Temporal Modelling in Cultural Heritage Knowledge Graphs: Use Cases, Requirements, Evaluation, and Decision Support

Authors: Oleksandra Bruns, Jörg Waitelonis, Jeff Z. Pan, and Harald Sack

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


Abstract
Our culture, history and world are in constant motion, continuously shaped by the flow of time, evolving narratives, and shifting relationships. Capturing this temporal complexity within cultural heritage (CH) knowledge graphs is essential for preserving the dynamic nature of human heritage. However, standard RDF predicates fail to effectively model the temporal aspects of cultural data, such as changing facts, evolving relationships, and temporal concepts. Over the past two decades, a variety of RDF-based approaches have been proposed to address this limitation, yet guidance is missing on which method best suits specific CH contexts. This paper presents a systematic evaluation of temporal RDF modelling approaches from a CH perspective. Based on an analysis of real-world CH use cases, core temporal requirements are identified that reflect both modelling expressivity and practical concerns. Six prominent approaches - RDF*, tRDF, Named Graphs, Singleton Property, N-ary Relations, and 4D Fluents - are assessed across these requirements. Our findings reveal that no single solution fits all scenarios, but suitable approaches can be selected based on project-specific priorities. To support practitioners, a decision-support tool is introduced to guide them in selecting the most suitable extension for their specific needs. This work provides practical guidance for CH modelling and contributes to the broader development of temporally aware Linked Data.

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.

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 Ensemble Logic for Integrative Representation of the Entirety of Clinical Trials

Authors: Xiaojin Li, Yan Huang, Rashmie Abeysinghe, Zenan Sun, Hongyu Chen, Pengze Li, Xing He, Shiqiang Tao, Cui Tao, Jiang Bian, Licong Cui, and Guo-Qiang Zhang

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


Abstract
Clinical trials are typically specified with protocols that define eligibility criteria, treatment regimens, follow-up schedules, and outcome assessments. Temporality is a hallmark of all clinical trials, reflected within and across trial components, with complex dependencies unfolding across multiple time points. Despite their importance, clinical trial protocols are described in free-text format, limiting their semantic precision and the ability to support automated reasoning, leverage data across studies and sites, or simulate trial execution under varying assumptions using Real-World Data. This paper introduces a formalized representation of clinical trials using Temporal Ensemble Logic (TEL). TEL incorporates metricized modal operators, such as "always until t" (□_t) and "possibly until t" (◇_t), where t is a time-length parameter, to offer a logical framework for capturing phenotypes in biomedicine. TEL is more expressive in syntax than classical linear temporal logic (LTL) while maintaining the simplicity of semantic structures. The attributes of TEL are exploited in this paper to formally represent not only individual clinical trial components, but also the timing and sequential dependencies of these components as a whole. Modeling strategies and demonstration case studies are provided to show that TEL can represent the entirety of clinical trials, whereby providing a formal logical framework that can be used to represent the intricate temporal dependencies in trial structure specification. Since clinical trials are a cornerstone of evidence-based medicine, serving as the scientific basis for evaluating the safety, efficacy, and comparative effectiveness of therapeutic interventions, results reported here can serve as a stepping stone that leads to scalable, consistent, and reproducible representation and simulation of clinical trials across all disease domains.

Temporal Association Rules from Motifs (Short Paper)

Authors: Mauro Milella, Giovanni Pagliarini, Guido Sciavicco, and Ionel Eduard Stan

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


Abstract
A motif is defined as a frequently occurring pattern within a (multivariate) time series. In recent years, various techniques have been developed to mine time series data. However, only a few studies have explored the idea of using motif discovery in temporal association rule mining. Interval-based temporal association rules have been recently defined and studied, along with the temporal version of the known frequent patterns, and therefore, association rule extraction algorithms (such as APRIORI and FP-Growth). In this work, we define a vocabulary of propositional letters wrapping motifs, and show how to extract temporal association rules starting from such a vocabulary. We apply our methodology to time series datasets in the fields of hand signs execution and gait recognition, and we discuss how they capture curious insights within data, keeping a high level of interpretability.

Interpolation and Separation Problems for Linear Temporal Logics (Invited Talk)

Authors: Michael Zakharyaschev

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


Abstract
The talk gives a survey of recent results on two types of problems for linear temporal logics: one is related to the existence of a Craig interpolant for a given implication in a temporal logic, the other to the existence of a temporal query separating two given sets of temporal data instances.

Modal Separation of Fixpoint Formulae

Authors: Jean Christoph Jung and Jędrzej Kołodziejski

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)


Abstract
Modal separability for modal fixpoint formulae is the problem to decide for two given modal fixpoint formulae φ,φ' whether there is a modal formula ψ that separates them, in the sense that φ ⊧ ψ and ψ ⊧ ¬φ'. We study modal separability and its special case modal definability over various classes of models, such as arbitrary models, finite models, trees, and models of bounded outdegree. Our main results are that modal separability is PSpace-complete over words, that is, models of outdegree ≤ 1, ExpTime-complete over unrestricted and over binary models, and 2-ExpTime-complete over models of outdegree bounded by some d ≥ 3. Interestingly, this latter case behaves fundamentally different from the other cases also in that modal logic does not enjoy the Craig interpolation property over this class. Motivated by this we study also the induced interpolant existence problem as a special case of modal separability, and show that it is coNExpTime-complete and thus harder than validity in the logic. Besides deciding separability, we also investigate the problem of efficient construction of separators. Finally, we consider in a case study the extension of modal fixpoint formulae by graded modalities and investigate separability by modal formulae and graded modal formulae.

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.

Strong Faithfulness for ELH Ontology Embeddings

Authors: Victor Lacerda, Ana Ozaki, and Ricardo Guimarães

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 3 (2024). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 3


Abstract
Ontology embedding methods are powerful approaches to represent and reason over structured knowledge in various domains. One advantage of ontology embeddings over knowledge graph embeddings is their ability to capture and impose an underlying schema to which the model must conform. Despite advances, most current approaches do not guarantee that the resulting embedding respects the axioms the ontology entails. In this work, we formally prove that normalized ELH has the strong faithfulness property on convex geometric models, which means that there is an embedding that precisely captures the original ontology. We present a region-based geometric model for embedding normalized ELH ontologies into a continuous vector space. To prove strong faithfulness, our construction takes advantage of the fact that normalized ELH has a finite canonical model. We first prove the statement assuming (possibly) non-convex regions, allowing us to keep the required dimensions low. Then, we impose convexity on the regions and show the property still holds. Finally, we consider reasoning tasks on geometric models and analyze the complexity in the class of convex geometric models used for proving strong faithfulness.

TØIRoads: A Road Data Model Generation Tool

Authors: Grunde Haraldsson Wesenberg and Ana Ozaki

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
We describe road data models which can represent high level features of a road network such as population, points of interest, and road length/cost and capacity, while abstracting from time and geographic location. Such abstraction allows for a simplified traffic usage and congestion analysis that focus on the high level features. We provide theoretical results regarding mass conservation and sufficient conditions for avoiding congestion within the model. We describe a road data model generation tool, which we call "TØI Roads". We also describe several parameters that can be specified by a TØI Roads user to create graph data that can serve as input for training graph neural networks (or another learning approach that receives graph data as input) for predicting congestion within the model. The road data model generation tool allows, for instance, the study of the effects of population growth and how changes in road capacity can mitigate traffic congestion.

Current and Future Challenges in Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22282)

Authors: James P. Delgrande, Birte Glimm, Thomas Meyer, Miroslaw Truszczynski, and Frank Wolter

Published in: Dagstuhl Manifestos, Volume 10, Issue 1 (2024)


Abstract
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is a central, longstanding, and active area of Artificial Intelligence. Over the years it has evolved significantly; more recently it has been challenged and complemented by research in areas such as machine learning and reasoning under uncertainty. In July 2022,sser a Dagstuhl Perspectives workshop was held on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. The goal of the workshop was to describe the state of the art in the field, including its relation with other areas, its shortcomings and strengths, together with recommendations for future progress. We developed this manifesto based on the presentations, panels, working groups, and discussions that took place at the Dagstuhl Workshop. It is a declaration of our views on Knowledge Representation: its origins, goals, milestones, and current foci; its relation to other disciplines, especially to Artificial Intelligence; and on its challenges, along with key priorities for the next decade.
