Abstract. Inconsistency handling in expressive description logics is an important problem because inconsistency may naturally occur in an open world. In this paper, we present the ...
In this work we summarize our recent results on extending Description Logics for reasoning about prototypical properties and inheritance with exceptions. First, we focus our attent...

Abstract. Description Logic Programs (DLP) have been described as a description logic (DL) that is in the "expressive intersection" of DL and datalog. This is a very weak...
Abstract. Inconsistency handling is of growing importance in Knowledge Representation since inconsistencies may frequently occur in an open world. Paraconsistent (or inconsistency-...
Abstract. One of the most frequently used inference services of description logic reasoners classifies all named classes of OWL ontologies into a subsumption hierarchy. Due to emer...
Semantic interoperability is essential on the Semantic Web to enable different information systems to exchange data. Such interoperability can be achieved by identifying similar in...
Translations to (first-order) datalog have been used in a number of inferencing techniques for description logics (DLs), yet the relationship between the semantic expressivities o...
We study the problem of deciding whether two ontologies are inseparable w.r.t. a signature Σ, i.e., whether they have the same consequences in the signature Σ. A special case is...
A class of interval-based temporal languages for uniformly representing and reasoning about actions and plans is presented. Actions are represented by describing what is true whil...
Forthcoming in the Journal of Aritificial Intelligence We introduce mathematical programming and atomic decomposition as the basic modal (T-Box) inference techniques for a large c...
