Created on March 11, 2013, 7:13 p.m. by Hevok & updated by Hevok on May 2, 2013, 5:32 p.m.

Class Hierarchies can be constructed with the rdfs:subClassOf Property.

One can induce Superclass Relationships becuae this Property is transitive.

:EVA a owl:Class ;
    rdfs:subClassOf :AI .
:AI a owl:Class ;
    rdfs:subClassOf :Intelligence .
:Intelligence a owl:Class .

DL:

EVA ⊑ AI
AI ⊑ Intelligence
  • via Inference it can be entailed that "EVA ⊑" is also a Subclass of "Intelligence"
