Abstract

Abstract dialectical frameworks (ADFs) constitute one of the most powerful formalismsin abstract argumentation. Their high computational complexity poses, however, certainchallenges when designing efficient systems. In this paper, we tackle this issue by(i) analyzing the complexity of ADFs under structural restrictions, (ii) presenting novelalgorithms which make use of these insights, and (iii) implementing these algorithms via(multiple) calls to SAT solvers. An empirical evaluation of the resulting implementationon ADF benchmarks generated from ICCMA competitions shows that our solver is able tooutperform state-of-the-art ADF systems
