Motivation HEX-Programs Extend ASP by external sources Traditional safety not sufficient due to value invention Notion of liberal domain-expansion safety guarantees finite groundability Example � � r 1 : t ( a ) . r 3 : s ( Y ) ← t ( X ) , & cat [ X , a ]( Y ) . Π= r 2 : dom ( aa ) . r 4 : t ( X ) ← s ( X ) , dom ( X ) . Contribution Domain-specific existential quantification in rule heads Grounding algorithm extended by application-specific termination hooks Instances: model computation over acyclic programs, query answering over programs with logical existential quantifier, function symbols Redl C.

HEX-Programs HEX-programs extend ordinary ASP programs by external sources Definition (HEX-programs) A HEX-program consists of rules of form a 1 ∨ · · · ∨ a n ← b 1 , . . . , b m , not b m + 1 , . . . , not b n , with classical literals a i , and classical literals or an external atoms b j . Definition (External Atoms) An external atom is of the form & p [ q 1 , . . . , q k ]( t 1 , . . . , t l ) , p . . . external predicate name q i . . . predicate names or constants HEX- t j . . . terms Reasoner program Semantics: 1 + k + l -ary Boolean oracle function f & p : Implementation p [ q 1 , . . . , q k ]( t 1 , . . . , t l ) is true under assignment A & of & p iff f & p ( A , q 1 , . . . , q k , t 1 , . . . , t l ) = 1 .

Domain-specific Existential Quantification Idea Introduce new values which may appear in answer sets Structure of these values matters Introduction may be subject to constraints outside the program Realization: Use value invention in rule body, transfer new values to the head Example iban ( B , I ) ← country ( B , C ) , bank ( B , N ) , & iban [ C , N , B ]( I ) . Example lifetime ( M , L ) ← machine ( M , C ) , & lifetime [ M , C ]( L ) . Redl C. (TU Vienna) HEX-Programs September 13, 2013 4 / 18

Model-building over Acyclic HEX ∃ -Programs Definition A HEX ∃ -program is a finite set of rules of form X ′ ∪ � Y : atom [ � ∀ � X ∃ � Y ] ← conj [ � X ] , (1) X ′ ⊆ � where � X and � Y are disjoint sets of variables, � X , atom [ � X ] . Definition For HEX ∃ -program Π let T ∃ (Π) be the HEX-program where each X ′ ∪ � r = ∃ � Y : atom [ � Y ] ← conj [ � X ] is replaced by X ′ ∪ � exists | ˜ X ′ | , | ˜ atom [ � Y ] ← conj [ � Y | [ r , � X ′ ]( � X ] , & Y ) , where f & exists n , m ( A , r ,� x ,� y ) = 1 iff � y = φ 1 , . . . , φ m is a vector of fresh and unique null values for r ,� x and do not appear in Π , and f & exists n , m ( A , r ,� x ,� y ) = 0 otherwise.

Model-building over Acyclic HEX ∃ -Programs For de-safe programs we do not need the hooks, thus let GroundDESafeHEX be the instantiation of BGroundHEX where Repeat repeats exactly once Evaluate return always true Then: Proposition For de-safe programs Π , AS ( GroundDESafeHEX (Π)) ≡ pos AS (Π g ) .

Query Answering over Positive HEX ∃ -Programs Definition X ′ ∪ � A Datalog ∃ -program is a finite set of rules of form ∀ � X ∃ � Y : atom [ � Y ] ← conj [ � X ] X ′ ⊆ � where � X and � Y are disjoint sets of variables, � X . Disallowed: default negation, general external atoms. Definition A homomorphism is a mapping h : N ∪ V → C ∪ V . A homomorphism h is called substitution if h ( N ) = N for all N ∈ N . Definition Model of a program: set of atoms M s.t. whenever there is a substitution h with h ( B ( r )) ⊆ M for some r ∈ Π , then h | � X ( H ( r )) is substitutive to some atom in M . Definition A conjunctive query q is of form ∃ � Y : ← conj [ � X ∪ � Y ] with free variables � X . Redl C. (TU Vienna) HEX-Programs September 13, 2013 10 / 18
