Printedonacid-freepaper ThisSpringerimprintispublishedbySpringerNature TheregisteredcompanyisSpringerInternationalPublishingAGSwitzerland Preface Recent years have witnessed a rapid growth of interest in formal models of argu- mentationandtheirapplicationindiversesub-fieldsanddomains oftheapplication of artificial intelligence. Specifically, formal models of argumentation have been devel- oped for logic-based reasoning in the presence of uncertain, incomplete and incon- sistent information, non-monotonic reasoning, decision making, and inter-agent communication and dialogue. Models of argumentation have also been developed for and applied in a multitude offields including belief revision, the Semantic Web, grid applications, ontologies, recommender systems, machine learning, neural networks, trustcomputing,normativesystems,socialchoicetheory,judgmentaggregation,game theory, law and medicine. The Third International Workshop on the Theory and Applications of Formal Argumentation (TAFA 2015) aimed to promote further investigations into the use of formal argumentation and links with other fields of artificial intelligence. Co-located with the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI 2015) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, TAFA 2015 built on the success of TAFA 2011 and TAFA 2013 with a range of strong papers submitted by authors from Europe, China, and Argentina. The workshop received 25 submissions, of which 16 were accepted for presentation after a rigorous review process. The workshop was attended by over 30 participants, and involved many lively and thought-provoking discussions. It also included a presentation of the results of the first International Competition on Com- putational Models of Argumentation1. We would like to thank the authors of this volume’s papers for their high-quality contributions, and acknowledge the reviewers’ efforts for their in-depth feedback to authors. The included papers point not only to the exciting work taking place in the field today, but also to challenges and exciting opportunities for future research in the area, which will no doubt lead to future volumes in this series of proceedings.
