Abstract
Abstract Computational Argumentation provides tools for both modelling and reasoning with controversial information. Abstract Argumentation Frameworks represent the building blocks in this field and allow one to model the relationships between arguments with the ultimate goal of establishing their acceptability. Arguments can be evaluated through sets of criteria, called semantics, which distinguish among various justification states. For example, an argument may be accepted, rejected, ignored or even marked as undecided. This paper considers Weighted Argumentation Frameworks and proposes a novel labelling semantics that differentiates four states and generalizes existing approaches.
期刊介绍:
Logic has found application in virtually all aspects of Information Technology, from software engineering and hardware to programming and artificial intelligence. Indeed, logic, artificial intelligence and theoretical computing are influencing each other to the extent that a new interdisciplinary area of Logic and Computation is emerging.
The Journal of Logic and Computation aims to promote the growth of logic and computing, including, among others, the following areas of interest: Logical Systems, such as classical and non-classical logic, constructive logic, categorical logic, modal logic, type theory, feasible maths.... Logical issues in logic programming, knowledge-based systems and automated reasoning; logical issues in knowledge representation, such as non-monotonic reasoning and systems of knowledge and belief; logics and semantics of programming; specification and verification of programs and systems; applications of logic in hardware and VLSI, natural language, concurrent computation, planning, and databases. The bulk of the content is technical scientific papers, although letters, reviews, and discussions, as well as relevant conference reviews, are included.
