Accretion: the daily practice of adding nodes and edges to a knowledge graph that produces nonlinear growth through compound connections, where each new node can potentially link to every existing node and creates increasing value over time
Why This Is a Definition
This definition establishes the precise meaning of 'accretion' as a specific cognitive and structural process within knowledge graph development. It specifies the mechanism (daily addition of nodes and edges), the mathematical foundation (nonlinear compound growth), and the functional outcome (increasing value over time), distinguishing it from simple accumulation or batch processing.
