Computation of skeptical outputs in P-DeLP satisfying indirect consistency: a level-based approach

Teresa Alsinet, Carlos I. Chesñevar, Lluís Godo

Recent research has identified the notion of indirect consistency as a rationality postulate that every rule-based argumentation frameworks should satisfy. Possibilistic Defeasible Logic Programming (PDeLP) is an argumentation framework based on logic programming which incorporates a treatment of possibilistic uncertainty at object-language level, in which indirect consistency does not hold. In this paper we consider a novel approach to computing warranted arguments in P-DeLP which ensures the above rationality postulate and we describe a procedure to effectively compute them.
