Towards a probabilistic Dung-style argumentation system ?
Tjitze Rienstra · 2012
Abstract. In this paper we present a generalization of the ASPIC argumentation system, where a rule can be associated with a probability. This probability expresses uncertainty about whether or not the particular rule is active. We call this system p-ASPIC. The uncertainty about rules carries over to uncertainty about whether or not a particular argument is active. We generalize the usual Dung-style abstract argumentation semantics, in order to deal with this uncertainty. Our work should be understood as an initial step in the direction of probabilistic, instantiated, Dung-style argumentation, and we discuss a number of directions for future work. 1
