What is Incremental Reasoning?

Incremental reasoning is the ability to update a knowledge database automatically when new information is added or existing information is changed without requiring a system restart.

How is Semantic Reasoning Done Incrementally?

Only the data affected by the applied rules is considered when incorporating changes, drastically reducing the workload—making the process orders of magnitude faster.

Why is Incremental Reasoning Useful?

Reasoning helps businesses keep their data consistent and minimise downtime. It bridges the gap between analysing and accessing the database, meaning deeper insights can be gathered.

How is Semantic Reasoning carried out?

Reasoning can be performed by a semantic reasoning engine, such as RDFox, where rules can be applied to datasets and intelligent inferences can be made.
