Abstract. To make ABox reasoning scalable for large ABoxes in description logic (DL) knowledge bases, we develop a method for partitioning the ABox so that specific kinds of reaso...
Abstract. In this work we propose an alternative approach to inference in DLLite, based on a reduction to reasoning in an extension of function-free Horn Logic (EHL). We develop a ...
Abstract. Revision of a Description Logic-based ontology to incorporate newly received information consistently is an important problem for the lifecycle of ontologies. Many approa...
Abstract. We investigate the concept product as an expressive feature for description logics (DLs). While this construct allows us to express an arguably very common and natural ty...
Abstract. Four-valued description logic has been proposed to reason with description logic based inconsistent knowledge bases, mainly ALC. This approach has a distinct advantage th...
