On The Proof Dynamics Of Inference To The Best Explanation, John R. Josephson Jul 2001

On The Proof Dynamics Of Inference To The Best Explanation, John R. Josephson

Cardozo Law Review

"Inference to the best explanation" - here called "abduction" - is a distinctive and recognizable pattern of evidential reasoning. It is ubiquitous at or near the surface of typical arguments offered in judicial and scientific contexts, and in ordinary life. It is part of "commonsense logic." An abductive argument is open to attack in characteristic ways, and may be defended in characteristic ways by supporting arguments. Abductive arguments are fallible, but there are only a small number of ways in which they can go wrong. This analysis provides a framework for justification, criticism, and dialogue concerning the evaluation of evidence. …

Logical Argumentation, Abduction And Bayesian Decision Theory: A Bayesian Approach To Logical Arguments And Its Application To Legal Evidential Reasoning, David Poole Jul 2001

Logical Argumentation, Abduction And Bayesian Decision Theory: A Bayesian Approach To Logical Arguments And Its Application To Legal Evidential Reasoning, David Poole

Cardozo Law Review

There are good normative arguments for using Bayesian decision theory for deciding what to do. However, there are also good arguments for using logic where we want formal semantics for a language, and where we want to use the structure of logical argumentation with logical variables to represent multiple individuals (things). This Article shows how decision theory and logical argumentation can be combined into a coherent framework. The Independent Choice Logic ("ICL") can be viewed as a first-order representation of belief networks with conditional probability tables represented as first-order rules, or as a abductive/argument-based logic with probabilities over assumables. Intuitively …


Structured Deliberation For Dynamic Uncertain Inference, Paul Snow, Marianne Belis Jul 2001

Structured Deliberation For Dynamic Uncertain Inference, Paul Snow, Marianne Belis

Cardozo Law Review

Dynamic uncertain inference is the formation of opinions based upon evidence or argument whose availability is neither disclosed to the analyst in advance nor disclosed all at once. Normative accounts of belief change, which work well when the analyst has prior notice of well-designed experiments and their possible outcomes, may not be applicable to less tidy occasions of inference. In addition, there is the clerical challenge of keeping track of what has been observed, what relates to what, and how. This Article begins with a discussion of subjective valuation in general. An approach to deliberation, similar to what is practiced …


Computational Inference For Evidential Reasoning In Support Of Judicial Proof, Tod S. Levitt, Kathryn Blackmond Laskey Jul 2001

Computational Inference For Evidential Reasoning In Support Of Judicial Proof, Tod S. Levitt, Kathryn Blackmond Laskey

Cardozo Law Review

The process of judicial proof accrues evidence to confirm or deny hypotheses about world events relevant to a legal case. Software applications that seek to support this process must provide the user with sophisticated capabilities to manipulate evidential reasoning for legal cases. This requires computational techniques to represent the actors, entities, events, and context of world situations to structure alternative hypotheses interpreting evidence and to execute processes that draw inferences about the truth of hypotheses by assessing the relevance and weight of evidence to confirm or deny the hypotheses. Bayesian inference networks are combined with knowledge representations from artificial intelligence …
