11 - 13 October 2021, Third Workshop on Argument Strength (ArgStrength2021), Hagen (Germany) or Virtual

Date: 11 - 13 October 2021
Location: Hagen (Germany) or Virtual
Deadline: Monday 19 July 2021

Arguments vary in strength. The strength of an argument is affected by e.g. the plausibility of its premises, the nature of the link between its premises and conclusion, and the prior acceptability of the conclusion. The aim of this workshop is to bring together experts from the fields of artificial intelligence, philosophy, logic, and argumentation theory to discuss questions related to the strength of arguments.

Originally planned for 2020 in Koblenz, Germany, after consideration the organizers decided to postpone the workshop in light of the current COVID-19 crisis, and hold it online.

We solicit abstracts, which have to be in English and formatted according to the Springer LNCS style. Extended abstracts (2 pages max., including references) can report on research in progress or other issues of interest. Submissions are handled through the EasyChair conference management system.
