Native Provenance Computation for Federated and Non-Federated SPARQL Queries

Authors: Zubaria Asma, Daniel Hernández, Luis Galárraga, Giorgos Flouris, Irini Fundulaki, and Katja Hose

Published in: TGDK, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2026). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 4, Issue 1


Abstract
The popularity of knowledge graphs (KGs) owes credit to their flexible data model, which is suitable for data integration from multiple sources. Several KG-based applications, such as trust assessment, view maintenance, or data valuation on dynamic data, rely on the ability to compute provenance explanations for query results. This need becomes more urgent in federated query processing systems, which allow the online consumption of heterogeneous and decentralized Web data. However, the problem of computing and interacting with provenance has received little attention, especially in the federated setting. On those grounds, this paper introduces the NPCS (Native Provenance Computation for SPARQL) approach, and its federated variant Fed-NPCS, that compute provenance for SPARQL query results. Both approaches build upon spm-semirings to annotate the results of monotonic and non-monotonic SPARQL queries with their provenance. Due to their reliance on query rewriting techniques, the approaches are directly applicable to already deployed SPARQL engines and federations using different reification schemes, including RDF-star. Our experimental evaluation shows that our novel query rewriting approach brings significant run-time improvements w.r.t. the state-of-the-art across both centralized and federated settings. In centralized settings, our tests on two popular SPARQL engines (GraphDB and Stardog) reveal substantial runtime gains over existing query rewriting solutions, enabling scalability to RDF graphs with billions of triples. In federated settings, our experiments on the FedShop benchmark with GraphDB show the viability of Fed-NPCS for federations with up to 200 sources.

Use Case
LLM-Supported Manufacturing Mapping Generation

Authors: Wilma Johanna Schmidt, Irlan Grangel-González, Adrian Paschke, and Evgeny Kharlamov

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 3 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 3


Abstract
In large manufacturing companies, such as Bosch, that operate thousands of production lines with each comprising up to dozens of production machines and other equipment, even simple inventory questions such as of location and quantities of a particular equipment type require non-trivial solutions. Addressing these questions requires to integrate multiple heterogeneous data sets which is time consuming and error prone and demands domain as well as knowledge experts. Knowledge graphs (KGs) are practical for consolidating inventory data by bringing it into the same format and linking inventory items. However, the KG creation and maintenance itself pose challenges as mappings are needed to connect data sets and ontologies. In this work, we address these challenges by exploring LLM-supported and context-enhanced generation of both YARRRML and RML mappings. Facing large ontologies in the manufacturing domain and token limitations in LLM prompts, we further evaluate ontology reduction methods in our approach. We evaluate our approach both quantitatively against reference mappings created manually by experts and, for YARRRML, also qualitatively with expert feedback. This work extends the exploration of the challenges with LLM-supported and context-enhanced mapping generation YARRRML [Schmidt et al., 2025] by comprehensive analyses on RML mappings and an ontology reduction evaluation. We further publish the source code of this work. Our work provides a valuable support when creating manufacturing mappings and supports data and schema updates.

Inconsistency-Tolerant Semantics Based on (Preferred) Repairs (Invited Paper)

Authors: Camille Bourgaux

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 138, Joint Proceedings of the 20th and 21st Reasoning Web Summer Schools (RW 2024 & RW 2025)


Abstract
Real-world datasets are plagued by data quality issues which may render the data inconsistent w.r.t. a set of constraints, be they given by database integrity constraints or ontologies. A prominent way to handle such inconsistent data is to use inconsistency-tolerant semantics to obtain meaningful answers to queries. Most of these semantics are based on some notion of repairs, which represent ways of restoring the data consistency. The most basic kind of repairs is that of subset repairs, which are maximal consistent subsets of the dataset. However, in many scenarios, one can define preferred repairs based on some preference information. These lecture notes present inconsistency-tolerant semantics, focusing on the repair-based ones, then review different kinds of preferred repairs that have been considered in the literature. We present in particular the relationships between different kinds of preferred repairs and other notions related to inconsistency handling, the computational complexity of reasoning with (preferred) repairs, and some implementations.

Explaining Reasoning Results for Description Logic Ontologies (Invited Paper)

Authors: Patrick Koopmann

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 138, Joint Proceedings of the 20th and 21st Reasoning Web Summer Schools (RW 2024 & RW 2025)


Abstract
The Web Ontology Language (OWL), grounded in description logics, enables reasoning systems to infer implicit knowledge in a transparent manner. However, the expressivity of description logics and the complexity of large ontologies often results in reasoning outcomes that are hard to understand without additional tool support. Explanations of these outcomes are essential for users to understand ontology content, communicate its structure and behavior effectively, and debug undesired or missing inferences. This chapter provides an overview of the central explanation techniques that have been developed for explaining reasoning with description logic ontologies. Here, we consider both explanations for positive entailments (explaining why something can be deduced), as well as negative entailments (why something cannot be deduced). More specifically, we discuss justifications, proofs and interpolation as a means to explain positive entailments, and abduction for explaining negative entailments, where we also have a closer look at practical algorithms as well as practical and theoretical challenges.

Reasoning About Time in DatalogMTL: Course Notes (Invited Paper)

Authors: Przemysław Andrzej Wałęga

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 138, Joint Proceedings of the 20th and 21st Reasoning Web Summer Schools (RW 2024 & RW 2025)


Abstract
Many real-world applications, such as those in healthcare, finance, and logistics, require reasoning over temporal data. Standard rule-based languages like Datalog, however, lack explicit mechanisms for handling time and temporal dependencies. In this chapter, we discussDatalogMTL, an extension of Datalog with operators frommetric temporal logic that allow to express complex temporal properties. We focus on reasoning algorithms for DatalogMTL, discussing bothmaterialisation, based on fixpoint applications of the immediate consequence operator, and anovel saturation-based extensionthat detects and halts infinite derivations, ensuring both completeness and termination of reasoning.

Temporal GraphQL: A Tree Grammar Approach

Authors: Curtis E. Dyreson and Bishal Sarkar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 355, 32nd International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2025)


Abstract
This paper presents a novel system, called Temporal GraphQL, for supporting temporal data in web services. A temporal web service is a service that provides a temporal view of data, that is, a view of the current data as well as past or future states of the data. Capturing the history of the data is important in data forensics, data auditing, and subscriptions, where an application continuously reads data. GraphQL is a technology for improving the development and management of web services. Originally developed by Facebook and widely used in industry, GraphQL is a query language for web services. This paper introduces Temporal GraphQL. We show how to use tree grammars to model GraphQL schemas, data, and queries, and propose temporal tree grammars to model Temporal GraphQL. We extend GraphQL with temporal snapshot, slice, and delta operators. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work on Temporal GraphQL and temporal tree grammars.

The Temporal Vadalog System (Short Paper)

Authors: Luigi Bellomarini, Livia Blasi, Markus Nissl, and Emanuel Sallinger

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 355, 32nd International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2025)


Abstract
The recent resurgence of the Datalog language in the Knowledge Representation and Reasoning community has paved the way for a very promising proposal for temporal extension. DatalogMTL (Datalog with Metric Temporal Operators) is a language that offers a good trade-off between computational complexity and expressive power. However, existing implementations are still preliminary or prototypical. In this extended abstract, we give a brief overview of Temporal Vadalog, a system supporting reasoning over DatalogMTL programs built upon an engineered architecture and adopted in production scenarios in the financial setting.

On Deciding the Data Complexity of Answering Linear Monadic Datalog Queries with LTL Operators

Authors: Alessandro Artale, Anton Gnatenko, Vladislav Ryzhikov, and Michael Zakharyaschev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)


Abstract
Our concern is the data complexity of answering linear monadic datalog queries whose atoms in the rule bodies can be prefixed by operators of linear temporal logic LTL. We first observe that, for data complexity, answering any connected query with operators ○/○- (at the next/previous moment) is either in AC⁰, or in ACC⁰\AC⁰, or NC¹-complete, or L-hard and in NL. Then we show that the problem of deciding L-hardness of answering such queries is PSpace-complete, while checking membership in the classes AC⁰ and ACC⁰ as well as NC¹-completeness can be done in ExpSpace. Finally, we prove that membership in AC⁰ or in ACC⁰, NC¹-completeness, and L-hardness are undecidable for queries with operators ◇/◇- (sometime in the future/past) provided that NC¹ ≠ NL and L ≠ NL.

Resource Paper
The Reasonable Ontology Templates Framework

Authors: Martin Georg Skjæveland and Leif Harald Karlsen

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2


Abstract
Reasonable Ontology Templates (OTTR) is a templating language for representing and instantiating patterns. It is based on simple and generic, but powerful, mechanisms such as recursive macro expansion, term substitution and type systems, and is designed particularly for building and maintaining RDF knowledge graphs and OWL ontologies. In this resource paper, we present the formal specifications that define the OTTR framework. This includes the fundamentals of the OTTR language and the adaptions to make it fit with standard semantic web languages, and two serialization formats developed for semantic web practitioners. We also present the OTTR framework’s support for documenting, publishing and managing template libraries, and for tools for practical bulk instantiation of templates from tabular data and queryable data sources. The functionality of the OTTR framework is available for use through Lutra, an open-source reference implementation, and other independent implementations. We report on the use and impact of OTTR by presenting selected industrial use cases. Finally, we reflect on some design considerations of the language and framework and present ideas for future work.

Abstract
In the last decade, there has been a growing interest in applying AI technologies to implement complex data analytics over data streams. To this end, researchers in various fields have been organising a yearly event called the "Stream Reasoning Workshop" to share perspectives, challenges, and experiences around this topic. In this paper, the previous organisers of the workshops and other community members provide a summary of the main research results that have been discussed during the first six editions of the event. These results can be categorised into four main research areas: The first is concerned with the technological challenges related to handling large data streams. The second area aims at adapting and extending existing semantic technologies to data streams. The third and fourth areas focus on how to implement reasoning techniques, either considering deductive or inductive techniques, to extract new and valuable knowledge from the data in the stream. This summary is written not only to provide a crystallisation of the field, but also to point out distinctive traits of the stream reasoning community. Moreover, it also provides a foundation for future research by enumerating a list of use cases and open challenges, to stimulate others to join this exciting research area.

Semantic Web: Past, Present, and Future

Authors: Ansgar Scherp, Gerd Groener, Petr Škoda, Katja Hose, and Maria-Esther Vidal

Abstract
Ever since the vision was formulated, the Semantic Web has inspired many generations of innovations. Semantic technologies have been used to share vast amounts of information on the Web, enhance them with semantics to give them meaning, and enable inference and reasoning on them. Throughout the years, semantic technologies, and in particular knowledge graphs, have been used in search engines, data integration, enterprise settings, and machine learning. In this paper, we recap the classical concepts and foundations of the Semantic Web as well as modern and recent concepts and applications, building upon these foundations. The classical topics we cover include knowledge representation, creating and validating knowledge on the Web, reasoning and linking, and distributed querying. We enhance this classical view of the so-called "Semantic Web Layer Cake" with an update of recent concepts that include provenance, security and trust, as well as a discussion of practical impacts from industry-led contributions. We conclude with an outlook on the future directions of the Semantic Web. This is a living document.

Logics for Conceptual Data Modelling: A Review

Authors: Pablo R. Fillottrani and C. Maria Keet

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 1 (2024): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge - Part 2. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 1


Abstract
Information modelling for databases and object-oriented information systems avails of conceptual data modelling languages such as EER and UML Class Diagrams. Many attempts exist to add logical rigour to them, for various reasons and with disparate strengths. In this paper we aim to provide a structured overview of the many efforts. We focus on aims, approaches to the formalisation, including key dimensions of choice points, popular logics used, and the main relevant reasoning services. We close with current challenges and research directions.

Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) have taken Knowledge Representation - and the world - by storm. This inflection point marks a shift from explicit knowledge representation to a renewed focus on the hybrid representation of both explicit knowledge and parametric knowledge. In this position paper, we will discuss some of the common debate points within the community on LLMs (parametric knowledge) and Knowledge Graphs (explicit knowledge) and speculate on opportunities and visions that the renewed focus brings, as well as related research topics and challenges.

Two-Dimensional Rule Language for Querying Sensor Log Data: A Framework and Use Cases

Authors: Sebastian Brandt, Diego Calvanese, Elem Güzel Kalaycı, Roman Kontchakov, Benjamin Mörzinger, Vladislav Ryzhikov, Guohui Xiao, and Michael Zakharyaschev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 147, 26th International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2019)


Abstract
Motivated by two industrial use cases that involve detecting events of interest in (asynchronous) time series from sensors in manufacturing rigs and gas turbines, we design an expressive rule language DslD equipped with interval aggregate functions (such as weighted average over a time interval), Allen’s interval relations and various metric constructs. We demonstrate how to model events in the uses cases in terms of DslD programs. We show that answering DslD queries in our use cases can be reduced to evaluating SQL queries. Our experiments with the use cases, carried out on the Apache Spark system, show that such SQL queries scale well on large real-world datasets.

Ontology-Mediated Query Answering over Temporal Data: A Survey (Invited Talk)

Authors: Alessandro Artale, Roman Kontchakov, Alisa Kovtunova, Vladislav Ryzhikov, Frank Wolter, and Michael Zakharyaschev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 90, 24th International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2017)


Abstract
We discuss the use of various temporal knowledge representation formalisms for ontology-mediated query answering over temporal data. In particular, we analyse ontology and query languages based on the linear temporal logic LTL, the multi-dimensional Halpern-Shoham interval temporal logic HS_n, as well as the metric temporal logic MTL. Our main focus is on the data complexity of answering temporal ontology-mediated queries and their rewritability into standard first-order and datalog queries.
