Ontology-Mediated Query Answering for Probabilistic Temporal Data with EL Ontologies: Extended Version

Especially in the field of stream reasoning, there is an increased interest in reasoning about temporal data in order to detect situations of interest or complex events. Ontologies have been proved a useful way to infer missing information from incomplete data, or simply to allow for a higher order vocabulary to be used in the event descriptions. Motivated by this, ontology-based temporal query answering has been proposed as a means for the recognition of situations and complex events. But often, the data to be processed do not only contain temporal information, but also probabilistic information, for example because of uncertain sensor measurements. While there has been a plethora of research on ontologybased temporal query answering, only little is known so far about querying temporal probabilistic data using ontologies. This work addresses this problem by introducing a temporal query language that extends a well-investigated temporal query language with probability operators, and investigating the complexity of answering queries using this query language together with ontologies formulated in the description logic EL.
