[Pellet-users] Debugging rules

[Markus Stocker]

Andrew,

As it happens, today I sat in a meeting where part of the discussion
was that one of the advantages of DL (tableau) reasoning vs. rule
based reasoning is that in DL it is possible to provide explanations
while with rules it is hard to explain why. Though I'm going to state
this carefully but I believe it's not possible to provide an
explanation service for rule based reasoning.

Anyway, could you provide a minimal example of your case? I think that
would be helpful especially with a simple ontology and a single rule.

Cheers,
markus
