public class BasicForwardRuleInfGraph extends BaseInfGraph implements ForwardRuleInfGraphI
An inference graph interface that runs a set of forward chaining rules to conclusion on each added triple and stores the entire result set.

This implementation has a horribly inefficient rule chainer built in. Once we have this working generalize this to an interface than can call out to a rule engine and build a real rule engine (e.g. Rete style).

  • Field Details

    • filterFunctors

      public boolean filterFunctors
      Flag, if true then find results will be filtered to remove functors and illegal RDF
  • Constructor Details

    • BasicForwardRuleInfGraph

      public BasicForwardRuleInfGraph(Reasoner reasoner, Graph schema)
      Constructor. Creates a new inference graph to which a (compiled) rule set and a data graph can be attached. This separation of binding is useful to allow any configuration parameters (such as logging) to be set before the data is added. Note that until the data is added using rebind then any operations like add, remove, find will result in errors.
      Parameters:
      reasoner - the parent reasoner
      schema - the (optional) schema data which is being processed
    • BasicForwardRuleInfGraph

      public BasicForwardRuleInfGraph(Reasoner reasoner, List<Rule> rules, Graph schema)
      Constructor. Creates a new inference graph based on the given rule set. No data graph is attached at this stage. This is to allow any configuration parameters (such as logging) to be set before the data is added. Note that until the data is added using rebind then any operations like add, remove, find will result in errors.
      Parameters:
      reasoner - the parent reasoner
      rules - the list of rules to use this time
      schema - the (optional) schema or preload data which is being processed
    • BasicForwardRuleInfGraph

      public BasicForwardRuleInfGraph(Reasoner reasoner, List<Rule> rules, Graph schema, Graph data)
      Constructor. Creates a new inference graph based on the given rule set then processes the initial data graph. No precomputed deductions are loaded.
      Parameters:
      reasoner - the parent reasoner
      rules - the list of rules to use this time
      schema - the (optional) schema or preload data which is being processed
      data - the data graph to be processed
  • Method Details

    • setRuleStore

      public void setRuleStore(Object ruleStore)
      Attach a compiled rule set to this inference graph.
      Parameters:
      ruleStore - a compiled set of rules (i.e. the result of an FRuleEngine.compile).
    • rebind

      public void rebind(Graph data)
      Replace the underlying data graph for this inference graph and start any inferences over again. This is primarily using in setting up ontology imports processing to allow an imports multiunion graph to be inserted between the inference graph and the raw data, before processing.
      Specified by:
      rebind in interface InfGraph
      Overrides:
      rebind in class BaseInfGraph
      Parameters:
      data - the new raw data graph
    • rebind

      public void rebind()
      Cause the inference graph to reconsult the underlying graph to take into account changes. Normally changes are made through the InfGraph's add and remove calls are will be handled appropriately. However, in some cases changes are made "behind the InfGraph's back" and this forces a full reconsult of the changed data.
      Specified by:
      rebind in interface InfGraph
      Overrides:
      rebind in class BaseInfGraph
    • getSchemaGraph

      public Graph getSchemaGraph()
      Return the schema graph, if any, bound into this inference graph.
      Specified by:
      getSchemaGraph in class BaseInfGraph
    • prepare

      public void prepare()
      Perform any initial processing and caching. This call is optional. Most engines either have negligable set up work or will perform an implicit "prepare" if necessary. The call is provided for those occasions where substantial preparation work is possible (e.g. running a forward chaining rule system) and where an application might wish greater control over when this prepration is done.
      Specified by:
      prepare in interface InfGraph
      Overrides:
      prepare in class BaseInfGraph
    • addDeduction

    • setFunctorFiltering

      public void setFunctorFiltering(boolean param)

      Specified by:
      setFunctorFiltering in interface ForwardRuleInfGraphI
    • findWithContinuation

      public ExtendedIterator<Triple> findWithContinuation(TriplePattern pattern, Finder continuation)
      Extended find interface used in situations where the implementator may or may not be able to answer the complete query. It will attempt to answer the pattern but if its answers are not known to be complete then it will also pass the request on to the nested Finder to append more results.
      Specified by:
      findWithContinuation in class BaseInfGraph
      Parameters:
      pattern - a TriplePattern to be matched against the data

    • find

      public ExtendedIterator<Triple> find(TriplePattern pattern)
      Basic pattern lookup interface. This implementation assumes that the underlying findWithContinuation will have also consulted the raw data.
