Our aim is to investigate ontology-based data access over temporal data with validity time and ontologies capable of temporal conceptual modelling. To this end, we design a temporal description logic, TQL, that extends the standard ontology…
We study the complexity of evaluating positive equality-free sentences of first-order (FO) logic over a fixed, finite structure B. This may be seen as a natural generalisation of the non-uniform quantified constraint satisfaction problem…
Relational and noSQL storages are developed for the fast processing of the large data sets having a stable structure, while the ontologies are used to rep-resent complex and dynamic sets of information of a limited size. In the in-dustrial…
Optimization is a key task in a number of applications. When the set of feasible solutions under consideration is of combinatorial nature and described in an implicit way as a set of constraints, optimization is typically NP-hard.…
We present team semantics for two of the most important linear and branching time specification languages, Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) and Computation Tree Logic (CTL). With team semantics, LTL is able to express hyperproperties, which have…
The semantic web has received many contributions of researchers as ontologies which, in this context, i.e. within RDF linked data, are formalized conceptualizations that might use different protocols, such as RDFS, OWL DL and OWL FULL. In…
Most approaches for repairing description logic (DL) ontologies aim at changing the axioms as little as possible while solving inconsistencies, incoherences and other types of undesired behaviours. As in Belief Change, these issues are…
With the rapid popularization of big data, the dichotomy between tractable and intractable problems in big data computing has been shifted. Sublinear time, rather than polynomial time, has recently been regarded as the new standard of…
We study linear-time temporal logics interpreted over data words with multiple attributes. We restrict the atomic formulas to equalities of attribute values in successive positions and to repetitions of attribute values in the future or…
We study the computational complexity of model checking and satisfiability problems of polyadic modal logics extended with permutations and Boolean operators on accessibility relations. First, we show that the combined complexity of the…
This paper describes the analysis of a selected testbed of Semantic Web ontologies, by a SPARQL query, which determines those ontologies that can be related to the description logic DL<ForAllPiZero>, introduced in [4] and studied in [9]. We…
Recently data trees and data words have received considerable amount of attention in connection with XML reasoning and system verification. These are trees or words that, in addition to labels from a finite alphabet, carry data values from…
Reverse engineering problems for conjunctive queries (CQs), such as query by example (QBE) or definability, take a set of user examples and convert them into an explanatory CQ. Despite their importance, the complexity of these problems is…
We consider the following fundamental problem: given a database D, Boolean conjunctive query (CQ) q, and fact f in D, decide whether f is relevant to q wrt. D, i.e., does f belong to a minimal subset S of D such that S |= q. Despite being…
We introduce ocLTL, the case of LTL+P modulo {\omega}-categorical theories. We reduce its realizability and synthesis problems into the corresponding problems in propositional LTL+P. The core of the reduction replaces each data subformula…
We argue that in some KR applications, we want to quantify over sets of concepts formally represented by symbols in the vocabulary. We show that this quantification should be distinguished from second-order quantification and…
The heterogeneity of data poses a great challenge when data from different sources is to be merged for one application. Solutions for this are offered, for example, by ontology-based data management (OBDM). A challenge of OBDM is the…
Ontology matching (OM) plays a key role in enabling data interoperability and knowledge sharing, but it remains challenging due to the need for large training datasets and limited vocabulary processing in machine learning approaches.…
The identification of semantic relations between terms within texts is a fundamental task in Natural Language Processing which can support applications requiring a lightweight semantic interpretation model. Currently, semantic relation…
In logic-based knowledge representation, query answering has essentially replaced mere satisfiability checking as the inferencing problem of primary interest. For knowledge bases in the basic description logic ALC, the computational…
