Abstract

Assumption-Based Argumentation (ABA) is a form of structured argumentation with roots in non-monotonic reasoning. As in other forms of structured argumentation, notions of argument and attack are not primitive in ABA, but are instead defined in terms of other notions. In the case of ABA these other n...
