Constraint-Based Argumentation for Decision Support in the Context of Combat Power Management
Hengameh Irandoust, Abder Rezak Benaskeur · 2008
Abstract : This report describes an argumentation-based Decision Support System (DSS) that can assist the operator with target engagement within the Combat Power Management (CPM) process. It is shown how the information gathered and analyzed during the engageability assessment, a process based on the constraint satisfaction principle, can be exploited by an argumentation module. Using a dialectical model, the argumentation module enables the DSS to anticipate and respond to the operator's objections to its recommendations, and thus convince him of the soundness of its reasoning.
