In this paper we consider Description Logics (DLs), well-known logics for managing structured knowledge, with its fuzzy extension to deal with vague information. While for fuzzy DLs correct and complete ad-hoc reasoning procedures have been given, the topic of this paper is to present a reasoning preserving transformation of fuzzy DLs into classical DLs. This has the considerable practical consequence that reasoning in fuzzy DLs is feasible using already existing DL systems.

Abstract

In this paper we consider Description Logics (DLs), well-known logics for managing structured knowledge, with its fuzzy extension to deal with vague information. While for fuzzy DLs correct and complete ad-hoc reasoning procedures have been given, the topic of this paper is to present a reasoning preserving transformation of fuzzy DLs into classical DLs. This has the considerable practical consequence that reasoning in fuzzy DLs is feasible using already existing DL systems.
