In the theory of abstract argumentation, the acceptance status of arguments is normally
determined for the complete set of arguments at once, under a single semantics. However …

Values are at the heart of human decision-making. They are used to decide whether
something or some state of affairs is good or not, and they are also used to address the …

Abstract Argumentation provides a sophisticated yet powerful mechanism for the
formalization of commonsense reasoning in knowledge-based systems, with application in …

This article is devoted to the study of methods to change defeasible logic programs (de. lps)
which are the knowledge bases used by the Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) …

In intentional agents, actions are derived from the mental attitudes and their relationships. In

BDI models and argumentation-based approaches are powerful tools that can play a
fundamental role in implementing intelligent systems for complex business and industrial …

The central contribution of this dissertation is the proposal of a graded BDI agent model (g-
BDI), specifying an architecture capable of representing and reasoning with graded mental …

In this work, an agent architecture that combines defeasible argumentation and the BDI
model is described. Argumentation will be used as a mechanism for reasoning about beliefs …

In this work we will present an integration of a query-answering argumentation approach
with an abstract agent programming language. Agents will argumentatively reason via …
