Analysing Multiple Versions of an Ontology: A Study of the NCI Thesaurus
The detection of changes between OWL ontologies is an important service for ontology engineering. There are several approaches to this problem, both syntactic and semantic. A purel...

Practical Epistemic Entailment Checking in SROIQ
In this paper, we present a reasoner capable of epistemic inferences in SROIQ knowledge bases. We first identify some counter intuitive effects of imposing the traditional semant...

The Complexity of Probabilistic EL
We analyze the complexity of subsumption in probabilistic variants of the description logic EL. In the case where probabilities apply only to concepts, we map out the borderline be...

On (In)Tractability of OBDA with OWL 2 QL
We show that, although conjunctive queries over OWL 2 QL ontologies are reducible to database queries, no algorithm can construct such a reduction in polynomial time without changi...

Implementing Completion-Based Inferences for the EL-family
Completion algorithms for subsumption are investigated for many extensions of the description logic EL. While for several of them subsumption is tractable, this is no longer the ca...

Concept Model Semantics for DL Preferential Reasoning
Abstract. The preferential and rational consequence relations first studied by Lehmann and colleagues play a central role in non-monotonic reasoning, not least because they provid...
