Differential involvement of left prefrontal cortex in inductive and deductive reasoning.
While inductive and deductive reasoning are considered distinct logical and psychological processes, little is known about their respective neural basis. To address this issue we scanned 16 subjects with fMRI, using an event-related design, while they engaged in inductive and deductive reasoning tasks. Both types of reasoning were characterized by activation of left lateral prefrontal and bilat...
متن کاملRelations between inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning.
One of the most important open questions in reasoning research is how inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning are related. In an effort to address this question, we applied methods and concepts from memory research. We used 2 experiments to examine the effects of logical validity and premise-conclusion similarity on evaluation of arguments. Experiment 1 showed 2 dissociations: For a common ...
متن کاملAbductive, Inductive and Deductive Reasoning about Resources
We describe a method for reasoning about programs that uses a mixture of abductive, inductive and deductive inference. It allows us to synthesize a pre/post spec for a program procedure, without requiring any information about the procedure’s calling context. The method can be used to obtain partial specifications for portions of large code bases in the millions of lines of code. The method beg...
متن کاملDeductive and Inductive Reasoning on Spatio-Temporal Data
We present a framework for a declarative approach to spatiotemporal reasoning on geographical data, based on the constraint logical language STACLP, which offers deductive and inductive capabilities. It can be exploited for a deductive rule-based approach to represent domain knowledge on data. Furthermore it is well suited to model trajectories of moving objects, which can be analysed by using ...
متن کاملRobot Control Using Inductive, Deductive and Case Based Reasoning
The paper deals with a problem of intelligent system’s design for complex environments. There is discussed a possibility to integrate several technologies into one basic structure that could form a kernel of an autonomous intelligent robotic system. One alternative structure is proposed in order to form a basis of an intelligent system that would be able to operate in complex environments. The ...
