. We propose a more explicit role for abductive reasoning, or the development of initial explanation, in hypothetico-deductive (H-D) inquiry. This book examines three areas in which abductive reasoning is especially important: medicine, science, and law. The reader is introduced to abduction and Abstract. This paper deals with the role of abductive inference in legal reasoning. Both in the determination of the relevant facts and in the determination of their The 9/11 Commission identified a lack of coordination among U.S. Intelligence agencies as a reason for failing to detect attacks on U.S. Soil. Abduction is a form of non-monotonic reasoning that has gained increasing interest in the last few years. The key idea behind it can be represented the But for the scope of this blog post, let's focus on a simple taxonomy with three categories: deductive, inductive, and abductive reasoning. The discovery Paneth in 1917 of bismuth hydride, which I will describe in some detail, is a conspicuous example of making use of abductive reasoning in Abstract Abduction, deduction and induction describe forms of reasoning. Deduction and induction are discussed in the nursing literature. Abductive reasoning involves generating an explanation for a given set of This paper focuses on the use of abductive reasoning in diagnostic systems in My anecdote forced us to adopt a lesser-known mode of reasoning that I'll In abductive reasoning, you go directly from facts to a theory which Organizational scholars suggest that abductive reasoning fits complex situations and may address many of the challenges of complexity. A Case for Abductive Reasoning over Ontologies. Corinna Elsenbroich1, Oliver Kutz2, and Ulrike Sattler2. 1 Department of Computer Science, King's College AbstractThe interactions among the components of a biological system can be given a logical representation that is useful for reasoning about Brendan Juba, Implicit learning of common sense for reasoning, A methodology for using a default and abductive reasoning system. Int'l J. Douglas Walton's Abductive Reasoning presents both an introduction to abductive reasoning (including inference to the best explanation) and Abductive Reasoning to Explain Integrated Development: Lessons from the Multi-Method Evaluation of the Millennium Villages Project. Abductive problems have been widely studied in propositional logic. First order abduction, however, has been viewed as intractable, for the undecidability. This is especially important in abductive reasoning, which is basically a very weak mode of inference. The importance of strategic thinking can already be seen Abstract. This paper discusses abductive reasoning -that is, reasoning in which explanatory hypotheses are formed and evaluated. First, it criticizes two recent
