Abstract

Computer Science Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence Computer Science, Interdisciplinary Applications Science & Technology Technology
Argumentation can be used by a group of agents to discuss about the validity of hypotheses. In this paper we propose an argumentation-based framework for multiagent induction, where two agents learn separately from individual training sets, and then engage in an argumentation process in order to converge to a common hypothesis about the data. The result is a multiagent induction strategy in which the agents minimize the set of examples that they have to exchange (using argumentation) in order to converge to a shared hypothesis. The proposed strategy works for any induction algorithm which expresses the hypothesis as a set of rules. We show that the strategy converges to a hypothesis indistinguishable in training set accuracy from that learned by a centralized strategy.
