Abstract

Description Logics (DLs) are a family of languages designed to represent conceptual knowledge in a formal way as a set of ontological axioms. DLs provide a formal foundation of the ontology language OWL, which is a W3C standardized language to represent information in Web applications. The main computational problem in DLs is finding relevant consequences of the information stored in ontologies, e.g., to answer user queries. Unlike related techniques based on keyword search or machine learning, the notion of a consequence is well-defined using a formal logic-based semantics. This course provides an in-depth description and analysis of the main reasoning and explanation methods for ontologies: tableau procedures and axiom pinpointing algorithms.

\(n!=n\cdot (n-1)\cdot (n-2)\cdots 2\cdot 1\), there are n possibilities to choose the first element, \(n-1\) to choose the second element from the remaining ones, \(n-2\) to choose the third one, etc.

The conjuncts for \(J_{ij}\) in F consist of two negated propositional variables, the conjunct for \(R_1\) and \(R_2\) in F consist of n propositional variables.
