Traditional Vietnamese Medicine (TVM) and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have shared significant similarities due to their geographical location, cultural exchanges, and hot and humid climatic conditions. However, unlike TCM, which has substantial works published to construct a knowledge graph, there is a notable absence of a comprehensive knowledge graph for TVM. This paper presents the first endeavor to build a knowledge graph for TVM based on extensive existing resources from TCM. We name our knowledge graph as VieMedKG. We propose a translation and filtration process to adapt TCM knowledge graphs to TVM, identifying the overlapping and unique elements of TVM. In addition, the constructed knowledge graph is then exploited further for developing a curated benchmark for the knowledge graph-based question-answering problem with the potential to support doctors and patients in assisting doctors and patients in identifying various diseases. Our work will not only bridge the gap between TCM and TVM but also set the foundation for future research into traditional Vietnamese medicine community. Our source code is publicly available at https://github.com/HySonLab/VieMedKG/.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
