Abstract

We describe a tool for providing explanation of plans to non-technical users, built on formal argumentation and dialogue theory, and supported by natural language generation and visualisation technologies. We describe how arguments can be generated from domain rules, and how justified arguments can be identified through dialogue, allowing the system to use such a dialogue to explain a plan. We provide information about our prototype system implementation, discussing its current limitations, and identifying potential avenues for future research.
