The Semantic Web purports to give computeraccessible meaning to the content of the World Wide Web. The rationale behind this project is to create an environment where all this information could be freely exchanged among diverse entities, yet retaining its…

This paper discusses questions about communication of probabilistic knowledge in the light of current theories of agent communication. It will argue that there is a semantic gap between these theories and research areas related to probabilistic knowledge representation and communication,…

It is interesting and important to compare, analyze and assess the alternative tools that could be used in the area of Knowledge Representation. In this paper we present a reasearch line associated to this goal: to formally establish the relation…

Defeasible argumentation is one of the approaches that attempt to address the challenges arising when we reason defeasibly, with several formalisms in the literature reaching a mature state. Nowadays, several of them started shifting their semantics towards a dialectical characterization.…

El artículo recuerda los intentos de sistematización de saberes anteriores al Romanticismo y recapitula la evolución de la historiografía literaria durante los siglos XIX y XX para presentar después algunas reflexiones metodológicas con respecto a la clasificación de obras literarias…

Me propongo analizar y discutir algunos resultados de una investigación etnográfica desarrollada en comunidades Mbya Guaraníes (Misiones, Argentina) acerca de las representaciones y prácticas relacionadas con la crianza y el desarrollo infantil.
En este trabajo caracterizo las categorías, representaciones y…

Este trabajo pretende descubrir una proximidad sistemática entre el pensamiento de Nicolás de Cusa y el idealismo alemán, en particular, en torno a la noción de "visio intellectualis" entendida en el plano teórico del conocimiento. Pretende demostrar que lo que…

The accomplishment of systems with abilities to reason about actions and change and systems that can manage incomplete or not very reliable information with abilities to discuss or argument has been of great importance for artificial intelligence community. These two…

The area of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning has been enriched during the past two decades with the addition of Argument-Based Reasoning Systems. Defeat between arguments is established by a combination of two basic elements: a conflict or defeat relation, and…

Artificial Intelligence deals with the challenge of modeling commonsense reasoning. In the last fifteen years argument-based systems have came forward to meet this challenge as knowledge representation and reasoning tools able to model incomplete and conflicting information. We believe that…
