Inconsistency-tolerant semantics have been proposed to provide meaningful ontological query answers even in the presence of inconsistencies. Several such semantics rely on the notion of a repair, which is a "maximal" consistent subset of the database, where different maximality criteria might be adopted depending on the application at hand. Previous work in the context of Datalog+/- has considered only the subset and cardinality maximality criteria.
We take here a step further and study inconsistency-tolerant semantics under maximality criteria based on weights and priority levels. We provide a thorough complexity analysis for a wide range of existential rule languages and for several complexity measures.
