Cognitive Analytics Data Model

The following diagram shows how the families used in Cognitive Analytics are related to one another.

Cognitive Analytics Data Model

Note: In the diagram, boxes represent entity families and arrows represent relationship families; the arrow points from the predecessor family to the successor family.

Cognitive Analytics facilitates the classification of both structured and unstructured data into a standardized, classified format. The Classified Equipment Standard family and the Classified Work History Standard family, represented in the image above, are used to store classified data when historical data from the Equipment family or the Work History family has been processed with a Cognitive Analytics cognition.

Families other than the Classified Equipment Standard family and the Classified Work History Standard family can be used to store classified data, but the relationship definition in the Has Classified Data relationship family must be modified to include them.

Alternatively, classified data can be stored in the existing Equipment and Work History families, but it should be stored in new, parallel fields to avoid overwriting the historical data.
