Formal Ontology and Extensions of Order-Sorted Logic
This paper presents several extensions of order-sorted logic based on the notion of property classification in formal ontology. The refined order-sorted language contains types (as rigid sorts), anti-rigid sorts, and unary predicates in order to distinctly express the following properties: substantial sorts, nonsubstantial sorts, and non-sortal properties. For many separated knowledge bases con...
متن کامل?Logic and Formal Ontology: Is the Final Formal Ontology Possible
Musa Akrami AbstractMany philosophers and logicians have contemplated the relationship between ontology and logic. The author of this paper, working within a Bolzanoan-Husserlian tradition of studying both ontology and logic, considers ontology as the science of the most general features of beings and the most general relations among them. He considers logic as the science concernin...
متن کاملCombining Order-Sorted Logic Programming with Formal Ontology
In formal ontology, entity types and relationships are philosophically defined, and the properties of objects are classified on the basis of sortality, rigidity, and identity (called property classification). Sorts and unary predicates are semantically identical in order-sorted logic, but they are respectively sortal and non-sortal (i.e., they are distinguished) in a formal ontology. This ontol...
متن کاملAn Order-Sorted Quantified Modal Logic for Meta-ontology
The notions of meta-ontology enhance the ability to process knowledge in information systems; in particular, ontological property classification deals with the kinds of properties in taxonomic knowledge based on a philosophical analysis. The goal of this paper is to devise a reasoning mechanism to check the ontological and logical consistency of knowledge bases, which is important for reasoning...
متن کاملDescription Logic and Order-sorted Logic
I have been studying the following work on description logic, which is closely related to my main work on extensions of order-sorted logic and logic programming [4, 3, 2]. Title: Negation in Description Logics: Contraries, Contradictories and Subcontraries (under submission) Abstract: We propose an alternative description logic ALC∼ with classical negation and strong negation. In particular, we...
