| Shrnutí: | A framework with sets of attacking arguments (
$\textit{SETAF}$
) is an extension of the well-known Dung’s Abstract Argumentation Frameworks (
$\mathit{AAF}$
s) that allows joint attacks on arguments. In this paper, we provide a translation from Normal Logic Programs (
$\textit{NLP}$
s) to
$\textit{SETAF}$
s and vice versa, from
$\textit{SETAF}$
s to
$\textit{NLP}$
s. We show that there is pairwise equivalence between their semantics, including the equivalence between
$L$
-stable and semi-stable semantics. Furthermore, for a class of
$\textit{NLP}$
s called Redundancy-Free Atomic Logic Programs (
$\textit{RFALP}$
s), there is also a structural equivalence as these back-and-forth translations are each other’s inverse. Then, we show that
$\textit{RFALP}$
s are as expressive as
$\textit{NLP}$
s by transforming any
$\textit{NLP}$
into an equivalent
$\textit{RFALP}$
through a series of program transformations already known in the literature. We also show that these program transformations are confluent, meaning that every
$\textit{NLP}$
will be transformed into a unique
$\textit{RFALP}$
. The results presented in this paper enhance our understanding that
$\textit{NLP}$
s and
$\textit{SETAF}$
s are essentially the same formalism. |
