I built an open-source tool to distill books into knowledge graphs
The article discusses the creation of SpineDigest, an open-source tool designed to convert books into structured knowledge graphs. This tool aims to help users retain information better by organizing concepts and relationships from the text. It utilizes a three-stage process involving chunk extraction, knowledge graph construction, and adversarial summarization to enhance the reading experience.

- ▪It employs a three-stage pipeline to extract knowledge units, cluster them by similarity, and create a refined summary.
