In this paper we define an extension of the description logic SROIQ based on a preferential semantics to introduce a notion of typicality in the language which allows defeasible inclusions to be represented in a knowledge base. We define a polynomial encoding of the resulting language into SROIQ, thus showing that reasoning in the preferential extension of SROIQ has the same complexity as reasoning in SROIQ.

Abstract

In this paper we define an extension of the description logic SROIQ based on a preferential semantics to introduce a notion of typicality in the language which allows defeasible inclusions to be represented in a knowledge base. We define a polynomial encoding of the resulting language into SROIQ, thus showing that reasoning in the preferential extension of SROIQ has the same complexity as reasoning in SROIQ.
