Towards Discovery of Frequent Patterns in Description Logics with Rules

  • Conference paper
Rules and Rule Markup Languages for the Semantic Web (RuleML 2005)

Abstract

This paper follows the research direction that has received a growing interest recently, namely application of knowledge discovery methods to complex data representations. Among others, there have been methods proposed for learning in expressive, hybrid languages, combining relational component with terminological (description logics) component. In this paper we present a novel approach to frequent pattern discovery over the knowledge base represented in such a language, the combination of the basic subset of description logics with DL-safe rules, that can be seen as a subset of Semantic Web Rule Language. Frequent patterns in our approach are represented as conjunctive DL-safe queries over the hybrid knowledge base. We present also an illustrative example of our method based on the financial dataset.
