A Perfect Match for Reasoning, Explanation, and Reason Maintenance: OWL 2 RL and Semantic Wikis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reasoning in wikis has focused so far mostly on expressiveness and tractability and neglected related issues of updates and explanation. In this demo, we show reasoning, explanation, and incremental updates in the KiWi wiki and argue that it is a perfect match for OWL 2 RL reasoning. Explanation nicely complements the “work-in-progress” focus of wikis by explaining how which information was derived and thus helps users to easily discover and remove sources of inconsistencies. Incremental updates are necessary to minimize reasoning times in a frequently changing wiki environment.

WSML2Reasoner - A Comprehensive Reasoning Framework for the Semantic Web
The amount of data on the Internet is rapidly growing. Formal languages are used to annotate such data in order to make it machine-understandable; i.e., allow machines to reason about it, to check consistency, to answer queries, or to infer new facts. Essential for this are formalisms that allow for tractable and efficient reasoning algorithms. Particular care is demanded in efficiently respond...
متن کاملPR-OWL 2 RL - A Language for Scalable Uncertainty Reasoning on the Semantic Web information
Probabilistic OWL (PR-OWL) improves the Web Ontology Language (OWL) with the ability to treat uncertainty using Multi-Entity Bayesian Networks (MEBN). PR-OWL 2 presents a better integration with OWL and its underlying logic, allowing the creation of ontologies with probabilistic and deterministic parts. However, there are scalability problems since PR-OWL 2 is built upon OWL 2 DL which is a ver...
متن کاملReason Maintenance - State of the Art
This paper describes state of the art in reason maintenance with a focus on its future usage in the KiWi project. To give a bigger picture of the field, it also mentions closely related issues such as non-monotonic logic and paraconsistency. The paper is organized as follows: first, two motivating scenarios referring to semantic wikis are presented which are then used to introduce the different...
متن کاملOptimizing Enterprise-Scale OWL 2 RL Reasoning in a Relational Database System
OWL 2 RL was standardized as a less expressive but scalable subset of OWL 2 that allows a forward-chaining implementation. However, building an enterprise-scale forward-chaining based inference engine that can 1) take advantage of modern multi-core computer architectures, and 2) efficiently update inference for additions remains a challenge. In this paper, we present an OWL 2 RL inference engin...
متن کاملDLEJena: A practical forward-chaining OWL 2 RL reasoner combining Jena and Pellet
This paper describes DLEJena, a practical reasoner for the OWL 2 RL profile that combines the forward-chaining rule engine of Jena and the Pellet DL reasoner. This combination is based on rule templates, instantiating at run-time a set of ABox OWL 2 RL/RDF Jena rules dedicated to a particular TBox that is handled by Pellet. The goal of DLEJena is to handle efficiently, through instantiated rule...
