This paper proposes a paraconsistent and nonmonotonic extension of description logic by planting a nonmonotonic mechanism called minimal inconsistency in paradoxical description lo...
Abstract. Developing a good formalism and an efficient decision procedure for the instance checking problem is desirable for practical application of description logics. The data c...
Bipolarity is an important feature of spatial information, involved in the expression of preferences and constraints about spatial positioning or in pairs of opposite spatial relat...
Abstract. Multi-attribute negotiation has been extensively studied from a gametheoretic viewpoint. In negotiation settings, utility functions are used to express agent preferences....
Abstract. Model-based most specific concepts are a non-standard reasoning service in Description Logics. They have turned out to be useful in knowledge base completion for ontologi...
Unification in Description Logics has been proposed as a novel inference service that can, for example, be used to detect redundancies in ontologies. In a recent paper, we have sho...
Multiple distributed and modular ontology representation frameworks have recently appeared. They typically extend Description Logics (DL), with new constructs to represent relation...
Unsatisfiable concepts are a major cause for inconsistencies in Description Logics knowledge bases. Popular methods for repairing such concepts aim to remove or rewrite axioms to r...
Sophisticated uncertainty representation and reasoning are necessary for the alignment and integration of Web data from different sources. For this purpose the extension of the Des...
