IEA/AIE 2017 Special Track on Applications of Argumentation

We invite submissions of the latest research results concerning applications and theory of computational argumentation to the Special Track on Applications of Argumentation at the 30th International Conference on Industrial, Engineering & Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems (IEA/AIE http://www.cril.univ-artois.fr/ieaaie2017/ ).

Authors are invited to submit their papers in English of up to 10 single spaced pages. Shorter works, up to 6 pages, may be submitted as short papers representing work in progress or suggesting possible research directions. All paper submissions will be done electronically, using Easychair https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ieaaie2017.

All papers will be peer reviewed and final copies of papers for inclusion to the conference proceedings will be published in a bound volume by Springer-Verlag (formatting instructions are available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html ) in their Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series.

The option of organizing a special issue on a journal (likely Argument & Computation) is under consideration.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

• Decision making based on argumentation
• Argumentation in agent and multi-agent systems
• Argumentation for coordination and coalition formation
• Argumentation-based negotiation
• Argumentation, trust and reputation
• Argumentation and human-computer interaction
• Systems for learning through argument
• Implementation of argumentation systems
• Tools for supporting argumentation
• Argumentation and narrative
• Argumentation and computational linguistics
• Argument mining
• Analogical argumentation
• Formal, semi-formal and informal models for argumentation
• Traditional and ranked-based semantics
• Dialogue based on argumentation
• Strategies in argumentation
• Argumentation and game theory
• Argumentation and probability
• Computational properties of argumentation
• Reasoning about action and time with argumentation
