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...
This paper investigates an optimization technique for reasoning with qualified number restrictions in the description logic ALCQHR+ . We present a hybrid architecture where a stan...
Abstract The effective management and exploitation of multimedia documents requires the extraction of the underlying semantics. Multimedia analysis algorithms can produce fairly ri...
We consider two recently proposed definitions of the expressive power of description logics, one due to Baader, the other due to Kurtonina and de Rijke. The proposals are non-equi...
In description logics, concrete domains are used to model concrete properties such as weight, name, or age, having concrete values such as integers or strings, with built-in predic...
