Description
Summary:<p>In previous work, we have introduced variable-strength conditional preferences for ranking objects in ontologies. In this paper, we continue this line of research. We propose a new ranking of objects, which integrates this user-defined preference ranking of objects with Google's importance ranking (called <em>PageRank</em>) based on the link structure between the objects. We also propose to use probabilistic description logics based on Bayesian networks and the description logic <em>DL-Lite</em> to compute the ranking of incompletely specified objects.</p>
