Approximate Assertional Reasoning Over Expressive Ontologies
Tuvshintur Tserendorj · Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) · 2010
In this thesis, approximate reasoning methods for scalable assertional reasoning are provided whose computational properties can be established in a well-understood way, namely in terms of soundness and completeness, and whose quality can be analyzed in terms of statistical measurements, namely recall and precision. The basic idea of these approximate reasoning methods is to speed up reasoning by trading off the quality of reasoning results against increased speed.
