Using Lazy Unfolding for the Computation of Least Common Subsumers
For description logics with existential restrictions, the size of the least common subsumer (lcs) of concept descriptions may grow exponentially in the size of the concept descrip...

On Step Width Adaptation in Simulated Annealing for Continuous Parameter Optimisation
Simulated annealing is a general optimisation algorithm, based on hill-climbing. As in hill-climbing, new candidate solutions are selected from the ‘neighbourhood’ of the curre...

Representing Transitive Propagation in OWL
Transitive propagation along properties can be modelled in various ways in the OWL description logic. Doing so allows existing description logic reasoners based on the tableaux alg...
