Mixed-Initiative Argumentation: A Framework for Justification Management in Clinical Group Decision Support

This paper identifies ways in which traditional approaches to argumentation can be modified to meet the needs of practical group decision support. A framework for outcome-driven decision rationale management is proposed that permits a novel conception of mixed-initiative argumentation. The framework is evaluated in the context of group decision support in medicine.
