This paper summarizes the main results developed in the author's PhD Thesis.
The main goal of the Thesis is to provide a formalization of defeasible argumentation oriented towards its computational treatment. In order to do this, an LDS-based logical framework…

Current reasoning systems attempt to model an agent's knowledge and interaction with its environment in a symbolic manner. This environment, its world is generally dynamic and changing due to natural evolution or the actions of other agents that are a…

The goal of this work involves the developing of an argumentation-based formalism that an agent could use for constructing plans. In this formalism, agents will have certain knowledge about the world, and a set of actions that they will be…

El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar los signos y profecías de Eneida lII entendidos como medio de comunicación del fatum entre dioses y hombres y, en consecuencia, inscriptos en el arte de la divinatio. Se analizan los anuncios de…

The design of intelligent agents is a key issue for many applications. Although there is no universally accepted de nition of intelligence, a notion of rational agency has been proposed as an alternative for the characterization of intelligent agency.
Modeling…

Las distintas cuestiones vinculadas al traspaso de las tierras públicas a manos particulares (en usufructo y en propiedad plena) en la campaña bonaerense del siglo XIX han suscitado el interés de diversos investigadores que, a partir de estudios de casos…

El color es un carácter de calidad de gran importancia en trigo candeal. Este cereal es utilizado en la elaboración de pastas secas (vermicelli, spaghetti y macarroni) y frescas. El color amarillo brillante, requerido en los granos y productos de…

Este trabalho mostra uma forma de pensar concorrente. São utilizados algoritmos de grafos, algoritmo do menor caminho, para mostrar desde a especificação até a implementação de algoritmos concorrentes. Objetiva-se mostrar uma outra forma de ensinar a concorrência, sua teoria, propriedades…

This paper addresses the problem of contour line extraction from scanned topographic maps in poor condition. A novel method is developed, using knowledge of cartography and graphics to extract contours by removing other layers which overlay the contours, and reconstructing…

Artificial Intelligence has long dealt with the issue of finding a suitable formalization for reasoning with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. Defeasible argumentation [SL92,CML00,PraVre99] has proven to be a successful approach in many respects, since it naturally resembles many aspects…
