Deep inference names a general idea in structural proof theory that breaks with the classical sequent calculus by generalising the notion of abstract structure structure to permit inference to occur in contexts of high structural complexity. The term deep inference is generally reserved for proof calculi where the structural complexity is unbounded in this article we will use non shallow inference to refer to calculi that have structural complexity greater than the sequent calculus, but not unboundedly so, although this is not at present established terminology. Deep inference is not important in logic outside of structural proof theory, since the phenomena that lead to the proposal of formal system s with deep inference are all related to the cut elimination theorem . The first calculus of deep inference was proposed by Kurt Sch tte , but the idea did not generate much interest at the time. Nuel Belnap proposed display logic in an attempt to characterise the essence of structural proof theory. The calculus of structures was proposed in order to give a cut free characterisation of noncommutative logic .

Frequentist inference is one of a number of possible ways of formulating generally applicable schemes for making statistical inference s that is, for drawing conclusions from Sample statistics statistical samples .

Other than frequentistic inference, the main alternative approach to statistical inference is Bayesian inference , while another is fiducial inference . While Bayesian inference is sometimes held to include the approach to inference leading to optimal decision s, a more restricted view is taken here for simplicity.

Predictive inference is an Probability interpretations interpretation of probability that emphasizes the prediction of future observations based on past observations. Initially, predictive inference based on observable parameters was the main function of probability, but it fell out of favor in the 20th century due to a new parametric approach pioneered by Bruno de Finetti . The approach modeled phenomena as a physical system observed with error e.g., celestial mechanics . De Finetti s idea of exchangeability that future observations should behave like past observations came to the attention of the English speaking world with the 1974 translation of his 1937 book Foresight its Logical Laws, Its Subjective Sources French La Pr vision ses lois logiques, ses sources subjectives and has since been propounded by such statisticians as Seymour Geisser . ref name geisser http books.google.com books?id wfdlBZ iwZoC Predictive Inference An Introduction , Seymour Geisser , CRC Press , 1993 ISBN 0 412 03471 9 ref References reflist DEFAULTSORT Predictive Inference Category Statistical inference Category Probability interpretations ... more details

In informal logic , an inference objection argument objection is an objection to an argument based not on any of its stated premises, but rather on the relationship between premise and Main contention contention . For a given simple argument, if the assumption is made that its premises are correct, fault may be found in the progression from these to the conclusion of the argument. This can often take the form of an unstated co premise , as in Begging the question . In other words, it may be necessary to make an assumption in order to conclude anything from a set of true statements. This assumption must also be true in order that the conclusion follow logically from the initial statements. Example Image NASA Stardust Mission inference objection.png thumb left 175px An example of an inference objection based on NASA s Stardust Mission . ref http www.newscientist.com article mg18124314.400 doom in the sky.html Doom in the sky? 24 January 2004 New Scientist Bot generated title ref Image Stardust Mission Inference objection with co premise included.png thumb right 200px The same argument with the originally unstated co premise included.

The objection is therefore placed beside the main premise and exactly corresponds to an unstated or hidden co premise. This is demonstrated by the argument map to the right in which the full pattern of reasoning relating to the contention is set out.

Uncertain inference was first described by Rijsbergen ref cite author C. J. van Rijsbergen title A non classical logic for information retrieval publisher The Computer Journal pages 481 485 year 1986 ref as a way to formally define a query and document relationship in Information retrieval . This formalization is a logical implication with an attached measure of uncertainty. Definitions Rijsbergen proposes that the measure of uncertainty of a document d to a query q be the probability of its logical implication, i.e. math P d to q math A user s query can be interpreted as a set of assertions about the desired document. It is the system s task to infer, given a particular document, if the query assertions are true. If they are, the document is retrieved. In many cases the contents of documents are not sufficient to assert the queries. A knowledge base of facts and rules is needed, but some of them may be uncertain because there may be a probability associated to using them for inference. Therefore, we can also refer to this as plausible inference . The plausibility of an inference math d to q math is a function of the plausibility of each query assertion. Rather than retrieving a document that exactly matches the query we should rank the documents based on their plausibility in regards to that query. Since d and q are representations of documents user queries there is a possibility that they have errors and be uncertain. This will affect the plausibility to a given query.

dablink This article is about the mathematical concept. For inductive inference in logic, see Inductive reasoning . Around 1960, Ray Solomonoff founded the theory of universal inductive inference , the theory of prediction based on observations for example, predicting the next symbol based upon a given series of symbols. The only assumption is that the environment follows some unknown but computable probability distribution . Fundamental ingredients of the theory are the concepts of algorithmic probability and Kolmogorov complexity . The universal prior probability of any prefix p of a computable sequence x is the sum of the probabilities of all programs for a universal computer that compute something starting with p. Given some p and any computable but unknown probability distribution from which x is sampled, the universal prior and Bayes theorem can be used to predict the yet unseen parts of x in optimal fashion.

In constraint satisfaction , constraint inference is a relationship between constraints and their consequences. A set of constraints math D math entails a constraint math C math if every solution to math D math is also a solution to math C math . In other words, if math V math is a valuation of the variables in the scopes of the constraints in math D math and all constraints in math D math are satisfied by math V math , then math V math also satisfies the constraint math C math . Some operations on constraints produce a new constraint that is a consequence of them. Constraint composition operates on a pair of binary constraints math x,y ,R math and math y,z ,S math with a common variable. The composition of such two constraints is the constraint math x,z ,Q math that is satisfied by every evaluation of the two non shared variables for which there exists a value of the shared variable math y math such that the evaluation of these three variables satisfies the two original constraints math x,y ,R math and math y,z ,S math . Constraint projection restricts the effects of a constraint to some of its variables. Given a constraint math t,R math its projection to a subset math t math of its variables is the constraint math t ,R math that is satisfied by an evaluation if this evaluation can be extended to the other variables in such a way the original constraint math t,R math is satisfied. Extended composition is similar in principle to composition, but allows for an arbitrary number of possibly non binary constraints the generated constraint is on an arbitrary subset of the variables of the original constraints. Given constraints math C 1, ldots,C m math and a list math A math of their variables, the extended composition of them is the constraint math A,R math where an evaluation of math A math satisfies this constraint if it can be extended to the other variables so that math ...

Introduction Rules of inference are syntactical transform rules which one can use to infer a conclusion from a premise to create an argument. A set of rules can be used to infer any valid conclusion if it is complete, while never inferring an invalid conclusion, if it is sound.
