We are excited to announce that Anna Rapberger has recived the KR Early Career Award for her contribution to Theoretical and Practical Aspects of Computational Argumentation! The KR Early Career Award acknowledges early-career researchers who have made notable contributions to the theory and/or practice of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, and demonstrate strong potential for future impactful work in the field. Her dissertation Unpacking the argument: A claim-centric view on abstract argumentation was supervised by Stefan Woltran and co-supervised by Christian Fermüller.

Congratulations to Anna Rapberger for receiving this outstanding recognition!

About

Anna Rapberger completed her PhD at TU Wien in symbolic AI in March of 2023, where she explored the structural and dynamical aspects of claim-centric reasoning. Her research bridges structured and abstract approaches to argumentation, combining expressive logic-based argumentation formalisms with graph-based argument models. In August 2023, she joined Imperial College London as a postdoctoral researcher. In her current position, her work centers on explainable AI, advancing trustworthy AI systems through advanced argumentation frameworks.
