Abstract:With the ability to harness the power of big data, the digital twin (DT) technology has been increasingly applied to the modeling and management of structures and infrastructure systems, such as buildings, bridges, and power distribution systems. Supporting these applications, an important family of methods are based on graphs. For DT applications in modeling and managing smart cities, a large-scale knowledge graph (KG) is needed to represent the complex relationships and model the urban infrastructure as a system of systems. To this end, this paper develops a conceptual framework Automated knowledge Graphs for Complex Systems (AutoGraCS). In contrast to existing KGs developed for DTs, AutoGraCS can support KGs accounting for statistical correlations and interdependencies within the complex systems. The established KGs from AutoGraCS can then be easily turned into Bayesian networks for probabilistic modeling and Bayesian analysis. Besides, AutoGraCS provides flexibility in support of users’ need to implement the ontology and rules when constructing the KG. With the user-defined ontology and rules, AutoGraCS can automatically generate a KG to represent a complex system consisting of multiple systems. The bridge network in Miami-Dade County is used as an illustrative example to generate a KG that integrates multiple layers of data from the bridge network, traffic monitoring facilities, and flood water watch stations.
