Automated agents should be able to persuade people in the same way people persuade
each other-via dialogs. Today, automated persuasion modeling and research use unnatural …

Network-based biocomputation (NBC) is an alternative, parallel computation approach that
can potentially solve technologically important, combinatorial problems with much lower …

The high energy consumption of electronic data processors, together with physical
challenges limiting their further improvement, has triggered intensive interest in alternative …

We introduce a formal model of explanatory dialogue called EDS. We extend this model by
including argumentation capacities to facilitate knowledge acquisition in inconsistent …

This paper studies abduction in abstract argumentation frameworks. Given an argument, an
agent verifies whether the argument is justified or not in its argumentation framework. If the …

There are several contexts of non-monotonic reasoning where a priority between rules is
established with the purpose of solving conflicts. We investigate how to modify such a …

introduced a model of corruption within strategic argumentation, and showed that some
forms of strategic argumentation are resistant to two forms of corruption: collusion and …

Dialogue games are a dynamic form of argumentation, with multiple parties pooling their
arguments with the intention of settling an issue. Such games can have a variety of …

Game theory, argumentation and dialogues all address problems concerning inter-agent
interaction, but from different perspectives. In this paper, we contribute to the study of the …

In the setting of Defeasible Logic, we deal with the problem of revising and contracting a non-
monotonic theory while minimizing the number of rules to be removed from the theory itself …
