We explore the use of answer set programming (ASP) and its extension with quantifiers, ASP(Q), for inconsistency-tolerant querying of prioritized data, where a priority relation between conflicting facts is exploited to define three notions…

In this paper, we explore the issue of inconsistency handling over prioritized knowledge bases (KBs), which consist of an ontology, a set of facts, and a priority relation between conflicting facts. In the database setting, a closely…

In its traditional definition, a repair of an inconsistent database is a consistent database that differs from the inconsistent one in a "minimal way". Often, repairs are not equally legitimate, as it is desired to prefer one over another;…

This paper revisits the problem of repairing and querying inconsistent databases equipped with universal constraints. We adopt symmetric difference repairs, in which both deletions and additions of facts can be used to restore consistency,…

Repair-based semantics have been extensively studied as a means of obtaining meaningful answers to queries posed over inconsistent knowledge bases (KBs). While several works have considered how to exploit a priority relation between facts…

Preferences are a pivotal component in practical reasoning, especially in tasks that involve decision-making over different options or courses of action that could be pursued. In this work, we focus on repairing and querying inconsistent…

Repairing inconsistent knowledge bases is a task that has been assessed, with great advances over several decades, from within the knowledge representation and reasoning and the database theory communities. As information becomes more…

Traditional inconsistency-tolerent query answering in ontology-based data access relies on selecting maximal components of an ABox/database which are consistent with the ontology. However, some rules in ontologies might be unreliable if…

A consistent query answer in an inconsistent database is an answer obtained in every (minimal) repair. The repairs are obtained by resolving all conflicts in all possible ways. Often, however, the user is able to provide a preference on how…

We present algorithms based on satisfiability problem (SAT) solving, as well as answer set programming (ASP), for solving the problem of determining inconsistency degrees in propositional knowledge bases. We consider six different…

Classical algorithms for query optimization presuppose the absence of inconsistencies or uncertainties in the database and exploit only valid semantic knowledge provided, e.g., by integrity constraints. Data inconsistency or uncertainty,…

Commonly used proof strategies by automated reasoners organise proof search either by ordering-based saturation or by reducing goals to subgoals. In this paper, we combine these two approaches and advocate a SAT-based method with symmetry…

Model checking is an automatic formal verification technique that is widely used in hardware verification. The state-of-the-art complete model-checking techniques, based on IC3/PDR and its general variant CAR, are based on computing…

The framework of database repairs and consistent answers to queries is a principled approach to managing inconsistent databases. We describe the first system able to compute the consistent answers of general aggregation queries with the…

We study here the impact of priorities on conflict resolution in inconsistent relational databases. We extend the framework of repairs and consistent query answers. We propose a set of postulates that an extended framework should satisfy…

Fundamentally, every static program analyser searches for a proof through a combination of heuristics providing candidate solutions and a candidate validation technique. Essentially, the heuristic reduces a second-order problem to a…

The inconsistency in prioritized knowledge base is because the assertions (ABoxes) come from several sources with different levels of reliability. We introduce the handling of this inconsistency problem to query inconsistent…

We extend answer set semantics to deal with inconsistent programs (containing classical negation), by finding a ``best'' answer set. Within the context of inconsistent programs, it is natural to have a partial order on rules, representing a…

Data inconsistency evaluating and repairing are major concerns in data quality management. As the basic computing task, optimal subset repair is not only applied for cost estimation during the progress of database repairing, but also…

Although syntactic information is beneficial for many NLP tasks, combining it with contextual information between words to solve the coreference resolution problem needs to be further explored. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end parser…
