The rise of smart applications has drawn interest to logical reasoning over data streams. Recently, different query languages and stream processing reasoning engines were proposed in different communities. However, due to a lack of theoretical foundations, the expressivity and semantics of these diverse approaches are given only informally. Towards clear specifications and means for analytic study, a formal framework is needed to define their semantics in precise terms. To this end, we present a first step towards an ideal semantics that allows for exact descriptions and comparisons of stream reasoning systems.
StreamLog Another logic-based approach towards stream reasoning is StreamLog @cite_11 . It makes use of Datalog and introduces whose first arguments are timestamps. By introducing which have syntactical restrictions on temporal rules, StreamLog defines (for which Closed World Assumption can be safely applied) that can be used in recursive rules in a stream setting. Since sequential programs are locally stratified, they have efficiently computable perfect (i.e., unique) models. Similar to capturing a fragment of Reactive ASP, we can capture StreamLog by converting temporal atoms @math to expressions @math and employing safety conditions to rules to simulate non-blocking negation. Moreover, we plan for having weaker notions of negation that might block rules but just for a bounded number of time points to the future.

This paper presents an inference algorithm that can discover temporal logic properties of a system from data. Our algorithm operates on finite time system trajectories that are labeled according to whether or not they demonstrate some desirable system properties (e.g. "the car successfully stops before hitting an obstruction"). A temporal logic formula that can discriminate between the desirable behaviors and the undesirable ones is constructed. The formulae also indicate possible causes for each set of behaviors (e.g. "If the speed of the car is greater than 15 m s within 0.5s of brake application, the obstruction will be struck") which can be used to tune designs or to perform on-line monitoring to ensure the desired behavior. We introduce reactive parameter signal temporal logic (rPSTL), a fragment of parameter signal temporal logic (PSTL) that is expressive enough to capture causal, spatial, and temporal relationships in data. We define a partial order over the set of rPSTL formulae that is based on language inclusion. This order enables a directed search over this set, i.e. given a candidate rPSTL formula that does not adequately match the observed data, we can automatically construct a formula that will fit the data at least as well. Two case studies, one involving a cattle herding scenario and one involving a stochastic hybrid gene circuit model, are presented to illustrate our approach. This paper introduces a framework for inference of timed temporal logic properties from data. The dataset is given as a finite set of pairs of finite-time system traces and labels, where the labels indicate whether the traces exhibit some desired behavior (e.g., a ship traveling along a safe route). We propose a decision-tree based approach for learning signal temporal logic classifiers. The method produces binary decision trees that represent the inferred formulae. Each node of the tree contains a test associated with the satisfaction of a simple formula, optimally tuned from a predefined finite set of primitives. Optimality is assessed using heuristic impurity measures, which capture how well the current primitive splits the data with respect to the traces' labels. We propose extensions of the usual impurity measures from machine learning literature to handle classification of system traces by leveraging upon the robustness degree concept. The proposed incremental construction procedure greatly improves the execution time and the accuracy compared to existing algorithms. We present two case studies that illustrate the usefulness and the computational advantages of the algorithms. The first is an anomaly detection problem in a maritime environment. The second is a fault detection problem in an automotive powertrain system. Data Stream Management Systems (DSMS) have attracted much interest from the database community, and extensions of relational database languages were proposed for expressing continuous queries on data streams. However, while relational databases were built on the solid bedrock of logic, the same cannot be said for DSMS. Thus, a logic-based reconstruction of DSMS languages and their unique computational model is long overdue. Indeed, the banning of blocking queries and the fact that stream data are ordered by their arrival timestamps represent major new aspects that have yet to be characterized by simple theories. In this paper, we show that these new requirements can be modeled using the familiar deductive database concepts of closed-world assumption and explicit local stratification. Besides its obvious theoretical interest, this approach leads to the design of a powerful version of Datalog for data streams. This language is called Streamlog and takes the query and application languages of DSMS to new levels of expressive power, by removing the unnecessary limitations that severely impair current commercial systems and research prototypes. Stream reasoning is an emerging research field focused on dynamic processing and continuous reasoning over huge volumes of streaming data. Finding the right trade-off between scalability and expressivity is a key challenge in this area. In this paper, we want to provide a baseline for exploring the applicability of complex reasoning to the Web of Data based on a solution that combines results and approaches from database research, stream processing, and nonmonotonic logic programming.
