Media Exposition
Tracking a Set of Moving Objects with Minimal Peak Power (Media Exposition)

Authors: Sándor P. Fekete, Malte Hoffmann, Chek-Manh Loi, and Michael Perk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)


Abstract
A common sensing problem is to use a set of stationary tracking locations to monitor a collection of moving devices. Given n objects that need to be tracked, each following its own trajectory, and m stationary traffic control stations, each with a sensing region that can be changed over time; how should we adjust the individual sensor ranges in order to optimize energy consumption? We illustrate how to combine geometric insights with mathematical optimization to find optimal solutions for the min max variant of the problem, which aims at minimizing peak power consumption. Instances with 500 moving objects and 25 stations can be solved in the order of seconds for scenarios that take minutes to play out in the real world, demonstrating real-time capability of our methods.

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.

On the Computational Cost of Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Victor Charpenay, Mansour Zoubeirou A Mayaki, and Antoine Zimmermann

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


Abstract
Over a decade, numerous Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) models have been designed and evaluated on reference datasets, always with increasing performance. In this paper, we re-evaluate these models with respect to their computational efficiency during training, by estimating the computational cost of the procedure expressed in floating-point operations. We design a cost model based on analytical expressions and apply it on a collection of 20 KGE models, representative of the state-of-the-art. We show that dimensionality or parameter efficiency, used in the literature to compare models with each other, are not suitable to evaluate the true cost of models. Through fixed-budget experiments, a novel approach to evaluate KGE models based on cost estimates, we re-assess the relative performance of model families compared to the state-of-the-art. Bilinear models such as ComplEx underperform with a low computational budget while hyperbolic linear models appear to offer no particular benefit compared to simpler Euclidian models, especially the MuRE model. Neural models, such as ConvE or CompGCN, achieve reasonable performance in the literature but their high computational cost appears unnecessary when compared with other models. The trade-off between efficiency and expressivity of both linear and neural models is to be further explored.

Hamiltonicity Parameterized by Mim-Width Is (Indeed) Para-NP-Hard

Authors: Benjamin Bergougnoux and Lars Jaffke

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)


Abstract
We prove that Hamiltonian Path and Hamiltonian Cycle are NP-hard on graphs of linear mim-width 26, even when a linear order of the input graph with mim-width 26 is provided together with input. This fills a gap left by a broken proof of the para-NP-hardness of Hamiltonicity problems parameterized by mim-width.

A Logic Programming Approach to Repairing SHACL Constraint Violations

Authors: Shqiponja Ahmetaj, Robert David, Axel Polleres, and Mantas Šimkus

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


Abstract
The Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) is a recent standard, a W3C recommendation, for validating RDF graphs against shape constraints to be checked on target nodes of a data graph. The standard also describes the notion of validation reports, which detail the results of the validation process. In case of violation of constraints, the validation report should explain the reasons for non-validation, offering guidance on how to identify or fix violations in the data graph. Since the specification left it open to SHACL processors to define such explanations, a recent work proposed the use of explanations in the style of database repairs, where a repair is a set of additions to or deletions from the data graph so that the resulting graph validates against the constraints. In this paper, we study such repairs for non-recursive SHACL, the largest fragment of SHACL that is fully defined in the specification. We propose an algorithm to compute repairs by encoding the explanation problem - using Answer Set Programming (ASP) - into a logic program, where the answer sets contain (minimal) repairs. We then study a scenario where it is not possible to simultaneously repair all the targets, which may be the case due to overall unsatisfiability or conflicting constraints. We introduce a relaxed notion of validation, which allows to validate a (maximal) subset of the targets and adapt the ASP translation to take into account this relaxation. Finally, we add support for repairing constraints which use property paths and equality of paths. Our implementation in clingo is - to the best of our knowledge - the first implementation of a repair program for SHACL.

Sliding Squares in Parallel

Authors: Hugo A. Akitaya, Sándor P. Fekete, Peter Kramer, Saba Molaei, Christian Rieck, Frederick Stock, and Tobias Wallner

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)


Abstract
We consider algorithmic problems motivated by modular robotic reconfiguration in the sliding square model, in which we are given n square-shaped modules in a (labeled or unlabeled) start configuration and need to find a schedule of sliding moves to transform it into a desired goal configuration, maintaining connectivity of the configuration at all times. Recent work has aimed at minimizing the total number of moves, resulting in fully sequential schedules that can perform reconfiguration in 𝒪(n²) moves, or 𝒪(nP) for arrangements of bounding box perimeter size P. We provide first results in the sliding square model that exploit parallel motion, performing reconfiguration in worst-case optimal makespan of 𝒪(P). We also provide tight bounds on the complexity of the problem by showing that even deciding the possibility of reconfiguration within makespan 1 is NP-complete in the unlabeled case. In the labeled variant, we note that deciding the same for makespan 2 is NP-complete, while makespan 1 is straightforward.

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

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
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.

Abstract
Openly available, collaboratively edited Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are key platforms for the collective management of evolving knowledge. The present work aims t o provide an analysis of the obstacles related to investigating and processing specifically this central aspect of evolution in KGs. To this end, we discuss (i) the dimensions of evolution in KGs, (ii) the observability of evolution in existing, open, collaboratively constructed Knowledge Graphs over time, and (iii) possible metrics to analyse this evolution. We provide an overview of relevant state-of-the-art research, ranging from metrics developed for Knowledge Graphs specifically to potential methods from related fields such as network science. Additionally, we discuss technical approaches - and their current limitations - related to storing, analysing and processing large and evolving KGs in terms of handling typical KG downstream tasks.

Making a Network Orchard by Adding Leaves

Authors: Leo van Iersel, Mark Jones, Esther Julien, and Yukihiro Murakami

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 273, 23rd International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2023)


Abstract
Phylogenetic networks are used to represent the evolutionary history of species. Recently, the new class of orchard networks was introduced, which were later shown to be interpretable as trees with additional horizontal arcs. This makes the network class ideal for capturing evolutionary histories that involve horizontal gene transfers. Here, we study the minimum number of additional leaves needed to make a network orchard. We demonstrate that computing this proximity measure for a given network is NP-hard and describe a tight upper bound. We also give an equivalent measure based on vertex labellings to construct a mixed integer linear programming formulation. Our experimental results, which include both real-world and synthetic data, illustrate the efficiency of our implementation.

Reconstructing Phylogenetic Networks via Cherry Picking and Machine Learning

Authors: Giulia Bernardini, Leo van Iersel, Esther Julien, and Leen Stougie

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 242, 22nd International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2022)


Abstract
Combining a set of phylogenetic trees into a single phylogenetic network that explains all of them is a fundamental challenge in evolutionary studies. In this paper, we apply the recently-introduced theoretical framework of cherry picking to design a class of heuristics that are guaranteed to produce a network containing each of the input trees, for practical-size datasets. The main contribution of this paper is the design and training of a machine learning model that captures essential information on the structure of the input trees and guides the algorithms towards better solutions. This is one of the first applications of machine learning to phylogenetic studies, and we show its promise with a proof-of-concept experimental study conducted on both simulated and real data consisting of binary trees with no missing taxa.
