Integrating Semantic Web Reasoning and Answer Set Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
We integrate an expressive class of description logics (DLs) and answer set programming by extending the latter to support inverted predicates and infinite domains, features that are present in most DLs. The extended language, conceptual logic programming (CLP) proves to be a viable alternative for intuitively representing and reasoning nonmonotonically, in a decidable way, with possibly infinite knowledge. Not only can conceptual logic programs (CLPs) simulate finite answer set programming, they are also flexible enough to simulate reasoning in an expressive class of description logics, thus being able to play the role of ontology language, as well as rule language, on the Semantic Web.

متن کاملdlvhex: A System for Integrating Multiple Semantics in an Answer-Set Programming Framework
We briefly report on the development status of dlvhex, a reasoning engine for HEX-programs, which are nonmonotonic logic programs with higher-order atoms and external atoms. Higherorder features are widely acknowledged as useful for various tasks and are essential in the context of meta-reasoning. Furthermore, the possibility to exchange knowledge with external sources in a fully declarative fr...
متن کاملSemantic Web Reasoning with Conceptual Logic Programs
We extend Answer Set Programming with, possibly infinite, open domains. Since this leads, in general, to undecidable reasoning, we restrict the syntax of programs, while carefully guarding useful knowledge representation mechanisms such as negation as failure and inequalities. Reasoning with the resulting Conceptual Logic Programs can be reduced to finite, normal Answer Set Programming, for whi...
متن کاملExtending Conceptual Logic Programs with Arbitrary Rules
We present extended conceptual logic programs (ECLPs), for which reasoning is decidable and, moreover, can be reduced to finite answer set programming. ECLPs are useful to reason with both ontological and rule-based knowledge, which is illustrated by simulating reasoning in an expressive description logic (DL) equipped with DL-safe rules. Furthermore, ECLPs are more expressive in the sense that...
متن کاملRough Description Logic Programs
The Semantic Web is an extension of the current World Wide Web, and aims to help computers to understand and process web information automatically. In recent years, the integration ontologies and rules has become a central topic in the Semantic Web. Therefore, many researchers have focused their study on investigating the combination of answer set programming with description logics for the sem...
