A Fuzzy Model for Representing Uncertain, Subjective, and Vague Temporal Knowledge in Ontologies
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Hence, existing approaches for temporal modeling based on crisp representation of time cannot be applied to these advanced modeling tasks. ...
To overcome these difficulties, in this paper we present fuzzy interval-based temporal model capable of representing imprecise temporal knowledge. ...
We are also examining the different properties of our new fuzzy temporal relations (like transitivity) which work will allow us to make basic inferences even in case of fuzzy intervals (e.g. ...

Publishing Uncertainty on the Semantic Web: Blurring the LOD Bubbles
[chapter]
2019
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We present a new vocabulary and a framework to capture and handle uncertainty in the Semantic Web. ...
Current standards of the Semantic Web and Linked Data do not support such a representation in a formal way and independently of any theory. ...
This vocabulary offers to handle fuzzy or inconsistent data and is useful in time-based reasoning. Yet this vocabulary does not provide a formal definition of uncertainty. ...

Approaches to Uncertain or Imprecise Rules - A Survey
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
With this paper we present a brief overview of selected promi nent approaches to rule frameworks and formal rule languages for the representation of and reasoning with uncertain or imprecise knowledge. ...
This work covers selected probabilistic and possibilistic logics, as well as implementations of uncertainty and possibilistic reasoning in rule engine software. ...
Probabilistic Approaches Probability Theory Probability theory is the mathematical theory of random events. ...

Using the Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence to Resolve ABox Inconsistencies
[chapter]
2008
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence is a formalism, which allows appropriate interpretation of extractors' confidence values. ...
Automated ontology population using information extraction algorithms can produce inconsistent knowledge bases. ...
In the Semantic Web domain the studies on uncertain reasoning are mostly focused on two formalisms: probability theory and fuzzy logic. ...

We complement the model theory by a set of RDFS-/OWL 2 RL-like entailment (if-then) rules, acting on the syntactic representation of modalized statements. ...

Description and reasoning for vague ontologies using logic programming
2018
IET Software
These vagueness descriptions are inputs to vagueness reasoning procedure implemented at meta-level, which is based on extended tableau algorithm. ...
The Semantic Web ontologies can contain vague axioms, which means the knowledge about them is imprecise and then query answering will not possible due to the open world assumption if the necessary information ...
The rough sets theory as generalisation of the fuzzy sets theory [8, 9] is another approach to vagueness. ...

D4.1: Natural Multimodal Interaction Baseline

We implemented a prototype for the experiments in year 1, which provide us with interaction data that can be used later to develop and evaluate the components in this work package. ...
We defined a new formalism for the specification of dialogue policies that combines dialogue rules, knowledge representation and dialogue history in a unique way. ...

Towards the Representation of Claims in Ontologies for the Digital Humanities
2021
International Joint Workshop on Semantic Web and Ontology Design for Cultural Heritage
Knowledge and data in the human sciences are sometimes expressed in hypothetical or even incompatible terms. One wonders therefore how to make sense of them in ontological modeling frameworks. ...
Our proposal builds on existing works in the state of the art. ...

Managing home care with loose goals and policies
2014
Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments
However, it is not always possible to rely on exact information for such an approach. Policies should therefore not have to be formulated in terms of precise inputs and outputs. ...
The paper uses automated home care management as a concrete illustration of how the approach works. ...

Evaluating Data Reliability: An Evidential Answer with Application to a Web-Enabled Data Warehouse
2013
IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering
In this paper, we propose a generic method to assess data reliability from a set of criteria using the theory of belief functions. Customizable criteria and insightful decisions are provided. ...
There are many available methods to integrate information source reliability in an uncertainty representation, but there are only a few works focusing on the problem of evaluating this reliability. ...
Indeed it encompasses fuzzy sets and probability distributions as particular representations. 1) Evidence theory: We recall the basics of the theory and its links with fuzzy sets. ...
