Elsevier is a leading provider of quality scientific data to the global research sector. We are all too aware that high-quality, well-structured data is the cornerstone of any data-driven product – particularly relevant as we are caught in the disruptive excitement of the Gen AI wave. We mustn’t lose sight of the role good data plays – garbage in garbage out is as applicable now as ever.

The generation and availability of high-quality data relies on good data governance and the adoption of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data principles, including ontologies. Our semantic technology stack and domain expertise helps drive this adoption. Structured data, such as ontology-tagged text and Knowledge Graphs can be the bedrock of explainable GenAI solutions such as we are seeing in the arena of scientific search.
