Inference Web suite

Proof Markup Language (PML)

• Proof Markup Language (PML) helps users encode and share their proofs in RDF, and it is supported by a series of tools for generating, registering, searching, and visualizing the Proof content.
• A PML Primer from the Stanford University Knowledge Systems, Artificial Intelligence Laboratory can be found here.

IW Toolkit

Web-based and standalone tools that facilitate human users to browse, debug, explain, and abstract the knowledge encoded in PML.

Probe-It! - Knowledge Provenance Visualization Framework

• Probe-It! is a browser suited to graphically rendering Proof Markup Language (PML) based provenance associated with results derived from inference engines and workflows.
• Probe-It! consists of three primary views to accommodate the different kinds of provenance information: results, justifications, and provenance, which refer to final and intermediate data, descriptions of the generation process (i.e., execution traces) and information about the sources respectively.

Java

Jena

Jena is a Java framework for building Semantic Web applications. It provides a programmatic environment for RDF, RDFS and OWL, SPARQL and includes a rule-based inference engine.

Spring

Spring is a layered Java/J2EE application framework.

Web Ontology

Web Ontology Language (OWL DL)

• The OWL Web Ontology Language is intended to provide a language that can be used to describe the classes and relations between resources that are inherent in Web documents and applications.

Pellet (OWL DL Reasoner)

• Pellet is an open source, OWL DL reasoner in Java that is developed, and commercially supported, by Clark & Parsia LLC.
• Based on the tableaux algorithms for expressive Description Logics (DL), Pellet supports the full expressivity of OWL DL, including reasoning about nominals (enumerated classes).
