Applying Abstract Argumentation to Normal-Form Games

You Cheng, Beishui Liao, Jieting Luo

Abstract: Game theory is the most common approach to studying strategic interactions between agents, but it provides little explanation for game-theoretical solution concepts. In this paper, we use a game-based argumentation framework to solve normal-form games. The result is that solution concepts in game theory can be interpreted by extensions of a game-based argumentation framework. We can use our framework to solve normal-form games, providing explanation for solution concepts.
