High-Level Data Access
• Concentration on application domain tasks
• Abstraction from data sources
• Efficient work
Research
• This problem is actively considered on modern scientific conferences on knowledge
representation and ontologies – OWLED (2009), (ICDE IIMAS, 2008) , the Semantic
Web magazine (2011 – the Mastro System)
• W3C developed OWL 2, OWL 2 QL (2008) and etc.
Ontology-Based Data Access (OBDA)
• Large amounts of data (distributed, inconsistent)
• Main task – query answering (domain-oriented
and efficient)
What is Ontology?
• Ontology is a knowledge domain described on some knowledge
representation language.
• Entity-Relationship and UML Class diagrams can be seen as ontology
languages.
Logic-Based Knowledge
Representation
• Enables semantic processing of data
• Enables inference of implicit knowledge
• Well studied and actively developed
– Description logics (Baader,1999), esp. DL-Lite
• Standardized
– OWL 2 Profiles
DL-Lite Best Suites for OBDA
• High expressive and computationally efficient
• Allows delegating query answering to DBMSs
and using all advantages of modern relational
technologies
• Supported by the W3C standard - OWL 2 QL
Query Answering Problem
• Given a query
and an n-tuple of objects
from A. Decide, whether
, or the ntuple is the answer for
with respect to K.
For knowledge represented in DL-Lite, we
can formulate queries in domain concepts,
translate them into ordinary SQL queries and
perform over separate databases.

Ontology Editor
OBDA-Enabled Reasoner
Mapping Processor
Data Source Manager
Consistency Checker
Query Rewritings
• OBDA-Enabled Reasoner rewrites the initial
ontology query into a set of UCQ (union
conjunctive query).
• Mapping Processor builds an SQL from UCQ
and given mappings.
• The initial query syntax may differ (SparQL,
datalog query, etc.)
TBox and ABox in DL
• TBox is a finite set of concept and role
inclusion axioms:
• ABox is a finite set of assertions:
• Where - object’s name, A – concept name, P
– role name, q – integer.
Interpretation
• Interpretation (the particular instance of KB)
is a pair if non-empty domain
and an
interpretation function
:
,
, and
.
• UNA (unique name assumption):
OWL 2 QL
• UNA is ignored; (in)equality must be defined
explicitly
• Language expressive power reduced up to
(other designation -
).
• Basic conceptual modeling relations are
available: (A)sym, (Ir)Ref, Tran
• Main constraints of
:
– Functional relations cannot be defined
– Particular roles cannot be assigned only to specific concepts, all roles
are applied to all concepts
– Disjunction coverage of knowledge domain cannot be defined
Query Rewriting Sample
• RDB tables: Person(name, age), Lives (person, city), Manages (boss,
employee).
• Query: Get the names and ages of all people living in the same city with
their boss.
• UCQ:
• Simplified UCQ:
•
•
•
•
SQL query:
SELECT P.name, P.age
FROM Person P, Manages M, Lives L1, Lives L2
WHERE P.name=L1.person AND P.name=M.employee AND
M.boss=L2.person AND L1.city=L2.city
Query Rewriting Algorithms
• CGLLR (Calvanese et al., 2007)
- Applies all suitable TBox axioms to q ( x)
- Replaces axioms containing existential
qualifications with another 3 axioms, which
increases the number of UCQ
• RQR (Pérez-Urbina, Horrocks, Motik, 2009)
- Generates clauses from TBox assertions and
then resolve clauses with query
- Potentially supports more expressive DLs
Query Rewriting Benchmark
• 9
ontologies with axioms,
containing -existential qualification:
– Vicodi (V)
– Stock exchange (S)
– University (U,UX)
– Adolena (A,AX)
– Synthetic (P1, P5,P5X)
Comparison Results
• RQR is more preferable to implement in
OBDA-enabled reasoners, than CGLLR:
– Generates less UCQ, especially for ontologies with
large number of existential qualifications
– May be further optimized and advanced to more
expressive DLs, than
Produced Rewritings
Running Time, ms
Current Work
• Preparing an ontology for a real application –
interactive television platform (IPTV) for
testing algorithms on real data
• Optimizing RQR – reducing the number of
generated clauses
• Main idea – not advance RQR, but support
more expressiveness and all OWL 2 QL
constructors in powerful mappings
