Citation: "This paper deals with a novel issue: how the fact that different agents may give different meanings to words affects the well-known result that agents with a common prior probability distribution cannot agree to disagree. The topic is original, the results are deep, and the idea developed in the paper is powerful and of interest to researchers in KR, in economics, and beyond."
Distinguished Student Paper Prize:
Complexity-Sensitive Decision Procedures for Abstract ArgumentationWolfgang Dvorak, Matti Jarvisalo, Johannes Peter Wallner and Stefan Woltran - photo
Citation: "This paper is sort of a perfect paper - it has theory, new ideas, algorithmic hints, and even experimentation, all in the same paper. It is beautiful to read while full of technical content. I am ready to hire the authors when they get their PhDs, said one committee member."
