|
|
import asyncio
|
|
|
|
|
|
async def main():
|
|
# Add text to cognee
|
|
await cognee.add("Natural language processing (NLP) is an interdisciplinary subfield of computer science and information retrieval.")
|
|
|
|
# Generate the knowledge graph
|
|
await cognee.cognify()
|
|
|
|
# Query the knowledge graph
|
|
results = await cognee.search("Tell me about NLP")
|
|
|
|
# Display the results
|
|
for result in results:
|
|
print(result)
