Select a knowledge-graph EXTRACTION approach for a given source — structured
database integration vs LLM-based triple extraction vs iText2KG (incremental)
vs RAKG (document-level) — by scoring a SOURCE PROFILE against five features
(handles unstructured text, incremental-friendly, document-level context,
determinism, setup cost), per Ch3 "Extraction Approaches for Heterogeneous
Sources". A structured source hard-routes to schema materialization; the
`incremental-cost` helper makes the iText2KG win concrete (re-process only
new documents, not the entire corpus). Use when picking how to ingest a
source into an agent's knowledge graph. NOT for choosing the graph MODEL
