Maximal Specific Arguments in Defeasible Argumentation

Resumen

DeLP (Defeasible Logic Programming) is a defeasible argumentation system that captures common sense reasoning features. Examples proposed in the literature show that DeLP gets counterintuitive results. We suggest a possible cause of this problem and we propose an approach to neutralize it. The approach is based on the pre-selection criterion of arguments, called maximal specificity. The criterion establishes that an argument will be considered like maximally specific only if, for every argument based on more specific evidence which does not explain the same conclusion, it explains neither the contrary nor something more general.
