  • KurzfassungAbstract
    For description logics with existential restrictions, the size of the least common subsumer (lcs) of concept descriptions may grow exponentially in the size of the concept descriptions. To reduce the size of the output descriptions and the run-time of the lcs algorithm we present an optimized algorithm for computing the lcs in ALE using lazy unfolding. A first evaluation of the performance of the naive algorithm in comparison to the performance of the algorithm using lazy unfolding indicates a performance gain for both concept sizes as well as run-times.
