This chapter provides a self-contained first introduction to description logics (DLs). The main concepts and features are explained with examples before syntax and semantics of the DL SROIQ are defined in detail. Additional sections review light-weight DL languages, discuss the relationship to the Web Ontology Language OWL and give pointers to further reading.
Bemerkung: Note: This chapter is a version of the free Description Logic Primer. A peer-reviewed version of this material has appeared as the IEEE Intelligent Systems article "Description Logics" (please use this for citations). More information about this book is found on its homepage Perspectives on Ontology Learning.
