"Correction and update of ASPIC+ paper"





A correction of:

  • H. Prakken, An abstract framework for argumentation with structured arguments. Argument and Computation 1 (2010): 93-124. [PDF]
  • Definition 6.8 of a well-formed argumentation theory is incorrect, since it allows for counterexamples to some results. The correct definition is:
    • An argumentation theory is well-formed iff: if \phi is a contrary of \psi then \psi is not in Kn and \psi is not the consequent of a strict rule.
    The correct definition has meanwhile been published in
    • S. Modgil & H. Prakken, Revisiting preferences and argumentation. Proceedings of the 22nd International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI 2011), 1021-1026. Barcelona (Spain), 2011. [PDF]
