Research Type Experimental We establish a complete computational complexity map of the central computational problem of controllability in CAFs for five key semantics. We also develop Boolean satisfiability based counterexample-guided abstraction refinement algorithms and direct encodings of controllability as quantified Boolean formulas, and empirically evaluate their scalability on a range of NPhard variants of controllability.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 CEGAR for skeptical controllability Input: CAF C = (F, C, U), target T AF , σ {com, stb}... Algorithm 2 CEGAR for credulous controllability Input: CAF C = (F, C, U), target T AF , σ {adm, stb}.
Open Source Code Yes The implementation, benchmarks, and runtime data are available online.
Open Datasets Yes We generated CAFs from the 2019 ICCMA competition AFs (http://argumentationcompetition.org/2019/iccma-instances.tar.gz) as follows.
Dataset Splits No The paper describes how the CAFs were generated from existing AFs by introducing probabilistic parameters (p C, p U) for control arguments and uncertain parts. However, it does not specify a division of these generated instances into distinct training, validation, and test sets. The generated instances are used directly for evaluation.
Hardware Specification Yes The experiments were run on Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 2.4-GHz, 256-GB nodes with Cent OS 7 under a per-instance 900-s time and 64-GB memory limit.
Software Dependencies Yes We used the QBF solver CAQE 4.0.0 [Tentrup, 2019] with the Bloqqer [Heule et al., 2015] preprocessor and the flag --qdo to obtain assignments corresponding to control configurations. For CEGAR we used the Glucose 4.1 SAT solver [Audemard and Simon, 2018].
Experiment Setup Yes For each p C {0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2}, each non-query argument is a control argument with probability p C. For each p U {0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2}, each argument (apart from control and query arguments) is uncertain with probability p U. Each attack is uncertain with probability p U/2 unless the source or the target is a control argument, and has uncertain direction with probability p U/2 unless the reverse direction is already a fixed or an uncertain attack. The rest of the arguments and attacks remain fixed. This yielded a total of 6520 CAFs, out of which 1304 are simplified CAFs with no uncertain part. The experiments were run... under a per-instance 900-s time and 64-GB memory limit.
