BootOX: Practical Mapping of RDBs to OWL 2
Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz,Evgeny Kharlamov,Dmitriy Zheleznyakov,Ian Horrocks,Christoph Pinkel,Martin G. Skjæveland,Evgenij Thorstensen,Jose Mora +7 more
TL;DR: This work presents BootOX, a system that aims at facilitating ontology and mapping development by their automatic extraction i.e., bootstrapping from RDBs, and their experience with the use of BootOX in industrial and research contexts.
The relation between ontologies and XML schemas
TL;DR: This work gives a detailed comparison of OIL, a proposal for expressing ontologies in the Web, with XML Schema, a proposed standard for describing the structure and semantics of Web documents and argues that these two refer to different levels of abstraction.
Book ChapterDOI
MORe: modular combination of OWL reasoners for ontology classification
TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel classification technique that combines an OWL 2 reasoner and an efficient reasoner for a given fragment in such a way that the bulk of the workload is assigned to the latter.
Book ChapterDOI
f-SWRL: a fuzzy extension of SWRL
TL;DR: f-SWRL is proposed, a fuzzy extension to SWRL to include fuzzy assertions and fuzzy rules (such as ‘being healthy is more important than being rich to determine if one is happy').
Journal ArticleDOI
Acyclicity Notions for Existential Rules and Their Application to Query Answering in Ontologies
Bernardo Cuenca Grau,Ian Horrocks,Markus Krötzsch,Clemens Kupke,Despoina Magka,Boris Motik,Zhe Wang +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two new acyclicity notions called model-faithful and model-summarising (MFA and MSA) for answering conjunctive queries over a set of facts extended with existential rules.
