets that they ingest and are responsible for keeping track of evidence and provenance for assertions in their KG.
- should provide their KG for download and must follow semantic versioning guidelines.
- should provide their KG in the KGX interchange format in addition to their format of choice.
- must have a License, Contributing guidelines, Code of Conduct, and be open to the community for contributions as well as consumption.
Optionally, each instance of a KG Hub can also provide a Docker image such that their code can be run easily as a container.
