  bibo_abstract:
  - "<jats:p>We introduce the notion of contrastive ABox explanations to answer questions
    of the type “Why is a an instance of C, but b is not?”. While there are various
    approaches for explaining positive entailments (why is C(a) entailed by the knowledge
    base) as well as missing entailments (why is C(b) not entailed) in isolation,
    contrastive explanations consider both at the same time, which allows them to
    focus on the relevant commonalities and differences between a and b. We develop
    an appropriate notion of contrastive explanations for the special case of ABox
    reasoning with description logic ontologies, and analyze the computational complexity
    for different variants under different optimality criteria, considering lightweight
    as well as more expressive description logics. We\r\nimplemented a first method
    for computing one variant of contrastive explanations, and evaluated it on generated
    problems for realistic knowledge bases.</jats:p>@eng"
