Since then, there was still no solver\nimplemented in a programming language which is easy to setup and no solver have\nbeen interfaced to the web, which impedes the interests of the public. This\nproject aims to implement an ABA solver in a modern programming language that\nperforms reasonably well and interface it to the web for easier access by the\npublic. This project has demonstrated the novelty of development of an ABA\nsolver, that computes conflict-free, stable, admissible, grounded, ideal, and\ncomplete semantics, in Python programming language which can be used via an\neasy-to-use web interface for visualization of the argument and dispute trees.\nExperiments were conducted to determine the project's best configurations and\nto compare this project with proxdd, a state-of-the-art ABA solver, which has\nno web interface and computes less number of semantics. From the results of the\nexperiments, this project's best configuration is achieved by utilizing\n\"pickle\" technique and tree caching technique. Using this project's best\nconfiguration, this project achieved a lower average runtime compared to\nproxdd. On other aspect, this project encountered more cases with exceptions\ncompared to proxdd, which might be caused by this project computing more\nsemantics and hence requires more resources to do so. Hence, it can be said\nthat this project run comparably well to the state-of-the-art ABA solver\nproxdd. Future works of this project include computational complexity analysis\nand efficiency analysis of algorithms implemented, implementation of more\nsemantics in argumentation framework, and usability testing of the web\ninterface.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1612.04469v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1612.04469v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"web-based-argumentation","repo_url":"https://github.com/kenrick95/aba-web","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
