A First-Order Cutting Process Ontology for Sheet Metal Parts
The semantic integration of manufacturing systems has been impeded by the lack of rigorous ontologies for specific domains of manufacturing processes and resources. In this paper w...

On Correspondences between Probabilistic First-Order and Description Logics
Abstract This paper analyzes the probabilistic description logic PSHIQ by looking at it as a fragment of probabilistic first-order logic with semantics based on possible worlds. We...

First-Order Logic with Reachability Predicates on Infinite Systems
This paper focuses on first-order logic (FO) extended by reachability predicates such that the expressiveness and hence decidability properties lie between FO and monadic second-o...

Fixed-parameter tractability, definability, and model checking
In this article, we study parameterized complexity theory from the perspective of logic, or more specifically, descriptive complexity theory. We propose to consider parameterized ...

Proof Reflection in Coq
We formalise natural deduction for first-order logic in the proof assistant Coq, using De Bruijn indices for variable binding. The main judgement we model is of the form d [:] , ...

On Role Logic
We present role logic, a notation for describing properties of relational structures in shape analysis, databases, and knowledge bases. We construct role logic using the ideas of ...

On Spatial Conjunction as Second-Order Logic
Abstract. Spatial conjunction is a powerful construct for reasoning about dynamically allocated data structures, as well as concurrent, distributed and mobile computation. While re...

The semijoin algebra and the guarded fragment
In the 1970s Codd introduced the relational algebra, with operators selection, projection, union, difference and product, and showed that it is equivalent to first-order logic. In ...

Finite information logic
We introduce a generalization of Independence Friendly (IF) logic in which Eloise (the player) is restricted to a finite amount of information about Abelard's ('s) move...
