Is Information Extraction a Synergy Between Knowledge Graph and Knowledge Mining?

Information extraction is a rich domain of research and practice in and of itself, extracting information from particularly unstructured sources like blocks of text and images. Are there synergies when you're looking at the problem in conjunction with the knowledge graph problem? Or do you take off the shelf extraction techniques and then apply them in a vacuum and then you have some bundle of structured information that you then integrate into your knowledge graph? Sure. So it is helping each other in terms of how the two fields are growing. It's really the, at the time when knowledge graph is getting popular in industry, that's the time we see a boost for information extraction.
