论文摘要
已经提出了几种类型的依赖关系,用于对存在规则本体的静态分析,有望对计算属性的见解以及一组规则(例如,基于本体的查询答案)的实际使用。不幸的是,这些依赖性很少实施,因此在实践中几乎没有实现它们的潜力。我们专注于两种规则依赖性 - 积极的reliance and Cresents-以及设计和实施优化算法以进行有效的计算。关于多达100,000多个规则的现实本体论实验显示了我们方法的可扩展性,这使我们能够实现一些先前提出的应用程序作为实际案例研究。特别是,我们可以在何种程度上分析基于规则的自下而上的推理方法可以保证在实际本体论中产生无冗余的“精益”知识图(所谓的核心)。
Several types of dependencies have been proposed for the static analysis of existential rule ontologies, promising insights about computational properties and possible practical uses of a given set of rules, e.g., in ontology-based query answering. Unfortunately, these dependencies are rarely implemented, so their potential is hardly realised in practice. We focus on two kinds of rule dependencies -- positive reliances and restraints -- and design and implement optimised algorithms for their efficient computation. Experiments on real-world ontologies of up to more than 100,000 rules show the scalability of our approach, which lets us realise several previously proposed applications as practical case studies. In particular, we can analyse to what extent rule-based bottom-up approaches of reasoning can be guaranteed to yield redundancy-free "lean" knowledge graphs (so-called cores) on practical ontologies.
