Cautious Monotonicity in Case-Based Reasoning with Abstract Argumentation
Recently, abstract argumentation-based models of case-based reasoning ($AA{\text -}CBR$ in short) have been proposed, originally inspired by the legal domain, but also applicable as classifiers in different scenarios, including image classification, sentiment analysis of text, and in predicting the passage of bills in the UK Parliament. However, the formal properties of $AA{\text -}CBR$ as a reasoning system remain largely unexplored. In this paper, we focus on analysing the non-monotonicity properties of a regular version of $AA{\text -}CBR$ (that we call $AA{\text -}CBR_{\succeq}$). Specifically, we prove that $AA{\text -}CBR_{\succeq}$ is not cautiously monotonic, a property frequently considered desirable in the literature of non-monotonic reasoning. We then define a variation of $AA{\text -}CBR_{\succeq}$ which is cautiously monotonic, and provide an algorithm for obtaining it. Further, we prove that such variation is equivalent to using $AA{\text -}CBR_{\succeq}$ with a restricted casebase consisting of all "surprising" cases in the original casebase.

Abstract ArgumentationAbstract Argumentation and the Rational Man
Abstract argumentation has emerged as a method for non-monotonic reasoning that has gained popularity in the symbolic artificial intelligence community. In the literature, the different approaches to abstract argumentati…

Abstract ArgumentationInterpretable Machine LearningTechnical Report on the Learning of Case Relevance in Case-Based Reasoning with Abstract Argumentation
Case-based reasoning is known to play an important role in several legal settings. In this paper we focus on a recent approach to case-based reasoning, supported by an instantiation of abstract argumentation whereby argu…
