Dung

An implementation of Dung's argumentation frameworks, an abstract argumentation model used to either directly represent conflicting information, or used as a translation target for more complex (structured) argumentation models.

For an introduction to Dung's frameworks see the Wikipedia article on argumentation frameworks and Dung's paper from 1995:

"On the acceptability of arguments and its fundamental role in nonmonotonic reasoning, logic programming, and n-person games", Artificial Intelligence 77: 321-357.

For the papers accompanying this library see:

• "Towards a framework for the implementation and verification of translations between argumentation models"
• "A principled approach to the implementation of argumentation models"

Usage

import Language.Dung

-- Define an argumentation framework: A -> B -> C
let af = AF ["A", "B", "C"] [("A", "B"), ("B", "C")]

-- Compute the grounded extension
groundedExt af
-- ["A", "C"]

-- Compute preferred extensions
preferredExt af
-- [["A","C"]]

Executable

The dungell executable reads argumentation frameworks from files in CEGARTIX/PrefSat format:

dungell --filename exampleaf.txt --grounded
dungell --filename exampleaf.txt --preferred
dungell --filename exampleaf.txt --all
