Abstract. In this paper, we compare merging operators in possibilistic logic. We first propose an approach to evaluating the discriminating power of a merging operator. After that...
In this chapter, we summarize the research on querying inconsistent databases we have been conducting over the last five years. The formal framework we have used is based on two c...
Traditionally, computational complexity has considered only static problems. Classical Complexity Classes such as NC, P, and NP are de ned in terms of the complexity of checking {...
A universal model of a database D and a set Σ of integrity constraints is a database that extends D, satisfies Σ, and is most general in the sense that it contains sound and co...
We consider expressive Description Logics (ALCN) allowing for number restrictions on complex roles built with combinations of role constructors. In particular, we are mainly inter...
