A fuzzy controller is usually designed by formulating the knowledge of a human expert into a set of linguistic variables and fuzzy rules. As it is well known, the use of prior knowledge can dramatically improve the performance and quality…

The development of systems with the ability to reason about change notion and actions has been of great importance for the artificial intelligence community. The definition and implementation of systems capable of managing defeasible, incomplete, unreliable, or uncertain information has…

The aim of this work is to study an argumentation-based formalism that an agent could use for constructing plans. Elsewhere we have introduced a formalism for agents to represent knowledge about their environment in Defeasible Logic Programming, and a set…

Current interactive multimedia learning software can not be accessed by learners with disabilities. This is the case for students with vision disabilities. Modeling techniques are necessary to map real world experiences to virtual worlds by using 3D auditory representations of…

A multiagent system (MAS) is made up of multiple interacting autonomous agents. It can be viewed as a society in which each agent performs its activity, cooperating to achieve common goals, or competing for them. Thus, every agent has the…

La Plata National University is making a great effort to support and encourage scientific, technologic and artistic research and innovation, maintaining its quality, as well as the development and knowledge transference that benefit society and generate new scientific, technologic and…

Our research project intends to build knowledge about HPC problems to be able to help local researchers. In the general case, researchers who consult us do not own the sources to the parallel programs they run. In order to advise…

Odisea: Discurso y Narrativa, by Graciela Zecchin de Fasano, is the most sophisticated and convincing interpretation known to me concerning the varied and complex roles played by direct speech in Homer’s epic. In this wide-ranging and lucidly written work, Dra.…

Ontology integration is the problem of combining data sources in the SemanticWeb. Concepts in source ontologies are captured in terms of concepts de ned in a global ontology. When some of these ontologies are inconsistent, the knowledge engineer often has…

In this research line we are exploring the possibility of having multiple preference criteria to compare arguments in in Defeasible Argumentation. In this work we are assuming a goaloriented Argumentative System, to which an application or an agent may seek…
