Abstract

The central question addressed in this paper is to determine how to represent uncertain knowledges present in many applications in geographic domain. The resulting proposition is a possibilistic extension of the very expressive Description Logic \(\mathcal {SROIQ(D)}\), the underlying logic of the OWL2, called \(\pi \)-\(\mathcal {SROIQ(D)}\). It is a solution for handling uncertainty and for dealing with inconsistency in geographic applications. Both syntax and semantics of the proposed description logic are considered. In addition we provide a tableau algorithm for reasoning with the possibilistic DL \(\pi \)-\(\mathcal {SROIQ(D)}\).

1
S used for ALC extended with transitive roles (R+), R for limited complex role inclusion axioms, role disjointness, O for nominals, I for inverse roles, Q for qualified number restrictions and (D) for data values or data types.
 
2
A \(\pi \)TBox consists of a finite set of possibilistic GCIs (General Concept Inclusions) and a finite set of possibilistic role axioms RIAs (Role Inclusion Axioms). A \(\pi \)ABox is a finite set of possibilsitic concepts and role assertions axioms expressed in the following forms: (C(a), \(\alpha )\), (R(ab), \( \alpha )\) or \((\lnot R(a,b)\), \(\alpha )\), T((av), \(\alpha )\) or \(\lnot T((a,v)\)\(\alpha )\).
 
3
Blocked Node: A node x is blocked iff it is not a root node and it is either directly or indirectly blocked or if there is an ancestor z of x such that z is blocked. If a node x is blocked and none of its ancestors is blocked, then we say that x is directly blocked.
 
4
Merging a node y into a node x, means that we add L(y) to L(x), all edges leading to y so that they lead to x and add all the edges leading from y to nominal nodes (contain a nominal) so that they lead from x to the same nominal nodes; then if y is not a root node we remove y (and blockable sub-trees below y) from the completion-graph, otherwise we set L(y) to the empty set and assert that x = y.
