GraphRAG · 08.3 relation candidate validation

Relation Candidate Inspector

Inspect candidate entity pairs in their original sentence context before relation patterns are consolidated into a graph schema. The viewer keeps the same validation workflow as the entity stage: filter the corpus, inspect the evidence, and only then promote structure downstream.

Initial relation discovery: 372 unique candidate pairs were generated from detected entities. The current default view keeps only adjacent entity pairs because they provide the most compact evidence for discovering reusable relation patterns. Pair confidence comes from the underlying entity detections; it is not a learned relation-confidence score.

What to inspect

Check whether the highlighted text actually expresses a relation, whether the direction is sensible, and whether similar wording can be normalized into one reusable relation type.
