Providing search results based on compositional query

A technique for providing search results may include determininga first entity type, a second entity type, and a relationship type based on a compositional query. The technique may also include identifying nodes of a knowledge graph corresponding to entity references of the first entity type and entity references of the second entity type. The technique may also include determining from the knowledge graph an attribute value corresponding to the relationship type for each entity reference of the first entity type and for each entity reference of the second entity type. The technique may also include comparing the attribute value of each entity reference of the first entity type with the attribute value of each entity reference of the second entity type. The technique may also includedeterminingone or more resultant entity references from the entity references of the first entity type based on the comparing.
