A Fuzzy RDF Semantics to Represent Trust Metadata
نویسنده
چکیده
The need for fuzzy knowledge bases arises from many application fields, such as trust management. To represent fuzzy data, a syntactic and semantic extension of RDF is proposed. The syntax adds to each triple a truth value. The semantic for Fuzzy RDF and Fuzzy RDF Schema allows to derive truth values for derived statements as well. Fuzzy RDF/RDFS does not aim to become a standard extension to plain RDF/RDFS. It is conceived to be used only inside the applications. Fuzzy data can be transferred as standard RDF using reification. The extra semantic can be brought back using rules.

A Fuzzy Semantics for Semantic Web Languages
Although the model-theoretic semantics of the languages used in the Semantic Web are crisps, the need arise to extend them to represent fuzzy data, in the same way fuzzy logic extend first-orderlogic. We will define a fuzzy counterpart of the RDF Model Theory for RDF (section 2) and RDF Schema (section 3). Last, we show how to implement the extended semantics in inference rules (section 4).
متن کاملTrust Models for RDF Data: Semantics and Complexity
Due to the openness and decentralization of the Web, mechanisms to represent and reason about the reliability of RDF data become essential. This paper embarks on a formal analysis of RDF data enriched with trust information by focusing on the characterization of its model-theoretic semantics and on the study of relevant reasoning problems. The impact of trust values on the computational complex...
متن کاملA Minimal Deductive System for General Fuzzy RDF
It is well-known that crisp RDF is not suitable to represent vague information. Fuzzy RDF variants are emerging to overcome this limitations. In this work we provide, under a very general semantics, a deductive system for a salient fragment of fuzzy RDF. We then also show how we may compute the top-k answers of the union of conjunctive queries in which answers may be scored by means of a scorin...
متن کاملInteractive Exploration of Fuzzy RDF Knowledge Bases
In several domains we have objects whose descriptions are accompanied by a degree expressing their strength. Such degrees can have various application specific semantics, such as relevance, precision, certainty, trust, etc. In this paper we consider Fuzzy RDF as the representation framework for such “weighted” descriptions and associations, and we propose a novel model for browsing and explorin...
