Abstract

Description Logics (DLs) are knowledge representation and reasoning formalisms used in many settings. Among them, the εL family of DLs stands out due to the availability of polynomial-time inference algorithms and its ability to represent knowledge from domains such as medical informatics. However, the construction of an ontology is an errorprone process which often leads to unintended inferences. This paper presents the BEACON tool for debugging εL+ ontologies. BEACON builds on earlier work relating minimal justifications (MinAs) of εL+ ontologies and MUSes of a Horn formula, and integrates state-of-the-art algorithms for solving different function problems in the SAT domain.
