Matching in the Description Logic FL0 with respect to General TBoxes

Abstract: Matching concept descriptions against concept patterns was introduced as a new inference task in Description Logics two decades ago, motivated by applications in the Classic system. Shortly afterwards, a polynomial-time matching algorithm was developed for the DL FL0. However, this algorithm cannot deal with general TBoxes (i.e., finite sets of general concept inclusions). Here we show that matching in FL0 w.r.t. general TBoxes is in ExpTime, which is the best possible complexity for this problem since already… Show more

“…While a negative result for ACUIG would have implied negative results for the two DLs, the methods used to show the positive results for ACUIG are too simple to be useful for FL 0 and EL. For EL, there are some positive results for the case where the TBox satisfies certain cycle-restrictions (Baader et al, 2012), while for FL 0 there are only positive results for matching in the presence of TBoxes (Baader et al, 2018), but none for unification.…”

“…Finally, quite a number of non-standard reasoning tasks in 28 F. Baader et al FL 0 w.r.t. general TBoxes have recently been investigated (Baader et al 2016(Baader et al , 2018(Baader et al , 2018a(Baader et al , 2018b. The algorithms developed for solving these tasks usually depend on sub-procedures that perform subsumption tests or that use the least functional model directly.…”

“…In rule conflict detection, the reasoning mainly covers two aspects: if the rule conflict arises from the hierarchy of attributes, the key is to validate the CIR that interprets the instance sub-model; if the rule conflict arises from RAR transfer, the key is to verify the consistency between the assertion sets of RAR action and instance sub-models. These reasoning problems are comparable to the satisfiability problem and the consistency detection problem in the DDL [19,20] Definition 10. If the two assertions ℱ 1 and ℱ 2 in instance sub-models ℳ 1 and ℳ 2 that transfer RAR results obey ℱ 1 ⊓ ℱ 2 = ∅, then the two instance sub-models are inconsistent, i.e.…”
