Abstract

A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for using travel-related cognitive graph vectors.

Claims

1. A method for refining cognitive insights using cognitive graph vectors comprising:

storing travel-related data from a plurality of data sources within a cognitive graph;

associating a first set of the travel-related data within the cognitive graph with a first travel-related cognitive graph vector of a plurality of travel-related cognitive graph vectors;

associating a second set of the travel-related data within the cognitive graph with a second travel-related cognitive graph vector of the plurality of cognitive graph vectors;

processing the travel-related data from the plurality of data sources to provide travel-related cognitive insights; and

refining the travel-related cognitive insights based upon a limitation relating to one of the plurality of travel-related cognitive graph vectors.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein:

the first travel-related cognitive graph vector comprises a plurality of first cognitive graph vector indices extending along the first travel-related cognitive graph vector away from a cognitive graph nexus;

the second travel-related cognitive graph vector comprises a plurality of second cognitive graph vector indices extending along the second travel-related cognitive graph vector away from the cognitive graph nexus;

the limitation comprises limiting the first set of travel-related data to travel-related data within a first certain index of the plurality of first cognitive graph vector indices; and

the refining comprising limiting the second set of travel-related data to travel-related data within a second certain index of the second cognitive graph vector indices.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

associating a third set of travel-related data within the cognitive graph with a third travel-related cognitive graph vector of the plurality of travel-related cognitive graph vectors; and

, wherein

the refining of the travel-related cognitive insights based upon the limitation relating to one of the plurality of travel-related cognitive graph vectors further comprises identifying a limitation on one of the first, second and third travel-related cognitive graph vectors and refining another of the first, second and third travel-related cognitive graph vectors based upon the limitation of one of the first, second and third travel-related cognitive graph vectors.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein:

the first travel-related cognitive graph vector comprises a plurality of first cognitive graph vector indices extending along the first travel-related cognitive graph vector away from a cognitive graph nexus;

the second travel-related cognitive graph vector comprises a plurality of second cognitive graph vector indices extending along the second travel-related cognitive graph vector away from the cognitive graph nexus;

the third travel-related cognitive graph vector comprises a plurality of third cognitive graph vector indices extending along the third travel-related cognitive graph vector away from the cognitive graph nexus;

the limitation comprises limiting the first set of travel-related data to travel-related data within a first certain index of the plurality of first cognitive graph vector indices;

the refining comprising limiting the second set of travel-related data to travel-related data within a second certain index of the second cognitive graph vector indices and travel-related data within a third set of travel-related data; and

the refining further comprising limiting the third set of travel-related data to travel-related data within a third certain index of the third cognitive graph vector indices.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein:

at least some of the first cognitive graph vector indices, second cognitive graph vector indices and third vector graph indices are different magnitudes.

6. The method of claim 4, wherein:

at least some of the first cognitive graph vector indices, second cognitive graph vector indices and third vector graph indices are substantially similar magnitudes.
