I am a postdoctoral research
assistant working on the Dialectical Argumentation Machines
project. My main
interests concern
computational and philosophical aspects of argumentation in
various
domains, such as multi-agent systems and legal reasoning. I am
currently looking at the connection between argumentative dialogue
and
argument structure, the connections between different (logical and
non-logical) argumentation frameworks and the role of narratives
in
argumentation.
I have a masters degree in
Cognitive AI from Utrecht University. In 2009, I obtained my PhD
degree
at the Centre for Law and ICT in Groningen (the Netherlands), with
a
dissertation titled Evidence for a Good
Story: A Hybrid Theory of Arguments, Stories and Criminal Evidence. A summary of my dissertation is
available here.
The dissertation was published by Springer in 2011.
