Abstract. This paper investigates Description Logics which allow transitive closure of roles to occur not only in concept inclusion axioms but also in role inclusion axioms. First,...
Practical applications of description logics (DLs) in knowledge-based systems have forced us to introduce the following features which are absent from existing DLs: • allowing a...
The development and use of ontologies may require users with no training in formal logic to handle complex concept descriptions. To aid such users, we propose a new visualization f...
Abstract. Representing concept lattices constructed from large contexts often results in heavy, complex diagrams that can be impractical to handle and, eventually, to make sense of...

Matching of concepts with variables (concept patterns) is a relatively new operation that has been introduced in the context of concept description languages (description logics),...
