Argumentation
Focus: Connection of individual processing components, integration
of data sources and user interaction.

4. 2. Human-machine interaction.
1. Consult: Implementing a chatbot to interact with patients.
• Using argumentation to initially determine which types of
interactions to support (e.g. information-seeking [4]).
2. Supporting the interaction of human participants with a game
system (a DRG) in order to elicit network attack and defence
strategies2

5. 3. Resource Allocation.
CAT platform: another DRG designed to evaluate user-designed
markets by determining their attractiveness to autonomous traders.
Contribution: introducing exchange of advice between traders3
.
Problem:
conflicting advice.
Framing: who do I
allocate my choice
of market to?
def reward ( trader , p r o f i t ) :
rewards [ trader ] = p r o f i t
def selectTrader ( ) :
i f random ( ) > epsilon :
return max( rewards )
else :
return random ( traders )
Solution: ϵ-greedy.
