Construction and Application of Knowledge Graph for Water Engineering Scheduling Based on Large Language Model

Abstract

With the growth of water conservancy and the increasing demand for information, handling and representing large volumes of water-related data has become complex. Particularly, scheduling textual data often exists in natural language form, lacking clear structure and standardization. Processing and utilizing such diverse data necessitates extensive domain knowledge and professional expertise. To tackle this challenge, a method based on large language model has been proposed to construct a knowledge graph for water engineering scheduling. This approach involves collecting and preprocessing scheduling rule data at the data layer, leveraging large language models to extract embedded knowledge, constructing the ontology at the conceptual layer, and extracting the “three-step” method prompt strategy at the instance layer. Under the interaction of the data, conceptual, and instance layers, high-performance extraction of rule texts is achieved, and the construction of the dataset and knowledge graph is completed. Experimental results show that the F1 value of the extraction method in this paper reaches 85.5%, and the effectiveness and rationality of the modules of the large language model are validated through ablation experiments. This graph integrates dispersed water conservancy rule information, effectively handles unstructured textual data, and offers visualization querying and functionality tracing. It aids professionals in assessing water conditions and selecting appropriate scheduling schemes, providing valuable support for conservancy decision-making and intelligent reasoning.
