Formal Argumentation, Dialogue, Users and Explanation

Formal Argumentation, Dialogue, Users and Explanation
-

This is a past event

In this talk I will describe several related strands of research around the use of argumentation and dialogue for human/machine interaction. These include its use in the context of explanation of program behaviour, as an explanatory mechanism for complex opaque systems such as planners and of computational reasoning process such as Nash equilibria. Finally, I will discuss the role of argumentation in persuasion, examining how user preferences can be learned, and what effect errors in these preferences may have.
