Inductive reasoning
Our aim is to explain a general theory of inductive reasoning which is close enough to the concerns of language studies. In this setup , the optimal prediction rate is assigned to the hypothesis considered most likely by a prior-free form of Bayesian inference. In terms of practical applications a most attractive form of this approach is embodied by the so-called minimum description length (MDL...
متن کاملInductive Reasoning in Mathematics
We investigate several methods of inductive reasoning in the domain of difference equations, including the method of generalization with beliefs, the method of successive refinement, and temporal methods based on comparisons with previously solved problems.
متن کاملInductive reasoning.
Inductive reasoning entails using existing knowledge or observations to make predictions about novel cases. We review recent findings in research on category-based induction as well as theoretical models of these results, including similarity-based models, connectionist networks, an account based on relevance theory, Bayesian models, and other mathematical models. A number of touchstone empiric...
متن کاملExplanatory Reasoning for Inductive Confidence
We present Explanatory Reasoning for Inductive Confidence (ERIC), a computational model of explanation generation and evaluation. ERIC combines analogical hypothesis generation and justification with normative probabilistic theory over statement confidences. It successfully captures a broad range of empirical phenomena, and represents a promising approach toward the application of explanatory k...
متن کاملInductive Reasoning about Unawareness Inductive Reasoning about Unawareness
We develop a model of games with awareness that allows for di erential levels of awareness. We show that, for the standard modal logical interpretations of belief and awareness, a player cannot believe there exist propositions of which he is unaware. Nevertheless, we argue that a boundedly rational individual may regard the possibility that there exist propositions of which she is unaware as be...
