Resumen:
In this paper, we present the formalization and implementation of a decision framework in which a group of agents can express their preferences among a set of alternatives by using several comparison criteria. We define special kind of argument to support agents’ preferences, and the set of generated arguments is used both to obtain the set of selected alternatives and to explain why they were selected. We introduce a software application that implements our proposed approach and provides interactive tools for obtaining different kinds of explanations for the computed results. Also, we formally study the proposed argumentation process and we prove that the set of warranted conclusions, which support the obtained results, is consistent. We also show that our framework works properly on choice scenarios with incomplete evidence, and we propose how to optimize the computation process for dynamic environments.
