Explaining 'Explaining Away'
Explaining away is a common pattern of reasoning in which the connrma-tion of one cause of an observed or believed event reduces the need to invoke alternative causes. The opposite of explaining away also can occur, in which the connrmation of one cause increases belief in another. We provide a general qualitative probabilistic analysis of intercausal reasoning, and identify the property of the...
متن کاملExplaining Simulations Through Self Explaining Agents
Several strategies are used to explain emergent interaction patterns in agent-based simulations. A distinction can be made between simulations in which the agents just behave in a reactive way, and simulations involving agents with also pro-active (goal-directed) behavior. Pro-active behavior is more variable and harder to predict than reactive behavior, and therefore it might be harder to expl...
متن کاملExplaining for Contextualizing and Contextualizing for Explaining
This paper proposes a view on the relationships between explanation and context. First, we install the background of our proposal. This background comprises two parts: the consideration of explanations in knowledge-based systems, and a preliminary observation of relationships between explanations and context. We comment briefly previous works on explanations in order to point out what is reusab...
متن کاملExplaining irony
1. Traditional approaches to irony Here are some typical examples of verbal irony: (1) Mary (after a boring party): That was fun. (2) I left my bag in the restaurant, and someone kindly walked off with it. (3) Sue (to someone who has done her a disservice): I can't thank you enough. In each case, the point of the irony is to indicate that a proposition the speaker might otherwise be taken to en...
متن کاملExplaining Bifurcations
This paper will introduce the topic of dynamical systems with both discrete and continuous time variables. Fixed points will be discussed, along with their properties such as stability or topological type. The paper will continue on to define the concept of hyperbolicity and its relevance in determining the structural stability of the system. It will conclude with a definition of a bifurcation ...
