Enum: KnowledgeLevelEnum

The level of knowledge that supports an edge or node. This is a general categorization of the type of evidence that supports a statement, and is not intended to be a comprehensive description of the evidence. For example, a statement may be supported by a single publication, but that publication may contain multiple types of evidence, such as a computational prediction and a manual curation. In this case, the knowledge level would be "curated", and the evidence would be described in more detail in the evidence graph.

Permissible Values

Value	Meaning	Description
knowledge_assertion	None	Knowledge asserted by a human expert, based on their interpretation of data or published study results
statistical_association	None	Statistical associations calculated between variables in a clinical or omics dataset, by an automated analysis pipeline
prediction	None	Predictions generated computationally through inference over less direct forms of evidence (without human intervention or review)
observation	None	Edge reports a phenomenon that was reported/observed to have occurred (and possibly some quantification, e.g. how many times, at what frequency)
not_provided	None	The knowledge level/type fora statement is not provided, typically because it cannot be determined from available information.
logical_entailment	None	a statement reporting a conclusion that follows logically from premises, which are typically well-established facts or knowledge assertions. (e.g. fingernail part of finger, finger part of hand → fingernail part of hand)). Logical entailments are based on dedictive inference, and generally have a high degree of confidence when based on sound premises and inference logic.
mixed	None	A statement that is supported by a mix of different types of evidence, such as a combination of manual curation and computational prediction. This is a catch-all category for statements that do not fit cleanly into one of the other categories.
other	None	A knowledge level that does not fit into any of the other categories. This is a catch-all category for knowledge levels that are not covered by the other categories.
