New argumentation framework highlights rarity of context-dependent reasoning

Researchers have introduced Context-Dependent Argumentation Frameworks (CDAFs) to model how attacks between arguments can succeed or fail based on specific circumstances or regulations. They developed a polynomial-time decision procedure to determine if these context-dependent frameworks can be reduced to simpler Value-Based Argumentation Frameworks (VAFs). The study found that representability within VAFs is rare and diminishes rapidly as the number of contexts increases, suggesting that context-dependency is a genuinely novel aspect of argumentation.

    From Contexts to Values: Context-Dependent Defeat in Abstract Argumentation

    arXiv:2608.15536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In value-based argumentation, an audience's ordering of values decides which attacks succeed as defeats. In many settings the deciding factor is not the audience but the circumstances: the same attack may succeed at one procedural s…
