Managing Uncertainty and Vagueness in Description Logics, Logic Programs and Description Logic Programs

  • Chapter
Reasoning Web

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 5224))

Abstract

Managing uncertainty and/or vagueness is starting to play an important role in Semantic Web representation languages. Our aim is to overview basic concepts on representing uncertain and vague knowledge in current Semantic Web ontology and rule languages (and their combination).
