Abstract

Knowledge graphs are based on graph models enriched with (sets of) attribute-value pairs, called annotations, attached to vertices and edges. Many application scenarios of knowledge graphs crucially rely on the frequent use of annotations related to time. Based on recently proposed attributed logics, we design description logics enriched with temporal annotations whose values are interpreted over discrete time. Investigating the complexity of reasoning in this new formalism, it turns out that reasoning in our temporally attributed description logic ALCHT@ is highly undecidable; thus we establish restrictions where it becomes decidable, and even tractable.
