Abstract

This paper presents an analogy-based approach to argument evaluation, combining logical analogy, argumentation schemes, and Szymanek’s explanation transmission method to assess the strength of arguments. The proposed framework introduces Strong Argument Schemes (SAS), which represent idealized argument structures incorporating the best possible answers to critical questions called critical premises. The method allows for systematically comparing and evaluating argument strength by mapping actual arguments to these strong schemes. This approach addresses limitations in traditional critical question-based evaluations and provides a unified procedure for assessing defeasible arguments.

基于类比的论证评价方法

本文提出了一种基于类比的论证评价方法，结合逻辑类比、论证方案和西曼内克的解释传递法来评估论证的强度。提出的框架引入了强论证方案（SAS），它代表了理想化的论证结构，其中包含了对称为关键前提的关键问题的最佳可能答案。该方法允许通过将实际论证映射到这些强方案来系统地比较和评估论证强度。这种方法解决了传统的基于问题的批判性评估的局限性，并提供了一个统一的程序来评估可行的论点。
