Jeux de dialogue : formalisation, gestion, terminaison et succès

http://www.di.unipi.it/~morge/publis/morge04agental.pdfInternational audienceDans cet article, nous présentons un modèle formel pour les dialogues argumentatifs entre agents. La notion de jeu de dialogue est formalisée à l'aide d'un ensemble de règles de séquençage décrivant les réponses possibles à un message. Nous proposons ici un jeu de demande d'information et un jeu de persuasion. La terminaison de tels dialogues est garantie dans tout les cas de figure. A l'inverse, certaines hypothèses sur la situation informationnelle initiale des participants sont nécessaires pour garantir que les buts de ces dialogues sont atteints

Computer-supported collaborative argumentation

http://www.di.unipi.it/~morge/publis/morge04cnma.pdfInternational audienceIn this paper, we propose a computer-supported collaborative argumentation for the public debate. For this purpose, we use the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), that can be viewed as an argumentation-based decision-making process, to help stakeholders to build an argumentation schema and to express preferences about it. Considering this multi-criteria decision-making as an argumentationbased decision-making, we construct a dialogue system of agents with reasoning abilities to support the group decision. Each user is assisted by an agent representing him in automated dialogues. Therefore, the system provides tools for the collaborative development of the argumentation schemas on one hand and to check the consistency or the inconsistency among preferences between two users allowing the conflicts and the consensus seeking on the other hand

A dialectics system in which argumentative agents play and arbitrate to reach an agreement

http://www.di.unipi.it/~morge/publis/morge05aail.pdfInternational audienceWe propose in this paper a formal framework in which agents arbitrate and play to reach an agreement. The argumentationbased reasoning manages the con icts between arguments having di erent strengths for di erent agents. The argumentative agents justify the hypothesis to which they commit and take into account the commitments of their interlocutors. A third agent is responsible of the nal decision outcome which is taken by resolving the con ict between two players according to their competence

Argumentation sur les motivations propres dans l'architecture V3A pour des agents auto-adaptatifs

http://www.di.unipi.it/~morge/publis/morge08jfsma.pdfInternational audienceAdoptant l'approche Voyelles, l'architecture d'agents V3A (Vowels Agent Argumentation Architecture) est un modèle d'agent à travers lequel un agent autonome débat en interne afin de gérer ses motivations. La personnalité de l'agent résout les éventuels conflits entre ses différentes motivations et dicte son comportement. À l'aide de cette architecture modulaire, nous sommes en mesure de développer des agents auto-adaptatifs capables de remplacer automatiquement leurs composants. Nous proposons ici une technique d'argumentation pour mettre en oeuvre le processus dialectique interne via un jeu de dialogue entre ces composants. Notre cadre est illustré à l'aide d'un scénario où un agent s'adapte automatiquement au contexte d'exécution

A Negotiation Support System based on a Multi-agent System speci city and preference relations on arguments

http://www.di.unipi.it/~morge/publis/morge04sac.pdfInternational audienceIn this paper, we propose a Negotiation Support System based on a Multi-agent System. Each agent assists a user in multi-criteria decision making and negotiates according to this decision-modelling with other agents, each of them representing a user. Moreover agents assist users in the debate to negotiate a joint representation of the problem and automatically justify proposals with this joint representation

Software components for a dialogue multiagent system

Practical Application of Matchmaking Problem: Trainee Allocation for Teachers

International audienceIn this paper, we tackle a complex real-world problem: trainee allocation for primary school teachers in a French teaching Academy. This complex real-world problem can be reduced into the well- known Hospitals / Residents (HR) problem. However, the most difficult part consists of generating the preference lists according to the real con- straints, priorities and wishes. Additionally, we adapt the Swing method to the HR problem and we apply it to this real-world problem in order to balance the different objectives. In this way, the Swing method decreases the management cost of the operation

A dialogue game for agent resolving conflicts by verbal means

http://www.win.tue.nl/~evink/lcmas-2004-esslli.pdfInternational audienceWe present in this paper a formal framework for argumentation- based dialogues between agents. These latter manage the dialogues with the help of three components: an argumentative component to generate arguments, a social component to interprete arguments, and a conventional component to manage the sequence of coherent moves. We formalize the notion of dialogue-game to address the gap between individual moves and the extended sequence of coherent moves that arise between agents. The moves are not associated with an intention, however the dialogues have a goal
