Large language models can consult information that fixed static analyzers cannot, such as documentation, current security advisories, version-specific metadata, and informal API contracts. This makes LLMs a compelling option for program…

Non-normal modal logics, interpreted on neighbourhood models which generalise the usual relational semantics, have found application in several areas, such as epistemic, deontic, and coalitional reasoning. We present here preliminary…

We investigate the problem of learning description logic ontologies from entailments via queries, using epistemic reasoning. We introduce a new learning model consisting of epistemic membership and example queries and show that polynomial…

We study the enumeration of answers to ontology-mediated queries (OMQs) where the ontology is a set of guarded TGDs or formulated in the description logic ELI and the query is a conjunctive query (CQ). In addition to the traditional notion…

The standard reasoning problem, concept satisfiability, in the basic description logic ALC is PSPACE-complete, and it is EXPTIME-complete in the presence of unrestricted axioms. Several fragments of ALC, notably logics in the FL, EL, and…

We study the evaluation of ontology-mediated queries (OMQs) on databases of bounded cliquewidth from the viewpoint of parameterized complexity theory. As the ontology language, we consider the description logics $\mathcal{ALC}$ and…

We analyze the data complexity of ontology-mediated querying where the ontologies are formulated in a description logic (DL) of the ALC family and queries are conjunctive queries, positive existential queries, or acyclic conjunctive…

The quest for acquiring a formal representation of the knowledge of a domain of interest has attracted researchers with various backgrounds into a diverse field called ontology learning. We highlight classical machine learning and data…

We give the first ExpTime (complexity-optimal) tableau decision procedure for checking satisfiability of a knowledge base in the description logic SHOQ, which extends the basic description logic ALC with transitive roles, hierarchies of…

Description Logics (DLs) are a family of knowledge representation formalisms mainly characterised by constructors to build complex concepts and roles from atomic ones. Expressive role constructors are important in many applications, but can…

The complexities of table structures and question logic make table-based question answering (TQA) tasks challenging for Large Language Models (LLMs), often requiring task simplification before solving. This paper reveals that the reasoning…

We present a probabilistic extension of the description logic $\mathcal{ALC}$ for reasoning about statistical knowledge. We consider conditional statements over proportions of the domain and are interested in the probabilistic-logical…

We investigate the problem whether two ALC knowledge bases are indistinguishable by queries over a given vocabulary. We give model-theoretic criteria in terms of (partial) homomorphisms and products and prove that this problem is…

We introduce labelled sequent calculi for the basic normal non-distributive modal logic L and 31 of its axiomatic extensions, where the labels are atomic formulas of a first order language which is interpreted on the canonical extensions of…

This paper describes a technique for inferring temporal-logic properties for sets of finite data streams. Such data streams arise in many domains, including server logs, program testing, and financial and marketing data; temporal-logic…

Refutation calculi are formal systems developed to derive the invalid formulas of a given logic. While the notion of refutation calculi has played a key role in the development of tableaux calculi, a refutation approach to display calculi…

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…

In ontology-mediated querying, description logic (DL) ontologies are used to enrich incomplete data with domain knowledge which results in more complete answers to queries. However, the evaluation of ontology-mediated queries (OMQs) over…
