An Argumentation Framework Sample Clauses

An Argumentation Framework. (AF) is a pair AF = AR, A , where AR is a set of arguments and A AR AR is the attack relationship for AF. A comprises a set of ordered pairs of distinct arguments in AR. A pair x, y is referred to as ”x attacks y”. We also say that a set of arguments S attacks an argument y if y is attacked by an argument in S. An argumentation framework can be simply represented as a directed graph whose vertices are the arguments and whose edges correspond to the elements of A. In Dung’s work, arguments are atomic and cannot be analysed further. In this paper, however, we are concerned only with arguments about mappings. We can therefore define arguments as follows:
