Defeasible Reasoning in SROEL: from Rational Entailment to Rational Closure
In this work we study a rational extension of the low complexity
description logic SROEL, which underlies the OWL EL ontology language. The
extension involves a typicality operator T, whose semantics is based on Lehmann
and Magidor's ranked models and allows for the definition of defeasible
inclusions. We consider both rational entailment and minimal entailment. We
show that deciding instance checking under minimal entailment is in general
-hard, while, under rational entailment, instance checking can be
computed in polynomial time. We develop a Datalog calculus for instance
checking under rational entailment and exploit it, with stratified negation,
for computing the rational closure of simple KBs in polynomial time.Comment: Accepted for publication on Fundamenta Informatica
