This work deals with the application of kernel methods to structured relational settings such as semantic knowledge bases expressed in Description Logics. Our method integrates a n...
The paper presents a prototype system HD-Rules (Hybrid integration of Description Logic and Rules) that integrates normal clauses under the wellfounded semantics with ontologies sp...

It is known that for temporal languages, such as firstorder LT L, reasoning about constant (time-independent) relations is almost always undecidable. This applies to temporal des...

As a vision for the future of the Web, the Semantic Web is an open, constantly changing and collaborative environment. Hence it is reasonable to expect that knowledge sources in th...
Abstract. A four-valued description logic has been proposed to reason with description logic based inconsistent knowledge bases. This approach has a distinct advantage that it can ...
As a tractable description logic, DL-Lite provides a good compromise between expressive power and computational complexity of inference. It is therefore important to study ways of ...
Abstract. We present a semantic model of typicality of concept members in description logics that accords well with a binary, globalist cognitive model of class membership and typi...

This paper is the successor to two previous papers published at the ICFCA conference. In the first paper we have shown that in the Description Logics EL and ELgfp, the set of gene...
Abstract. Tableau calculi are the state-of-the-art for reasoning in description logics (DL). Despite recent improvements, tableau-based reasoners still cannot process certain knowl...
