Most Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems traditionally use a sequential architecture that represents the classical linguistic levels (lexical-morphological, syntactical, semantic, etc.), but they claim for huge and monolithic modules, that make the backtracking among such modules difficult. By using a…

In this work two declarative approaches based on the BDI theory are studied, an agent programming language 3APL and an agent architecture that uses defeasible argumentation for knowledge representation and reasoning. Based on that study and considering that in 3APL…

This article presents the confluence of two general ideas: Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP, an argumentation based formalism for representing knowledge and reasoning) and Abduction in logic. In first place, we introduce a framework that formally states the problem of doing…
