Abstract

Change in argumentation frameworks has been widely studied in the recent years. Most of the existing works on this topic are concerned with change of the structure of the argumentation graph (addition or removal of arguments and attacks), or change of the outcome of the framework (acceptance statuses of arguments). Change on the acceptability semantics that is used in the framework has not received much attention so far. Such a change can be motivated by different reasons, especially it is a way to change the outcome of the framework. In this paper, it is shown how semantic change can be used as a way to reach a goal about acceptance statuses in a situation of extension enforcement.

1
This function is called characteristic function by [22]. We call it defense function to avoid confusion with the characteristics from [5].
 
2
The Hamming distance between two graphs \(F_1 = \langle A_1, R_1 \rangle \) and \(F_2 = \langle A_2, R_2 \rangle \) is the cardinality of the symmetric difference between \(R_1\) and \(R_2\); in other words, in the present case, it is the number of attacks that it is necessary to add/remove from one graph to get the other.
 
3
Since here \(\mathcal {F},\mathcal {F}'\) are singletons, the Hamming distance between graphs can be directly used. For other kinds of change operators, it should be generalized to multisets.

Pakota also provides the possibility to execute enforcement under the preferred semantics. Because of the higher complexity of the enforcement problem under the preferred semantics, our experiment has encountered a high number of timeouts. For this reason, we exclude preferred semantics of our empirical analysis for now.

A complete description and analysis of our experiments, including the instances, the enforcement system, and the curves for every value of |A| and every pair \((\sigma _1,\sigma _2)\) is available online: http://​www.​math-info.​univ-paris5.​fr/​~jmailly/​expSemChange.
