ICCMA 2023: 5th International Competition on Computational Models of Argumentation

Abstract

The study of computational models of argumentation and the development of practical automated approaches to reasoning over the models has developed into a vibrant area of artificial intelligence research in recent years. The series of International Competitions on Computational Models of Argumentation (ICCMA) aims at nurturing research and development of practical reasoning algorithms for models of argumentation. Organized biennially, the ICCMA competitions provide a snapshot of the current state of the art in algorithm implementations for central fundamental reasoning tasks over models of argumentation. The year 2023 marked the 5th instantiation of International Competitions on Computational Models of Argumentation, ICCMA 2023. We provide a comprehensive overview of ICCMA 2023, including details on the various new developments introduced in 2023, overview of the participating solvers, extensive details on the competition benchmarks and results, as well as lessons learned.
