A database D may be inconsistent wrt a given set IC of integrity constraints. Consistent Query Answering (CQA) is the problem of computing from D the answers to a query that are consistent wrt IC . Consistent answers are invariant under all…

We discover a connection between finding subset-maximal repairs for sets of functional and inclusion dependencies, and computing extensions within argumentation frameworks (AFs). We study the complexity of the existence of a repair and…

For several reasons a database may not satisfy a given set of integrity constraints(ICs), but most likely most of the information in it is still consistent with those ICs; and could be retrieved when queries are answered. Consistent answers…

We propose a generic numerical measure of inconsistency of a database with respect to a set of integrity constraints. It is based on an abstract repair semantics. A particular inconsistency measure associated to cardinality-repairs is…
