Similarity Measures based on Compiled Arguments
Résumé
Argumentation is a prominent approach for reasoning with inconsistent information. It is based on the justification of formulas by arguments generated from propositional knowledge bases. It has recently been shown that similarity between arguments should be taken into account when evaluating arguments. Consequently, different similarity measures have been proposed in the literature. Although these measures satisfy desirable properties, they suffer from the side effects of being syntax-dependent. Indeed, they may miss redundant information, leading to undervalued similarity. This paper overcomes this shortcoming by compiling arguments, which amounts to transforming their formulas into clauses, and using the latter for extending existing measures and principles. We show that the new measures deal properly with the critical cases.
