Idea-Native Discovery

Idea Graph

Definition

The knowledge structure underlying idea-native discovery—a graph where nodes are ideas and edges are typed relationships. The idea graph sits above traditional bibliographic records, linking to them via provenance relationships.

Example

The idea graph contains 'climate change' → INVOLVES → 'greenhouse effect', → HAS_ETHICAL_DIMENSION → 'climate justice', → POLICY_APPROACH → 'adaptation vs mitigation'. Each idea links to containers (books, articles) that embody it.
