Dismatching and Local Disunification in EL

Authors: Franz Baader, Stefan Borgwardt, and Barbara Morawska

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)

Abstract
Unification in Description Logics has been introduced as a means to detect redundancies in ontologies. We try to extend the known decidability results for unification in the Description Logic EL to disunification since negative constraints on unifiers can be used to avoid unwanted unifiers. While decidability of the solvability of general EL-disunification problems remains an open problem, we obtain NP-completeness results for two interesting special cases: dismatching problems, where one side of each negative constraint must be ground, and local solvability of disunification problems, where we restrict the attention to solutions that are built from so-called atoms occurring in the input problem. More precisely, we first show that dismatching can be reduced to local disunification, and then provide two complementary NP-algorithms for finding local solutions of (general) disunification problems.

07401 Executive Summary – Deduction and Decision Procedures

Authors: Franz Baader, Byron Cook, Jürgen Giesl, and Robert Nieuwenhuis

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7401, Deduction and Decision Procedures (2007)

Abstract
Formal logic provides a mathematical foundation for many areas of computer science. Significant progress has been made in the challenge of making computers perform non-trivial logical reasoning. be it fully automatic, or in interaction with humans. In the last years it has become more and more evident that theory-specific reasoners, and in particular decision procedures, are extremely important in many applications of such deduction tools. General-purpose reasoning methods such as resolution or paramodulation alone are not efficient enough to handle the needs of real-world applications. % For this reason, the focus of this seminar was on decision procedures, their integration into general-purpose theorem provers, and the application of the integrated tools in computer science.

05431 Executive Summary – Deduction and Applications

Authors: Franz Baader, Peter Baumgartner, Robert Nieuwenhuis, and Andrei Voronkov

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5431, Deduction and Applications (2006)

Abstract
Formal logic provides a mathematical foundation for many areas of computer science. Logical languages are used as specification language within, e.g., program development and verification, hardware design and verification, relational databases, and many subfields of Artificial Intelligence. Automated Deduction is concerned with the design and implementation of algorithms based on logical deduction for solving problems in these areas. The last years have seen considerable improvements concerning both basic automated deduction technology and its (real-world) applications. Accordingly, the goal of the seminar was to bring together researchers from both sides in order to get an overview of the state of the art, and also to get ideas how to advance automated deduction from an application oriented point of view.
