Preface
This volume contains the papers presented at AI3 2019∗ : the 3rd Workshop on
Advances In Argumentation In Artificial Intelligence, co-located with 18th Inter-
national Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AI∗IA
2019) held in Rende, on the 19th and 20th of November 2019. This workshop
is promoted by the Argumentation in Artificial Intelligence Working Group∗∗ .
    Argumentation is the study of processes and activities involving the produc-
tion and exchange of arguments, where arguments are reasons for accepting
or refuting a particular conclusion or claim. As such, argumentation provides
procedures for making and explaining decisions and is able to capture diverse
kinds of reasoning and dialogue activities in a formal but still intuitive way.
Over the last two decades formal argumentation has become a main research
topic in Artificial Intelligence. Given that the study of argumentation is inher-
ently interdisciplinary, the goal of the workshop was to stimulate discussions
and promote scientific collaboration among scholars from different disciplines,
including computer science, philosophy, psychology, and computational linguis-
tic. At its third edition, this workshop aims to bring together Italian researchers
in Italy and abroad, and scholars from around the world to strengthen a group
identity and shared interests in the field of argumentation. A wide set of topics
were discussed during the workshop, including foundations in argumentation
as well as challenges and real-world problems for which argumentation may
represent a viable AI-paradigm.
    Each submission underwent a single-blind peer-review process and each pa-
per was reviewed by at least 3 reviewers. The workshop involved 13 papers
accepted for oral presentation, an account of which is given in this volume,
and an invited talk. These papers dealt with various aspects of argumentation
including novel approaches for computing the acceptability of arguments, prob-
abilisitic and dynamic argumentation, argument mining, collection and chal-
lenges with natural language argumentation, as well as practical applications
and argument representation in real-world contexts.
    We would like to express our special thanks to the Program Committee mem-
bers, the authors and all the attendees.
