- Abstract: This paper examines the interdisciplinary research question of how to
integrate Computational Argumentation, as studied in AI, with Cognition, as can
be found in Cognitive Science, Linguistics, and Philosophy. It stems from the
work of the 1st Workshop on Computational Argumentation and Cognition
(COGNITAR), which was organized as part of the 24th European Conference on
Artificial Intelligence (ECAI), and took place virtually on September 8th,
2020. The paper begins with a brief presentation of the scientific motivation
for the integration of Computational Argumentation and Cognition, arguing that
within the context of Human-Centric AI the use of theory and methods from
Computational Argumentation for the study of Cognition can be a promising
avenue to pursue. A short summary of each of the workshop presentations is
given showing the wide spectrum of problems where the synthesis of the theory
and methods of Computational Argumentation with other approaches that study
Cognition can be applied. The paper presents the main problems and challenges
in the area that would need to be addressed, both at the scientific level but
also at the epistemological level, particularly in relation to the synthesis of
ideas and approaches from the various disciplines involved.
