Abstract / Description of output

. Inconsistency handling is a central problem in many knowledge representation fields, such as belief revision, belief merging. Many approaches have been proposed to handle inconsistency in ontologies. In this paper, we propose a stratification-based approach for inconsistency handling in description logics (DLs), a family of ontology languages. This approach consists of two steps. In the first step, we obtain a preference relation on the axioms in the DL knowledge base using an algorithm. Then two existing approaches in first-order logic are adapted to resolve conflicting information in the stratified DL knowledge base.
