Bipolar Argumentation (Cayrol & Lagasquie-Schiex) — adds a support relation alongside
attack and derives the complex attacks it induces (deductive-support semantics):
Dynamic argument-generation engine — build a Dung framework directly from raw deontic / LTL
trace verdicts. Each verdict becomes an argument concluding a signed literal; verdicts with
complementary conclusions (same literal, opposite polarity) attack each other. This is the
bridge from the engine’s modal/deontic traces into abstract argumentation, so a conflict in
the trace becomes a resolvable debate.
Value-based Argumentation Frameworks (Bench-Capon) — attacks succeed only when the attacker’s
value is not less preferred than the target’s. This lets a human-rights hierarchy decide
conflicts: an attack from a less-important value cannot defeat an argument grounded in a
more-important (e.g. non-derogable) right. The result projects to a standard Dung framework of
successful defeats, over which the usual semantics apply.
Zero-heap Dung (1995) grounded-extension membership test over caller-supplied,
bounded argument and attack arrays. Returns whether goal is justified (in the
grounded extension). No allocation — fixed stack buffers only; suitable for the
Webizen VM hot path. (ArgumentationFramework::grounded_extension is the
heap-using batch variant for the cold path.)
