arXiv:2606. 24618v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In ontology-based data access (OBDA), multiple data sources are integrated via mappings to an ontology.
arXiv:2604. 26976v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the problem of fitting a description logic (DL) ontology to a given set of positive and negative examples that take the form of an ABox and a Boolean query.
arXiv:2607. 16715v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study Controlled Query Evaluation (CQE), a declarative approach to confidentiality-preserving data access, in the context of Description Logic (DL) ontologies, and for confidentiality policies expressed through Epistemic Dependencies (EDs).
arXiv:2607. 22636v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ontology-mediated query answering is concerned with the problem of answering queries over knowledge bases consisting of a database instance and an ontology.
The emergence of the ISO standard GQL introduces a powerful query language extending first-order logic with controlled recursion, raising the question of its applicability to evaluation of ontology-mediated queries (OMQs). We focus on OMQs consisting of atomic queries over ontologies expressed in Horn-ALCHI, an expressive Description Logic that is not, in general, first-order rewritable.

arXiv:2608. 08122v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper we discuss the foundations behind a novel methodology for the validation of semantic mappings between different data sources based upon different foundation ontologies, where the methodology builds a framework based upon the metaphysical commitments of the ontologies.
arXiv:2003. 05746v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: 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 Description Logics (DLs), reasoning under Rational Closure (RC) is a well-known and widely accepted non-monotonic formalism to handle defeasible knowledge. In this paper, we study the application of RC to the core and horn variants of the DL-Lite family of lightweight description logics.

arXiv:2601. 19644v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decidability or complexity issues about the consistency problem for description logics with concrete domains have already been analysed with tableaux-based or type elimination methods.
arXiv:2606. 14309v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Property graphs may be constrained by schemas that inform both query engines and human users about the shape of valid data, enforcing a contract between data provider and consumer.
arXiv:2608. 06399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Datalog rules are often used to define ontologies over Knowledge Graphs.
