An Analysis on Critical Questions for Plan Proposals

Rolando Medellin-Gasque, Katie Atkinson, and Trevor Bench-Capon


Abstract

In order to create a comprehensive dialogue game for autonomous agents to engage in rational debate over plans we present in this report a list of critical questions that match an argumentation scheme for plan proposals. Questions are grouped in seven categories that focus on the level of detail of the plan proposal. The critical questions are formalized in terms of an Action-based Alternating Transition system where applicable.
