Attacker and Defender Counting Approach for Abstract Argumentation1
نویسندگان
چکیده
In Dung’s abstract argumentation, arguments are either acceptable or unacceptable, given a chosen notion of acceptability. This gives a coarse way to compare arguments. In this paper, we propose a counting approach for a more fine-gained assessment to arguments by counting the number of their respective attackers and defenders based on argument graph and argument game. An argument is more acceptable if the proponent puts forward more number of defenders for it and the opponent puts forward less number of attackers against it. We show that our counting model has two well-behaved properties: normalization and convergence. Then, we define a counting semantics based on this model, and investigate some general properties of the semantics.

متن کاملA Three-Level Mathematical Model for an r-interdiction Hierarchical Facilities Location Problem
In general, any system may be at risk in a case of losing the critical facilities by natural disasters or terrorist attacks. This paper focuses on identifying the critical facilities and planning to reduce the effect of this event. A three-level model is suggested in the form of a defender-attacker-defender. It is assumed that the facilities are hierarchical and capable of nesting. Also, the at...
متن کاملPreventive Strike vs. False Targets in Defense Strategy
Abstract: A defender allocates its resource between defending an object passively by deploying false targets, and striking preventively against an attacker seeking to destroy the object. With no preventive strike the defender allocates its entire resource to deploying false targets, which the attacker cannot distinguish from the genuine object. If the defender strikes preventively, the attacker...
متن کاملSecurity of Transportation Networks: Modeling Attacker-Defender Interaction
Transportation networks are increasingly facing new security threats due to the vulnerabilities of cyber-physical components that support their operation. In this article, we aim to understand how the network operator (defender) should prioritize the investment in securing a set of facilities in order to limit the impact of a strategic adversary (attacker) who can target a facility to increase ...
متن کاملAdversarial Patrolling Games
Defender-Attacker Stackelberg games are the foundations of tools deployed for computing optimal patrolling strategies in adversarial domains such as the United states Federal Air Marshals Service and the United States Coast Guard, among others. In Stackelberg game models of these systems the attacker knows only the probability that each target is covered by the defender, but is oblivious to the...
