Arguments and Defeat in Argument-Based Nonmonotonic Reasoning
Abstract. Argument-based formalisms are gaining popularity as models of nonmonotonic reasoning. Central in such formalisms is a notion of argument. Arguments are formal reconstruct...

A Family of Defeasible Reasoning Logics and its Implementation
Abstract. Defeasible reasoning is a direction in nonmonotonic reasoning that is based on the use of rules that may be defeated by other rules. It is a simple, but often more effic...
