Using Defeasible Logic Programming with Contextual Queries for Developing Recommender Servers
Tucat, Mariano (UNS - CONICET) | Garcia, Alejandro Javier (UNS - CONICET) | Simari, Guillermo Ricardo (UNS)
In this work we introduce a defeasible logic programming recommender server that accepts different types of queries from client agents that can be distributed in remote hosts. We formalize new ways of querying recommender servers containing specific information or preferences, and creating a particular context for the queries. This special type of queries (called contextual queries) allows recommender servers to compute recommendations for any client using its preferences, and will be answered using an argumentative inference mechanism. We focus on a particular implementation of recommended systems that extends the integration of argumentation and recommender systems to a multi-agent setting. Our approach is based on a DeLP-server that can answer queries from agents in remote hosts. Since client agents can consult different domain specific recommender servers, then, multiple configurations of clients and servers can be defined.
Argumentation Systems and Agent Programming Languages
Gottifredi, Sebastian (UNS) | Garcia, Alejandro Javier (UNS) | Simari, Guillermo Ricardo (UNS)
In this work we will present an integration of a query-answering argumentation approach with an abstract agent programming language. Agents will argumentatively reason via queries, using information of their mental components. Special context-based queries will be used to model the interaction between mental components. Deliberation and execution semantics of the proposed integration are presented.
