MAgtALO: Using Agents, Arguments, and the Web to Explore Complex Debates
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces the MAgtALO system, a prototype environment for online debate that aims to provide a mechanism for supporting naturalistic dialogue. MAgtALO demonstrates how dialogue protocols can be harnessed to achieve two objectives: first, to support flexible intuitive interaction with data in complex, contentious domains in order to facilitate understanding and assimilation; and second, to provide mechanisms for structured knowledge elicitation that allow the resources in those domains to be expanded.

متن کاملThe possibility of arguability: combining multiple arguments on the same topic
Building on earlier work using dialectical argumentation to represent uncertainty, we consider how the results of different debates on the same topic may be combined coherently. The different debates may be considered as arising under different scenarios about the world. We define a class of uncertainty measures to represent the extent to which a proposition is supported across these alternativ...
متن کاملn-Opposition theory to structure debates
2007 was the first international congress on the “square of oppositions”. A first attempt to structure debate using n-opposition theory was presented along with the results of a first experiment on the web.
