[Pellet-users] Slow inference/Restrict inference

[Alejandro Rodríguez González]

Hello,

I ask a few days ago about how to restrict the inference domain in 
pellet but no one answered me so.. i will try to make again the question 
(maybe no one understand me, i don't know).

I have an ontology ( http://www.jalojavier.es/humandisease.owl ) and 
Jena+pellet code ( http://rafb.net/p/k1yHie11.html ) to make the inferences.

The problem is that the inference that i try to make with the code 
mentioned take a lot of time (near to 180 seconds)..

I make some test splitting the ontology into small parts, and i think 
that the problem is the number of instances of the ontology (now i have 
near to 600 individuals and 1500 classes)..

I think that may be it's possible to optimize the inference speed making 
a restriction over the inference domain. I have "Diaseses", "Symptoms", 
and "Lab Test" superclasses that are involucrated in the inferences, 
but, the results of the inferences are only subclasses of "Diseases" 
(that only has near to 30 instances).

It's possible say to pellet that only must search the results in this 
superclass and ignore the rest?

Or any other solution that optimize the inference speed..

Thanks.
