SROIQ Syntax Approximation by Using Nominal Schemas

Cong Wang, David Carral, Pascal Hitzler · 2013

Abstract. Nominal schemas is a recently introduced extension of description logics which makes it possible to express rules which generalize DL-safe ones. A tractable description logic, ELROVn, has been identified. This leads us to the question: can we improve approximate reasoning results by employing nominal schemas? In this paper, we investigate how to approximately cast SROIQ into ELROVn. Using a datalog-based tractable algorithm, a preliminary evaluation shows that our approach can indeed do approximate SROIQ-reasoning with a high recall. 1
