Arguments, dialogue, and negotiation

TLDR
A particular protocol which is suitable for negotiation is proposed, and its use is illustrated on an example from the literature, showing how the generation and interpretation of arguments fits into the process of negotiation.
Abstract
In the past few years there have been a number of proposals for mechanisms for negotiation between agents that make use of argumentation. These proposals have largely been vague on the subject of how the generation and interpretation of arguments fits into the process of negotiation. This paper addresses this gap, proposing a particular protocol which is suitable for negotiation, and illustrating its use on an example from the literature.

Argumentation in artificial intelligence

TL;DR: A number of foundational contributions provided the basis for the formulation of argumentation models and their promotion in AI related settings and then a number of new themes that have emerged in recent years are considered, many of which provide the principal topics of the research presented in this volume.

Argumentation-based negotiation

TL;DR: This article provides a conceptual framework through which the core elements and features required by agents engaged in argumentation-based negotiation, as well as the environment that hosts these agents are outlined, and surveys and evaluates existing proposed techniques in the literature.

A Reasoning Model Based on the Production of Acceptable Arguments

TL;DR: The argumentation framework proposed by Dung is refined by taking into account preference relations between arguments in order to integrate two complementary points of view on the concept of acceptability, which refines previous works by Prakken and Sartor.

On the acceptability of arguments and its fundamental role in nonmonotonic reasoning, logic programming and n -person games

TL;DR: By showing that argumentation can be viewed as a special form of logic programming with negation as failure, this paper introduces a general logic-programming-based method for generating meta-interpreters for argumentation systems, a method very much similar to the compiler-compiler idea in conventional programming.

Agents that Reason and Negotiate by Arguing

TL;DR: A framework, based upon a system of argumentation, which permits agents to negotiate in order to establish acceptable ways of solving problems and describes a case study of this relationship for a particular class of architectures (namely those for belief-desire-intention agents).

A Framework for Argumentation-Based Negotiation

TL;DR: A general framework for negotiation in which agents exchange proposals backed by arguments which summarise the reasons why the proposals should be accepted is described.

Modelling dialogues using argumentation

TL;DR: This paper investigates the use of argumentation as the basis for a wider range of types of dialogue in negotiation dialogues between agents using MacKenzie's dialogue game DC, and shows that a translation of this into a system of argumentations can support a subset of the types of Dialogue identified by Walton and Krabbe (1995).

Question-begging in non-cumulative systems
