Study and Formalization of a Case-Based Reasoning System Using a Description Logic
In this paper the C-CLASSIC Description Logic is used to design the retrieval and selection tasks of a Case-Based Reasoning system with homogeneous, explicit and formal criteria. T...

Computing Probabilistic Least Common Subsumers in Description Logics
Computing least common subsumers in description logics is an important reasoning service useful for a number of applications. As shown in the literature, it can, for instance, be u...

Reasoning with Individuals for the Description Logic SHIQ
Abstract. While there has been a great deal of work on the development of reasoning algorithms for expressive description logics, in most cases only Tbox reasoning is considered. I...

Query Processing with Description Logic Ontologies Over Object-Wrapped Databases
This paper presents an approach to answering queries over an ontology modelled using a description logic. The ontology acts as a global schema, providing a declarative description...

Using Preference Order in Ontologies
The latest ontology languages can be translated into a description logic (DL), thus providing them with a formal semantics and associated reasoning procedures. We introduce the or...

A Defeasible Ontology Language
We extend the description logic ¢¤£¦¥¦§©¨ with a preference order on the axioms. With this strict partial order certain axioms can be overruled, if defeated with more ...

Defeasible Description Logics
We propose to extend description logic with defeasible rules, and to use the inferential mechanism of defeasible logic to reason with description logic constructors.
