Towards SPARQL-based induction for large-scale RDF data sets

We show how to convert OWL Class Expressions to SPARQL queries where the instances of that concept are with a specific ABox equal to the SPARQL query result. Furthermore, we implement and integrate our converter into the CELOE algorithm (Class Expression Learning for Ontology Engineering), where it replaces the position of a traditional OWL reasoner. This will foster the application of structured machine learning to the Semantic Web, since most data is readily available in triple stores. We provide experimental evidence for the usefulness of the bridge. In particular, we show that we can improve the run time of machine learning approaches by several orders of magnitude.
