Real-valued logics underlie an increasing number of neuro-symbolic approaches, though typically their logical inference capabilities are characterized only qualitatively. We provide foundations for establishing the correctness and power 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…

Ontologies are one of the richest sources of knowledge. Real-world ontologies often contain thousands of axioms and are often human-made. Hence, they may contain inconsistency and incomplete information which may impair classical reasoners…
Possibilistic logic is a well-known graded logic of uncertainty suitable to reason under incomplete information and partially inconsistent knowledge, which is built upon classical first order logic. There exists for Possibilistic logic a…
Analytic proof calculi are introduced for box and diamond fragments of basic modal fuzzy logics that combine the Kripke semantics of modal logic K with the many-valued semantics of G\"odel logic. The calculi are used to establish…
Recently there have been some unexpected results concerning Fuzzy Description Logics (FDLs) with General Concept Inclusions (GCIs). They show that, unlike the classical case, the DL ALC with GCIs does not have the finite model property…
Neural-symbolic computing aims at integrating robust neural learning and sound symbolic reasoning into a single framework, so as to leverage the complementary strengths of both of these, seemingly unrelated (maybe even contradictory) AI…
In the last 20 years many proposals have been made to incorporate non-monotonic reasoning into description logics, ranging from approaches based on default logic and circumscription to those based on preferential semantics. In particular,…
One of the main challenges in the area of Neuro-Symbolic AI is to perform logical reasoning in the presence of both neural and symbolic data. This requires combining heterogeneous data sources such as knowledge graphs, neural model…
The paper introduces a knowledge representation language that combines the event calculus with description logic in a logic programming framework. The purpose is to provide the user with an expressive language for modelling and analysing…
Differentiable logics are a family of quantitative logics originated in the machine learning literature. Because of their origin, differentiable logics often come equipped with analytic properties that guarantee that they are…
On the Semantic Web, metadata and ontologies are used to enable computers to read data. The Web Ontology Language (OWL) has been proposed as a standard ontological language, and various inference systems for this language have been studied.…
This thesis studies the model theoretic properties of the Description Logics (DLs) ALC, ALCI, ALCQ, as well as ALCO, ALCQO, ALCQIO and EL. TBoxes of ALC, ALCI and ALCQ are characterised as fragments of FO which are invariant under global…
Description Logics (DLs) are appropriate, widely used, logics for managing structured knowledge. They allow reasoning about individuals and concepts, i.e. set of individuals with common properties. Typically, DLs are limited to dealing with…
We characterize the expressive power of description logic (DL) TBoxes, both for expressive DLs such as ALC and ALCQIO and lightweight DLs such as DL-Lite and EL. Our characterizations are relative to first-order logic, based on a wide range…
Fuzzy Epistemic Logic is an important formalism for approximate reasoning. It extends the well known basic propositional logic BL, introduced by H\'ajek, by offering the ability to reason about possibility and necessity of fuzzy…
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…
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…
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…
