Neo4j APOC Library Use Case Author Wenyi Pi ( ORCID: 0009–0002–2884–277) Introduction In the realm of Neo4j, the APOC (Awesome Procedures on Cypher) library stands as a powerful tool. Previously, We have talked about the importance of APOC in optimising Cypher queries and improving query efficiency in our article Exploring Methods of Cypher Query Optimisations.

A novel approach to improving the efficiency of text search in graph databases utilizing Neo4j, OpenAI, and Typesense. Authors Nakul Nambiar (ORCID: 0009–0009–9720–9233) Aishwarya Nambissan (ORCID: 0009–0003–3823–6609) The ability to use cutting-edge tools and frameworks is essential for staying ahead in the ever-changing field of technology.

OK, so the title is pure click bait, but here's the thing. It seems to me that the Semantic Web as classically conceived (RDF/XML, SPARQL, triple stores) has had relatively little impact outside academia, whereas other technologies such as JSON, NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB, CouchDB) and graph databases (e.g., Neo4J) have got a lot of developer mindshare. In biodiversity informatics the Semantic Web has been a round for a while.

Following on from Testing the GBIF taxonomy with the graph database Neo4J I've added a more complex test that relies on linking taxa to names. In this case I've picked some legume genera ( Coursetia and Poissonia ) where there have been frequent changes of name.

I've been playing with the graph database Neo4J to investigate aspects of the classification of taxa in GBIF's backbone classification. Neo4J is a graph database, and a number of people in biodiversity informatics have been playing with it. Nicky Nicolson at Kew has a nice presentation using graph databases to handle names Building a names backbone, and the Open Tree of Life project use it in their tree machine.
