Here is a list of the most important innovations that Google has introduced since 2010 on the way to becoming a semantic search engine:
2010: Google buys Freebase , a semantic database created by the company Metaweb with structured, machine-readable data on entities. The first version of the Knowledge Graph was fed by data from Freebase. In 2014, Freebase was transferred to the Wikidata project. Of the original 10 million records from Freebase, only a portion was transferred. For example, my own record on the entity " olaf kopp ", which I created in Freebase in 2012, was not transferred to Wikidata. I manually updated it there. Nevertheless, my data from the former Freebase database is still displayed in the form of a knowledge panel and expanded with additional information.
2012: Google introduces the Knowledge Graph in azerbaijan cell phone number list the form of Knowledge Panels and Knowledge Cards into search. A Knowledge Graph is a knowledge database in which information is structured in such a way that knowledge is created from the information. In a Knowledge Graph, entities (nodes) are related to one another via edges, assigned attributes and placed in thematic context or ontologies .

2013: Google introduces the Hummingbird update as a new generation of ranking algorithms. The introduction of Hummingbird on Google's 15th birthday in 2013 was the final launch of semantic search for Google. Google itself described this algorithm update as the most significant since the Caffeine update in 2010. At the time of its introduction, it affected around 90% of all search queries and was a real algorithm update compared to Caffeine. It is intended to help interpret more complex search queries better and to better identify the actual search intent or question behind a search query and to offer suitable documents. matched with the search query at the document level .

2014: Google introduces the Knowledge Vault . A system for identifying and extracting tail entities to drive the expansion of the "long tail of knowledge". The Knowledge Vault enables Google to automate data mining from unstructured sources and could be the basis for subsequent innovations in natural language processing.
