GQA - Languages for Graph Querying and Analytics

The main goal of the French-Chilean research team is to combine the graph query languages expertise of the Inria group with the machine learning and graphs analytics expertise of the Chilean group to come up with a new generation of query languages that seamlessly integrate graph querying with analytics. The team will use as the initial basis the query language Cypher, developed in Neo4j (the graph database market leader; the language is currently implemented by many others including Amazon and SAP). Due to its leading role, Cypher serves as the basis for the newly developed standard for the Graph Query Language GQL; however, that standard is not expected to be published before very late 2023. The team will look into integrating data analytics tasks with Cypher and later with GQL. This involves key tasks of graphical projection and incorporation of analytics tasks in a query language.
