- Abstract: Ontologies formalise how the concepts from a given domain are interrelated.
Despite their clear potential as a backbone for explainable AI, existing
ontologies tend to be highly incomplete, which acts as a significant barrier to
their more widespread adoption. To mitigate this issue, we present a mechanism
to infer plausible missing knowledge, which relies on reasoning by analogy. To
the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper that studies analogical
reasoning within the setting of description logic ontologies. After showing
that the standard formalisation of analogical proportion has important
limitations in this setting, we introduce an alternative semantics based on
bijective mappings between sets of features. We then analyse the properties of
analogies under the proposed semantics, and show among others how it enables
two plausible inference patterns: rule translation and rule extrapolation.

'Inferentialism' is the view that meaning is given in terms of inferential behaviour.
This paper shows how 'inferentialism' enables a versatile and expressive framework for resource semantics.

We use a novel semantic approach to achieve decidability.
Specifically, we augment the logic of knowledge S5$_n$ and with an interaction axiom called (knowledge) commutativity.
We prove that our framework admits a finitary non-fixpoint characterization of common knowledge, which is of independent interest.

It generates a counterfactual hypothesis based on the logical predicates expressed in the explanation.
It then evaluates if the model's prediction on the counterfactual is consistent with that expressed logic.

Inference is omni rather than focused on predefined target variables, and corresponds to logical reasoning.
