Abstract: A method and system for tracking a course of a cable using electromagnetic waves. A first transceiver sends to a second transceiver a first signal wirelessly in a linear line. The second transceiver sends back to the first transceiver the first signal in the linear line.

A second distance between the first transceiver and the second transceiver is determined by comparing a phase difference between the first signal received by the second transmitter and the second signal received by the second transmitter.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product for eliminating a redundant node from a knowledge graph is provided. A structural analysis of a knowledge graph is performed by determining that two nodes have a similar structure. An empirical analysis is performed by determining a search result correlation of potentially redundant nodes, said search result correlation comprising a correlation of search result nodes generated from different search queries to said knowledge graph or a correlation of search results due to selected search result nodes in subtrees of said potentially redundant nodes. Results of said structural analysis and said empirical analysis are combined to generate a redundancy confidence level value for two said nodes. One of said two nodes is determined as redundant. One of said two redundant nodes is removed from the knowledge graph.
