We propose KnowGL, a tool that allows converting text into structured relational data represented as a set of ABox assertions compliant with the TBox of a given Knowledge Graph (KG), such as Wikidata. We address this problem as a sequence generation task by leveraging pre-trained sequence-to-sequence language models, e.g. BART. Given a sentence, we fine-tune such models to detect pairs of entity mentions and jointly generate a set of facts consisting of the full set of semantic annotations for a KG, such as entity labels, entity types, and their relationships. To showcase the capabilities of our tool, we build a web application consisting of a set of UI widgets that help users to navigate through the semantic data extracted from a given input text. We make the KnowGL model available at https://huggingface.co/ibm/knowgl-large.

Agentic AI is rapidly transitioning from research prototypes to enterprise deployments, where requirements extend to meet the software quality attributes of reliability, scalability, and observability beyond plausible text generation. We present Agentics 2.0, a lightweight, Python-native framework for building high-quality, structured, explainable, and type-safe agentic data workflows. At the core of Agentics 2.0, the logical transduction algebra formalizes a large language model inference call as a typed semantic transformation, which we call a transducible function that enforces schema validity and the locality of evidence. The transducible functions compose into larger programs via algebraically grounded operators and execute as stateless asynchronous calls in parallel in asynchronous Map-Reduce programs. The proposed framework provides semantic reliability through strong typing, semantic observability through evidence tracing between slots of the input and output types, and scalability through stateless parallel execution. We instantiate reusable design patterns and evaluate the programs in Agentics 2.0 on challenging benchmarks, including DiscoveryBench for data-driven discovery and Archer for NL-to-SQL semantic parsing, demonstrating state-of-the-art performance.
