Humans currently use arguments for explaining choices which are already made, or for evaluating potential choices. Each potential choice has usually pros and cons of various strengths. In spite of the usefulness of arguments in a decision…

It is notoriously difficult to control the behavior of reinforcement learning agents. Agents often learn to exploit the environment or reward signal and need to be retrained multiple times. The multi-objective reinforcement learning (MORL)…

When designing agents for operation in uncertain environments, designers need tools to automatically reason about what agents ought to do, how that conflicts with what is actually happening, and how a policy might be modified to remove the…
