    Abstract

    This poster and demo presents new OWL ontology explanation tools and facilities that are available in Protégé 4. These explanations take the form of justifications. A justification is a minimal set of axioms that is sufficient for a given entailment to hold. Justification finding services for Protégé 4 are presented, including what have become defacto explanation services such as root/derived pinpointing, and justification presentation. In addition to this, an implementation of recent theoretical work that computes so-called precise justifications is presented. Finally, preliminary work and new ideas of how justifications might be made easier to understand is a topic for discussion. All feedback and discussion is welcomed. Protégé 4 is open source, freely available software.
