Acceptability semantics and contextual defeat relations in extended frameworks

In this work, contexts for extended argumentation frameworks (EAF) are defined. A context for an EAF is another framework where original arguments, conflicts and preferences are kept, while introducing new arguments leading to new defeat relations. Thus, the context may interfere with the original classification of arguments, inducing new set of extensions. These semantic change in the outcome of an extended framework in a particular context is characterized, and Dung’s acceptability concept is analyzed on this basis.
