This paper establishes alternative characterizations of very expressive classes of existential rule sets with decidable query entailment.

Pushing the Boundaries of Tractable Multiperspective Reasoning: A Deduction Calculus for Standpoint EL+

1 code implementation27 Apr 2023 Lucía Gómez Álvarez, Sebastian Rudolph, Hannes Strass

Standpoint EL is a multi-modal extension of the popular description logic EL that allows for the integrated representation of domain knowledge relative to diverse standpoints or perspectives.

Decidability of Querying First-Order Theories via Countermodels of Finite Width

no code implementations13 Apr 2023 Thomas Feller, Tim S. Lyon, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja, Sebastian Rudolph

We propose a generic framework for establishing the decidability of a wide range of logical entailment problems (briefly called querying), based on the existence of countermodels that are structurally simple, gauged by certain types of width measures (with treewidth and cliquewidth as popular examples).

Tractable Diversity: Scalable Multiperspective Ontology Management via Standpoint EL

no code implementations25 Feb 2023 Lucía Gómez Álvarez, Sebastian Rudolph, Hannes Strass

The tractability of the lightweight description logic EL has allowed for the construction of large and widely used ontologies that support semantic interoperability.

Finite-Cliquewidth Sets of Existential Rules: Toward a General Criterion for Decidable yet Highly Expressive Querying

no code implementations6 Sep 2022 Thomas Feller, Tim S. Lyon, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja, Sebastian Rudolph

The FCS class properly generalizes the class of finite-expansion sets (FES), and for signatures of arity at most 2, the class of bounded-treewidth sets (BTS).

How to Agree to Disagree: Managing Ontological Perspectives using Standpoint Logic

no code implementations14 Jun 2022 Lucía Gómez Álvarez, Sebastian Rudolph, Hannes Strass

By virtue of this result, existing highly optimised OWL reasoners can be used to provide practical reasoning support for ontology languages extended by standpoint modelling.

AGM Belief Revision, Semantically

no code implementations27 Dec 2021 Faiq Miftakhul Falakh, Sebastian Rudolph, Kai Sauerwald

As our second core contribution, we provide a characterization of all logics for which our result can be strengthened to assignments producing transitive preference relations (as in K&M's original work).

The Price of Selfishness: Conjunctive Query Entailment for ALCSelf is 2ExpTime-hard

no code implementations29 Jun 2021 Bartosz Bednarczyk, Sebastian Rudolph

In logic-based knowledge representation, query answering has essentially replaced mere satisfiability checking as the inferencing problem of primary interest.

A General Katsuno-Mendelzon-Style Characterization of AGM Belief Base Revision for Arbitrary Monotonic Logics

no code implementations29 Apr 2021 Faiq Miftakhul Falakh, Sebastian Rudolph, Kai Sauerwald

The AGM postulates by Alchourr\'{o}n, G\"{a}rdenfors, and Makinson continue to represent a cornerstone in research related to belief change.

Finite Model Theory of the Triguarded Fragment and Related Logics

no code implementations21 Jan 2021 Emanuel Kieroński, Sebastian Rudolph

The Triguarded Fragment (TGF) is among the most expressive decidable fragments of first-order logic, subsuming both its two-variable and guarded fragments without equality.

Although linked open data (LOD) is one knowledge graph, it is the closest realisation (and probably the only one) to a public FAIR Knowledge Graph (KG) of everything.

Satisfiability and Query Answering in Description Logics with Global and Local Cardinality Constraints

no code implementations14 Feb 2020 Franz Baader, Bartosz Bednarczyk, Sebastian Rudolph

On the other hand, the satisfiability problem becomes undecidable if inverse roles are added to the languages.

Trees -- i. e., the type of data structure known under this name -- are central to many aspects of knowledge organization.

Gradual Learning of Matrix-Space Models of Language for Sentiment Analysis

Bound Your Models! How to Make OWL an ASP Modeling Language

no code implementations3 Nov 2015 Sarah Alice Gaggl, Sebastian Rudolph, Lukas Schweizer

To exploit the Web Ontology Language OWL as an answer set programming (ASP) language, we introduce the notion of bounded model semantics, as an intuitive and computationally advantageous alternative to its classical semantics.

Worst-case Optimal Query Answering for Greedy Sets of Existential Rules and Their Subclasses

no code implementations15 Dec 2014 Sebastian Rudolph, Michaël Thomazo, Jean-François Baget, Marie-Laure Mugnier

We provide a generic algorithm for query entailment under gbts, which is worst-case optimal for combined complexity with or without bounded predicate arity, as well as for data complexity and query complexity.

Nominals, Inverses, Counting, and Conjunctive Queries or: Why Infinity is your Friend!

no code implementations16 Jan 2014 Sebastian Rudolph, Birte Glimm

Provided that queries contain only simple roles, our result also shows decidability of entailment of (unions of) conjunctive queries in the logic that underpins OWL 1 DL and we believe that the presented results will pave the way for further progress towards conjunctive query entailment decision procedures for the Description Logics underlying the OWL standards.

We then report on the results of evaluating several state-of-the-art OWL 2 DL reasoners on problems that use combinations of features in a way that the global restrictions are violated.
