English abstract:
The combination of rules and ontologies has a central role
in the ongoing development of the Semantic Web. In previous
work, autoepistemic logic (AEL) was advocated as a
uniform host formalism to study different such combinations,
enabling comparisons on a common basis. In this paper, we
continue this line of research and investigate different embeddings
of major proposals to combine rules and ontologies
into first-order autoepistemic logic (FO-AEL). In particular,
we present embeddings for dl-programs, r-hybrid knowledge
bases, and hybrid MKNF knowledge bases, which are representatives
of different combination types. We study the embeddings
in the context of FO-AEL under the standard-names
assumption, but we also discuss variants using the any- and
all-names semantics. Our results provide interesting insights
into the properties of the discussed combination formalisms.
