Abstract: We introduce algorithms that decide arguments’ acceptance in Dung’s system of argumentation. Under \emph{preferred} semantics, there might be various extensions of acceptable arguments, and hence, the acceptance problem is concerned with deciding whether a given argument is in an extension or in all extensions. The new algorithms decide the acceptance without truly enumerating all extensions. This is of interest in situations where the acceptance problem is confined to a specific argument while the underlying argument system changes frequently such as in a dialog setting. We analyze our algorithms in contrast to existing algorithms. Consistent with experimental results, we argue that the new algorithms are more efficient with respect to running time.
