Interest-Based Repair of Conflicting Requirements Using Argumentation

Interest-based-repair is a kind of Interest-Based Recommendation strategy that enhances recommendations. It allows automated user and recommender agents to ask for the implicit underlying goal (of seeking and providing recommendations). This leads to proposing repairs and alternative plan(s) which may entail an acceptance on alternative issues with higher satisfaction. Therefore, this paper (i) proposes a recommendation protocol that support both recommendations and interest-based repair using argumentation, (ii) various strategies used by a user and recommender agent, to generate interesting recommendations and (iii) a comparative analysis to show that how these strategies enhance recommendation technology.
