چکیده

Argumentation can be viewed as a process of generating explanations. However, existing argumentation semantics are developed for identifying acceptable arguments within a set, rather than giving concrete justifications for them. In this work, we propose a new argumentation semantics, related admissibility, designed for giving explanations to arguments in both Abstract Argumentation and Assumption-based Argumentation. We identify different types of explanations defined in terms of the new semantics. We also give a correct computational counterpart for explanations using dispute forests.

On Computing Explanations in Abstract Argumentation

Argumentation can be viewed as a process of generating explanations. We propose a new argumentation semantics, related admissibility, for closely capturing explanations in Abstract Argumentation, and distinguish between compact and verbose explanations. We show that dispute forests, composed of dispute trees, can be used to correctly compute these explanations.

On Computing Explanations for Non-Acceptable Arguments

Argumentation has the unique advantage of giving explanations to reasoning processes and results. Recent work studied how to give explanations for arguments that are acceptable, in terms of arguments defending it. This paper studies the counterpart of this problem by formalising explanations for arguments that are not acceptable. We give two different views (an argument-view and an attack-view)...

Two Forms of Explanations in Computational Assumption-based Argumentation

Computational Assumption-based Argumentation (CABA) has been introduced to model argumentation with numerical data processing. To realize the “explanation power” of CABA, we study two forms of argumentative explanations, argument explanations and CU explanations representing diagnosis and repair, resp.

Argumentation Based Explanations as Support for Learning Physics

Learning the concepts and the specific language within a particular domain is one important aspect in learning the domain in question. In the study reported on in this paper explanations were created based on an argumentation model and their effects on understanding and learning an important principle in classical mechanics (the principle of equivalence) was investigated. The results from the s...

Dialectical Explanations in Defeasible Argumentation

This work addresses the problem of providing explanation capabilities to an argumentation system. Explanation in defeasible argumentation is an important, and yet undeveloped field in the area. Therefore, we move in this direction by defining a concrete argument system with explanation facilities. We consider the structures that provide information on the warrant status of a literal. Our focus ...
