On the Relationship between Shy and Warded Datalog+/-

Complexity of Arithmetic in Warded Datalog+-

Warded Datalog+- extends the logic-based language Datalog with existential quantifiers in rule heads. Existential rules are needed for advanced reasoning tasks, e.g., ontological reasoning. The theoretical efficiency guarantees of Warded Datalog+- do not cover extensions crucial for data analytics, such as arithmetic. Moreover, despite the significance of arithmetic for common data analytic scenarios, no decidable fragment of any Datalog+- language extended with arithmetic has been identified. We close this gap by defining a new language that extends Warded Datalog+- with arithmetic and prove …

The Vadalog System: Datalog-based Reasoning for Knowledge Graphs

Over the past years, there has been a resurgence of Datalog-based systems in the database community as well as in industry. In this context, it has been recognized that to handle the complex knowl\-edge-based scenarios encountered today, such as reasoning over large knowledge graphs, Datalog has to be extended with features such as existential quantification. Yet, Datalog-based reasoning in the presence of existential quantification is in general undecidable. Many efforts have been made to define decidable fragments. Warded Datalog+/- is a very promising one, as it captures PTIME complexity wh…

The Space-Efficient Core of Vadalog

Vadalog is a system for performing complex reasoning tasks such as those required in advanced knowledge graphs. The logical core of the underlying Vadalog language is the warded fragment of tuple-generating dependencies (TGDs). This formalism ensures tractable reasoning in data complexity, while a recent analysis focusing on a practical implementation led to the reasoning algorithm around which the Vadalog system is built. A fundamental question that has emerged in the context of Vadalog is the following: can we limit the recursion allowed by wardedness in order to obtain a formalism that prov…

iWarded: A System for Benchmarking Datalog+/- Reasoning (technical report)

Recent years have seen increasing popularity of logic-based reasoning systems, with research and industrial interest as well as many flourishing applications in the area of Knowledge Graphs. Despite that, one can observe a substantial lack of specific tools able to generate nontrivial reasoning settings and benchmark scenarios. As a consequence, evaluating, analysing and comparing reasoning systems is a complex task, especially when they embody sophisticated optimizations and execution techniques that leverage the theoretical underpinnings of the adopted logic fragment. In this paper, we aim a…

Datalog: Bag Semantics via Set Semantics

Duplicates in data management are common and problematic. In this work, we present a translation of Datalog under bag semantics into a well-behaved extension of Datalog, the so-called {\em warded Datalog}$^\pm$, under set semantics. From a theoretical point of view, this allows us to reason on bag semantics by making use of the well-established theoretical foundations of set semantics. From a practical point of view, this allows us to handle the bag semantics of Datalog by powerful, existing query engines for the required extension of Datalog. This use of Datalog$^\pm$ is extended to give a se…
