Conference Proceeding
Stapleton, G., Delaney, A., Compton, M., & Chapman, P. (2018)
Visualizing ALC Using Concept Diagrams. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-78102-0_6
This paper addresses the problem of how to visualize axioms from ALC using concept diagrams. We establish that 66.4% of OWL axioms defined for ontologies in the Manchester cor...
