The document is an abstract of handouts for the IJCAI 2017 tutorial on argumentation, detailing various technical definitions and principles related to argumentation frameworks and their semantics. It draws from a range of publications and includes contributions from multiple researchers, addressing topics such as conflict-free sets, acceptability of arguments, and various semantics like grounded and preferred extensions. The material is cited thoroughly and aims to provide foundational knowledge rather than a comprehensive overview of two decades of research.
