A Probabilistic OWL Reasoner for Intelligent Environments

However, they present some disadvantages when it is necessary to deal with uncertainty, which is common in our daily life and affects the de- cisions that we take. To overcome this drawback, we have developed a novel framework to compute fact probabilities from the axioms in an OWL ontology. This proposal comprises the definition and description of our probabilistic ontology. Our probabilistic ontology extends OWL 2 DL with a new layer to model uncertainty. With this work we aim to overcome OWL limitations to reason with uncertainty, developing a novel framework that can be used in intelligent environments.}, booktitle = {{URSW} 2014 {Uncertainty} {Reasoning} for the {Semantic} {Web}}, author = {David Aus\xedn and Diego L\xf3pez-de-Ipi\xf1a and Federico Castanedo}, month = oct, year = {2014}, note = {00000}, keywords = {OWL, bayesian networks, intelligent environments, uncertainty} }']
