Mitigating the energy use in buildings, together with satisfaction of comfort requirements are the main objectives of efficient building control systems.

An efficient solver for ASP(Q)

1 code implementation17 May 2023 Wolfgang Faber, Giuseppe Mazzotta, Francesco Ricca

In this paper, we present a new implementation that builds on the ideas of qasp and features both a more efficient encoding procedure and new optimized encodings of ASP(Q) programs in QBF.

Neuro-Symbolic AI for Compliance Checking of Electrical Control Panels

no code implementations17 May 2023 Vito Barbara, Massimo Guarascio, Nicola Leone, Giuseppe Manco, Alessandro Quarta, Francesco Ricca, Ettore Ritacco

In particular, assessing the compliance of a product with the relative schematic is a time-consuming and prone-to-error process.

Reducing the impact of out of vocabulary words in the translation of natural language questions into SPARQL queries

no code implementations4 Nov 2021 Manuel A. Borroto Santana, Francesco Ricca, Bernardo Cuteri

Accessing the large volumes of information available in public knowledge bases might be complicated for those users unfamiliar with the SPARQL query language.

ASP-Core-2 Input Language Format

1 code implementation11 Nov 2019 Francesco Calimeri, Wolfgang Faber, Martin Gebser, Giovambattista Ianni, Roland Kaminski, Thomas Krennwallner, Nicola Leone, Marco Maratea, Francesco Ricca, Torsten Schaub

Standardization of solver input languages has been a main driver for the growth of several areas within knowledge representation and reasoning, fostering the exploitation in actual applications.

Partial Compilation of ASP Programs

no code implementations24 Jul 2019 Bernardo Cuteri, Carmine Dodaro, Francesco Ricca, Peter Schüller

In this paper, we propose an extended architecture for ASP systems, in which parts of the input program are compiled into an ad-hoc evaluation algorithm (i. e., we obtain a specific binary for a given program), and might not be subject to the grounding step.

Beyond NP: Quantifying over Answer Sets

no code implementations22 Jul 2019 Giovanni Amendola, Francesco Ricca, Mirek Truszczynski

Arguably, ASP(Q) allows one to model problems in the Polynomial Hierarchy in a direct way, providing an elegant expansion of ASP beyond the class NP.

Paracoherent Answer Set Semantics meets Argumentation Frameworks

no code implementations22 Jul 2019 Giovanni Amendola, Francesco Ricca

In particular, great attention has been given to the well-known stable extensions of an AF, that are closely related to the answer sets of a logic program.

no code implementations22 Jul 2019 Giovanni Amendola, Carmine Dodaro, Francesco Ricca

Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a well-established formalism for logic programming.

The Seventh Answer Set Programming Competition: Design and Results

no code implementations19 Apr 2019 Martin Gebser, Marco Maratea, Francesco Ricca

Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a prominent knowledge representation language with roots in logic programming and non-monotonic reasoning.

The External Interface for Extending WASP

no code implementations5 Nov 2018 Carmine Dodaro, Francesco Ricca

Moreover, we review the applications of the interface witnessing it can be successfully used to extend WASP for solving effectively hard instances of both real-world and synthetic problems.

1 code implementation2 Aug 2016 Carmine Dodaro, Philip Gasteiger, Nicola Leone, Benjamin Musitsch, Francesco Ricca, Kostyantyn Shchekotykhin

In this paper the combination of ASP and domain-specific heuristics is studied with the goal of effectively solving real-world problem instances of PUP and CCP.

Taming Primary Key Violations to Query Large Inconsistent Data

no code implementations22 Jul 2015 Marco Manna, Francesco Ricca, Giorgio Terracina

Consistent query answering over a database that violates primary key constraints is a classical hard problem in database research that has been traditionally dealt with logic programming.

Anytime Computation of Cautious Consequences in Answer Set Programming

no code implementations14 May 2014 Mario Alviano, Carmine Dodaro, Francesco Ricca

Query answering in Answer Set Programming (ASP) is usually solved by computing (a subset of) the cautious consequences of a logic program.

A Multi-Engine Approach to Answer Set Programming

no code implementations20 Jun 2013 Marco Maratea, Luca Pulina, Francesco Ricca

Then, we apply classification methods that, given the features of the instances in a {\sl training} set and the solvers' performance on these instances, inductively learn algorithm selection strategies to be applied to a {\sl test} set.
