摘要
我们介绍了一种新方法,用于汇总辩论中表达各方观点的双极论证框架。我们使用基于假设的双极性论证(ABA)作为不同语义下双极性论证的包罗万象的形式主义。通过利用社会选择理论中有关判断聚合的最新成果,我们利用配额和寡头规则证明了双极论证相关属性的几个保存结果。具体来说,我们证明了双极 ABA 中无冲突、封闭、可接受、首选、完整、集合稳定、有理有据和理想扩展的保存结果,以及个别假设的可接受性、非循环性和一致性的保存结果(正反面)。最后,我们将结合一个案例研究来说明我们的方法和结果,该案例研究是关于治疗长期慢性病人的意见汇总。
Aggregating bipolar opinions through bipolar assumption-based argumentation
We introduce a novel method to aggregate bipolar argumentation frameworks expressing opinions of different parties in debates. We use Bipolar Assumption-based Argumentation (ABA) as an all-encompassing formalism for bipolar argumentation under different semantics. By leveraging on recent results on judgement aggregation in social choice theory, we prove several preservation results for relevant properties of bipolar ABA using quota and oligarchic rules. Specifically, we prove (positive and negative) results about the preservation of conflict-free, closed, admissible, preferred, complete, set-stable, well-founded and ideal extensions in bipolar ABA, as well as the preservation of acceptability, acyclicity and coherence for individual assumptions. Finally, we illustrate our methodology and results in the context of a case study on opinion aggregation for the treatment of long COVID patients.
