This reminds me story: during my first (failed) PhD attempt, I had a supervisor working on a knowledge graph system for education. Great! I was doing something very similar, except I had an algorithm for presenting it in a linear way. So I shared my concern that students will not be able to understand and make use of a graph representation. Like almost everything I said in the following years, it was immediately dismissed and I quickly stopped trying to work on this with that guy. Fast forward 2-3 years later, I ask about a student that was somewhat working on that project with this supervisor, he replied "oh, I stopped working on that, it doesn't work, student are confused by the graph!" In the meantime, I've also read a paper in another field that said users don't understand graph representation. I still think that graphs can be useful for knowledge management, but it has to stay an implementation details not shown to the user. |
