A ConArg-Based Library for Abstract Argumentation
Stefano Bistarelli, Fabio Rossi, Francesco Santini · 2017
We present ConArgLib, a C++ library implemented to help programmers solve some of the most important problems related to extension-based Abstract Argumentation. The library is based on ConArg, which exploits Constraint Programming and, in particular, Gecode, a toolkit for developing constraintbased systems and applications. Given a semantics, such problems consist, for example, in enumerating all the extensions, and checking the credulous or sceptical acceptance of an argument passed as parameter. The goal is to let programmers use the library to quickly develop programs on top of it, as, for instance, implementing decision-making procedures based on the strongest arguments, or comparing two frameworks by looking at the differences between their (e.g., stable) semantics.
