Decision Support & Argumentation Argumentation : ◮ Mono-agent: reasoning ◮ Multi-agent: interaction (debate) Problem : ◮ People are not necessarily rational ◮ People are not necessarily cooperative Which means : ◮ People can be persuaded by “bad” arguments ◮ People can try to manipulate (fallacious arguments, lies, etc.) ⇒ Protection of deliberation from “bad processes” Pierre Bisquert AgreenSkills October 12th 2015 4 / 7
The Democracy Problem Deliberation may not lead to unanimity ⇒ Vote Voting procedure that retains the quality ⇒ Democracy Social choice & democracy ◮ Universality ◮ Unanimity ◮ Independence of irrelevant alternatives ◮ Non-dictatorship Pierre Bisquert AgreenSkills October 12th 2015 5 / 7
The Democracy Problem Deliberation may not lead to unanimity ⇒ Vote Voting procedure that retains the quality ⇒ Democracy Social choice & democracy ◮ Universality ◮ Unanimity ◮ Independence of irrelevant alternatives ◮ Non-dictatorship Arrow’s impossibility theorem : “There is no social choice function (no voting procedure) that satisfies the previous axioms.” Pierre Bisquert AgreenSkills October 12th 2015 5 / 7
Research Project With a little bit of ◮ Argumentation theory ◮ Social choice ◮ Logic ◮ Psychology Is it possible to define a protocol that will ◮ Detect the negative argumentative processes ◮ Protect the deliberators ◮ Provide a reliable and democratic voting procedure In order to have a high-quality decision? ⇒ Destination : Logic and Computation team (ILLC, Amsterdam) ◮ Ulle Endriss Pierre Bisquert AgreenSkills October 12th 2015 6 / 7
