B235 Van Vleck Hall
Description
Abstract: Argumentation Frameworks formalize the dynamics of non-monotonic reasoning in directed graphs, and "acceptable" beliefs as sets of nodes in those graphs having certain properties. In this talk I will consider a recursive criterion "weak-admissibility" for determining the acceptability of sets within a framework, which has had much attention in recent literature.
