The standard reasoning problem, concept satisfiability, in the basic description logic ALC is PSPACE-complete, and it is EXPTIMEcomplete in the presence of unrestricted axioms. Sev...
Abstract. We show that subsumption problems in EL and related description logics can be expressed as uniform word problems in classes of semilattices with monotone operators. We us...
Unification in Description Logics has been proposed as a novel inference service that can, for example, be used to detect redundancies in ontologies. In a recent paper, we have sho...
In this work we summarize our recent results on extending Description Logics for reasoning about prototypical properties and inheritance with exceptions. First, we focus our attent...

We analyze the complexity of subsumption in probabilistic variants of the description logic EL. In the case where probabilities apply only to concepts, we map out the borderline be...
