The AMANDE (Advanced Multilateral Argumentation for DEliberation) project aims at providing formal
tools for designing multiparty deliberation systems. The main objective is to define and study the properties
of such systems, so that designers can ensure that users and possibly interacting agents are able to identify
key arguments in a deliberation process, and to fairly defend their view. While the technological tools are
now available to deploy such systems, we believe there is now an urgent need to work
on the theoretical foundations of such platforms.

Our main ambition with this project is to provide the theoretical foundations allowing a
designer to:
#Support multiparty deliberation, allowing for instance to fairly regulate a debate and avoid manipulation, to assess the status of a given claim, or to emphasize the critical claims put forward so far.
#Analyse multiparty deliberation, allowing for instance to identify key arguments, the most influential contributors, or the possible coalitions.
#Enable artificial agents to effectively take part in such deliberations, which raises in addition questions pertaining to the adequate definitions of strategies for such agents.

!Theoretical foundations for the analysis and design of deliberating systems based on argumentation

!!!Objective : Theoretical foundations for the aggregation of arguments coming from multiple sources
Debating and exchanging arguments is a fundamental human activity, studied for a long time. But considering that it is already difficult to evaluate which of two debaters was the most convincing, how can we handle debates where participants can be counted in dozens, even more? Online deliberation platforms makes this prospect real: on such platforms, pieces of information (more or less credible) are exchanged in order to build up a "collective opinion". These pieces of information can be arguments, but people may also vote on arguments put forward by other parties.
How can we make sense of this constellation of viewpoints? Is there any well-founded method to aggregate them, to analyze the resulting debates (for instance, so as to single out the best justified ones?). And in a normative perspective, can we conceive and design systems enjoying good properties (that the debate evolved correctly, that the viewpoints were fairly represented, that the outcome reached was satisfying for all the parties, etc.)

!!!Methodology : Abstract argumentation frameworks.
Argumentation is a complex process, involving a number of factors (in particular, the actual linguistic form that arguments take, or the psychological aspects involved in the interaction). The approach taken in this project is to abstract away from these aspects to study instead the structure of debates (how arguments relate to each others): we use the expression 'abstract argumentation frameworks' to express this. This is for sure a strong assumption, but this structural analysis proves to be very rich, and potentially complementary from other approaches focused on the content of arguments. By using logical approaches, graph theory, or even game and social choice theory, we have access to several methods allowing to analyze debates, but also to help to design better debating platforms. Indeed, results can be either descriptive (analyzing existing debates which occurred), but also normative, thus providing guidelines allowing to build platforms with better properties.

!!!Main results.
In the context of this project, we have developed new approaches for the aggregation of arguments and judgments, based on notions of votes' support, and clarified the connection with belief merging. In particular, we have contributed to new methods allowing to rank the arguments of a debate. We have proposed new operators to model the dynamics of argumentation systems, together with their logical encoding. We have also studied the algorithmic aspects of these questions, contributing in particular to the CoQuiaas solver, which won the first place at the International Competition on Computational Models of Arguments.

!!!Scientific output.
The members of the project have published more than 50 international papers, including 10+ in international journals, and a best paper prize at the International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS-16). These results have been widely made available to the community through dedicated workshops and courses in Summer schools. Two software contributions resulted from the project: the CoQuiaas solver (which arguments are acceptable?), and the SESAME platform to specify argumentation semantics (how to define this notion of acceptability?).

!!!Admins facts.
The AMANDE is a basic research project, coordinated by Nicolas Maudet, Sébastien Konieczny and Elise Bonzon, involving several labs: LIP6 (Sorbonne Université), CRIL (Université d'Artois), de IRIT (Université de Toulouse), LAMSADE (Université Paris-Dauphine), with members LIPADE (Université Paris-Descartes) participating as well. The project started in December 2013, for 48 months, and was extended to 58 months. It benefited from the support of ANR (320K euros), as well as from the additional support (32K euros) of FRAE (Fondation de Recherche pour l'Aéronautique et l'Espace).

Débattre et échanger des arguments est une activité humaine fondamentale, étudiée de longue date. Mais s'il est parfois difficile de savoir qui de deux participant-e-s fut le ou la plus convaincante, imaginez la situation lorsque les intervenant-e-s se comptent par dizaine, voire plus.
L'avènement de plateformes de délibération permet d'organiser de tels débats à large échelle.  Sur ces plateformes de débats en ligne, divers éléments d'information -positifs ou négatifs, plus ou moins crédibles-, sont avancés pour tenter d'établir une « opinion collective ». Ces éléments peuvent être des arguments, mais également des votes sur les arguments proposés par d'autres.
Comment faire sens de cette multitude de points de vue? Existe-t-il de bonnes méthodes pour agréger les échanges de ces débats, en permettre l’analyse pour, par exemple, faire ressortir les points de vue les plus solidement argumentés? Et dans une perspective normative, peut-on envisager de concevoir des systèmes dotés de bonnes propriétés (déroulement correct du débat, représentation équitable des différents points de vue, solution satisfaisante pour toutes les parties atteinte, etc.)

Argumentation is at the heart of deliberation processes since people generally justify their positions and
opinions by arguments. Since the early nineties, argumentation theory is studied in AI. The main limitation
of existing works on argumentation theory is that they are mostly concerned by a unique agent carrying on
an argumentation/deliberation process from its available information (even if some works use the metaphor
of dialectical proofs). Our aim is to define a genuine multilateral theory of argumentation, involving
potentially many agents, where each agent has her own information (arguments, beliefs, goals, etc.). For that
purpose, we will take advantage of different formal tools, especially those developed in economy for
modeling group interaction and decision processes, such as social choice (vote), game theory, and also works
on logical aggregation such as belief merging and judgment aggregation. We will study how to define a
common point of view regarding an argument from a set of argumentation systems. This will require to
develop specific methods, but more importantly to define and study the expected properties of such methods.
Once this notion of rational output will be understood, it will be important to try to distribute the process to
obtain a more realistic debate framework with autonomous agents. Then the questions will be to know
whether such rational output can be reached in the distributed case and which are the obtained rational
properties. We shall also consider individual strategic behaviour (especially in the perspective of
implementing autonomous entities), and we will in particular study if and how an agent can manage to
manipulate the deliberation process. Similarly we shall consider group behaviours and study how coalition of
agents can emerge.

An important application with great potential impact is related to debate systems that are emerging on the
we; see for instance %newwin%[[http://idebate.org/debatabase|Debatebase]] and %newwin%[[http://debategraph.org|DebateGraph]]. The success of these platforms in their currrent form seems to suggest that they can
become an important source of information, just as wikipedia is now. For instance, DebateGraph was used to
produce maps for the British newspaper “The Independent” and talk shows on CNN, and is supported by the
White House, the European Commission, and other institutions. These debate systems are still in their
infancy though. For the moment they are mainly interfaces where people can give arguments pro or con a
given issue without any particular processing and evaluation of those arguments. The AMANDE project will
provide automatic reasoning/decision capabilities to these platforms.

The AMANDE (Advanced Multilateral Argumentation for DEliberation) project aims at providing formal
tools for designing multiparty deliberation systems. The main objective is to define and study the properties
of such systems, so that designers can ensure that users and possibly interacting agents are able to identify
key arguments in a deliberation process, and to fairly defend their view. While the technological tools are
now available to deploy such systems (see last paragraph), we believe there is now an urgent need to work
on the theoretical foundations of such platforms.


Argumentation is at the heart of deliberation processes since people generally justify their positions and
opinions by arguments. Since the early nineties, argumentation theory is studied in AI. The main limitation
of existing works on argumentation theory is that they are mostly concerned by a unique agent carrying on
an argumentation/deliberation process from its available information (even if some works use the metaphor
of dialectical proofs). Our aim is to define a genuine multilateral theory of argumentation, involving
potentially many agents, where each agent has her own information (arguments, beliefs, goals, etc.). For that
purpose, we will take advantage of different formal tools, especially those developed in economy for
modeling group interaction and decision processes, such as social choice (vote), game theory, and also works
on logical aggregation such as belief merging and judgment aggregation. We will study how to define a
common point of view regarding an argument from a set of argumentation systems. This will require to
develop specific methods, but more importantly to define and study the expected properties of such methods.
Once this notion of rational output will be understood, it will be important to try to distribute the process to
obtain a more realistic debate framework with autonomous agents. Then the questions will be to know
whether such rational output can be reached in the distributed case and which are the obtained rational
properties. We shall also consider individual strategic behaviour (especially in the perspective of
implementing autonomous entities), and we will in particular study if and how an agent can manage to
manipulate the deliberation process. Similarly we shall consider group behaviours and study how coalition of
agents can emerge.


More precisely, our main ambition with this project is to provide the theoretical foundations allowing a
designer to :
# Support multiparty deliberation, allowing for instance to fairly regulate a debate and avoid
manipulation, to assess the status of a given claim, or to emphasize the critical claims put forward so
far.
# Analyse multiparty deliberation, allowing for instance to identify key arguments, the most influential
contributors, or the possible coalitions.
# Enable artificial agents to effectively take part in such deliberations, which raises in addition
questions pertaining to the adequate definitions of strategies for such agents.


An important application with great potential impact is related to debate systems that are emerging on the
web (see for instance Debatepedia (http://debatepedia.idebate.org/) and DebateGraph
(http://debategraph.org/). The success of these platforms in their currrent form seems to suggest that they can
become an important source of information, just as wikipedia is now. For instance, DebateGraph was used to
produce maps for the British newspaper “The Independent” and talk shows on CNN, and is supported by the
White House, the European Commission, and other institutions. These debate systems are still in their
infancy though. For the moment they are mainly interfaces where people can give arguments pro or con a
given issue without any particular processing and evaluation of those arguments. The AMANDE project will
provide automatic reasoning/decision capabilities to these platforms.
