Abstract. This paper studies a technique for mapping ALCI knowledge bases into ALC. Worst-case optimal tableau-based procedures for the satisfiability/consistency problem w.r.t. g...
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...
Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is an approach to knowledge engineering, representation, and analysis. A `standard' FCA-workflow starts with some `experimental' data, class...
Absorptions are generally employed in Description Logics (DL) reasoners in a uniform way regardless of the structure of an input knowledge base. In this paper we present an approac...
Abstract. Web services are increasingly used for building enterprise information systems according to the Service Oriented Architecture (Soa) paradigm. We propose in this paper a t...
