Knowledge Graph Development for App Store Data Modeling

Usage of mobile applications has become a part of our lives today, since every day we use our smartphones for communication, entertainment, business and education. High demand on apps has led to significant growth of supply, yet large offer has caused complications in users’ search of the one suitable application. The authors have made an attempt to solve the problem of facilitating the search in app stores. With the help of a website crawling software a sample of data was retrieved from one of the well-known mobile app stores and divided into 11 groups by types. These groups of data were used to construct a Knowledge Schema – a graphic model of interconnections of data that characterize any mobile app in the selected store. Schema creation is the first step in the process of developing a Knowledge Graph that will perform applications clustering to facilitate users’ search in app stores
