Paper Abstract:
|
In recent years, there has been a considerable advance in the development of the Web, and to a large extent, this has been
due to the incorporation of a new concept which has not been considered before: Web semantics. This has been thanks to
the development of "more expressive" mark-up languages, and mainly to the use of ontologies built with these languages.
With this representation of Web knowledge (in which ontologies are used), there are necessarily associated reasoning
methods in order to infer information from the structure stored in the ontology. To date, the most used and possibly most
complete language for building ontologies is OWL, and, in turn, there are different reasoners for inferring conclusions on
these. However, none of these reasoners allows a non-monotonic reasoning as a human being does. In this article, we will
attempt to solve this problem, extending monotonic reasoning to a type of default-based non-monotonic reasoning. |
