Reasoning Support for Expressive Ontology Languages Using a Theorem Prover
It is claimed in [45] that first-order theorem provers are not efficient for reasoning with ontologies based on description logics compared to specialised description logic reasone...

A Decomposition Rule for Decision Procedures by Resolution-Based Calculi
Resolution-based calculi are among the most widely used calculi for theorem proving in first-order logic. Numerous refinements of resolution are nowadays available, such as e.g. ...

A Quad-Tree Based Multiresolution Approach for Two-dimensional Summary Data
In many application contexts, like statistical databases, scientific databases, query optimizers, OLAP, and so on, data are often summarized into synopses of aggregate values. Su...

Generating Efficient Plans for Queries Using Views
We study the problem of generating e cient, equivalent rewritings using views to compute the answer to a query. We take the closed-world assumption, in which views are materialize...

Markov logic networks
We propose a simple approach to combining first-order logic and probabilistic graphical models in a single representation. A Markov logic network (MLN) is a first-order knowledge b...
