OWLAPI：想要使用HermiT推理器从本体中获得推断的公理

Question

我想从推理[ HermiT ]得到推断的公理以及正确的解释。我有以下本体创建的保护。

A.owl

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE rdf:RDF [
    <!ENTITY owl "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#" >

    </owl:Class>

        <owl:equivalentClass rdf:resource="http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C"/>
    </owl:Class>

以下是我的 Java代码： -

//Some work done to load ontology
ReasonerFactory factory = new ReasonerFactory();
Reasoner reasoner = new Reasoner(reasonerConf, owlOntology);
BlackBoxExplanation explain = new BlackBoxExplanation(owlOntology, factory, reasoner);
HSTExplanationGenerator multiEx = new HSTExplanationGenerator(explain);
InferredSubClassAxiomGenerator gen = new InferredSubClassAxiomGenerator();
Set<OWLSubClassOfAxiom> subClass = gen.createAxioms(dataFactory, reasoner);
SatisfiabilityConverter converter = new SatisfiabilityConverter(dataFactory);
for (OWLSubClassOfAxiom ax : subClass) {
    System.out.println("\nAxiom :- " + ax);
    System.out.println("Is axiom entailed by reasoner ? :- " + reasoner.isEntailed(ax));
    System.out.println("Is axiom contained in ontology ? :- " + owlOntology.containsAxiom(ax));
    Set<Set<OWLAxiom>> expl = multiEx.getExplanations(converter.convert(ax));
    System.out.println("No. of Explanations :- " + expl.size());
    System.out.println("Explanation :- ");
    for (Set<OWLAxiom> a : expl) {
        System.out.println(a);
    }
}

根据我的代码，这里是输出： -

Axiom :- SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B> owl:Thing)
Is axiom entailed by reasoner ? :- true
Is axiom contained in ontology ? :- false
No. of Explanations :- 1
Explanation :- 
[EquivalentClasses(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C> )]

Axiom :- SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C> owl:Thing)
Is axiom entailed by reasoner ? :- true
Is axiom contained in ontology ? :- false
No. of Explanations :- 1
Explanation :- 
[EquivalentClasses(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C> )]

Axiom :- SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#A> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B>)
Is axiom entailed by reasoner ? :- true
Is axiom contained in ontology ? :- true
No. of Explanations :- 1
Explanation :- 
[SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#A> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B>)]

Axiom :- SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#A> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C>)
Is axiom entailed by reasoner ? :- true
Is axiom contained in ontology ? :- false
No. of Explanations :- 1
Explanation :- 
[EquivalentClasses(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#C> ), SubClassOf(<http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#A> <http://www.semanticweb.org/ontologies/A#B>)]

我有以下问题：

1）此代码是否足以获得推断的公理？ （就像我可以检查原始本体中是否有新的公理，如果没有，那么它是推断的公理 - [照顾公理说C SubClassOf owl:Thing]）

2）推理人的isEntailed()方法如果总是给予true会有什么用？

3）推断公理总有一种解释。这是对的吗 ？对于推断的公理A SubClassOf C，有1个解释，但其Set与保护中显示的相反（顺序）。所以我需要反向展示它吗？

Answer 1

1）是的，这已经足够了 - 在本体中引入和存在的公理通常被称为“断言”。

2）isEntailed（）并不总是返回true。它适用于你正在使用的公理 - 尝试询问owl：Thing是否为子类，如果owl：Nothing。

3）对于所包含的公理至少有一个解释。当公理包含在本体中时，这是一个微不足道的解释 - 所有包含的公理都是必需的。对于更复杂的情况，可能有多种解释。
