Modelling Object Typicality in Description Logics
Abstract. We present a semantic model of typicality of concept members in description logics that accords well with a binary, globalist cognitive model of class membership and typicality. We define a general preferential semantic framework for reasoning with object typicality in description logics. We propose the use of feature vectors to rank concept members according to their defining and characteristic features, which provides a modelling mechanism to specify typicality in composite concepts.
