CMNA 9 was held this year in conjunction with IJCAI in Pasadena. Like previous CMNA events that I have attended, there were a number of interesting papers presented as well as plenty of time for discussions.
- Kenneth McLeod, Gus Ferguson and Albert Burger. Using Argumentation to resolve conflict in Biological Databases
- Amin Rahati. Persuasive Argumentation in a Medical Diagnosis Tutoring System
- Douglas Walton. Enthymemes and Argumentation Schemes in Health Product Ads
- Martin O. Moguillansky, Nicolás D. Rotstein, Alejandro J. Garcia, Marcelo A. Falappa and Guillermo R. Simari. Argument Theory Change Through Defeater Activation
- Wassila Ouerdane, Nicolas Maudet and Alexis Tsoukias. Discussing Proof-Standards in the Context of Multicriteria Decision-Aiding
- Helena Lindgren. Clinical Diagnostic Hypothesis Generation and Evaluation as Formal and Natural Argumentation
- Mare Koit. Interaction with the Computer: How to Model Argumentation?
- Simon Wells, Colin Gourlay and Chris Reed. Argument Blogging
- Saul Wyner, Erin Shaw, Taehwan Kim, Jia Li and Jihie Kim. Sentiment Analysis of a Student Q&A Board for Computer Science
- Jakub Gawryjolek, Chrysanne DiMarco and Randy Harris. An Annotation Tool for Automatically Detecting Rhetorical Figures
In summation, one of the nice things about CMNA is the mix of people. Linguists, philosophers, psychologists, and computer scientists mix and I am sure that this mix of researchers leads to some serendipitous collaborations and interesting pieces of joint work.
