“…9. The use of probabilistic reasoning to model plausible reasoning is not a new idea-for instance, see work on probabilistic graphical models (Pearl, 1988) and work on inductive inference (e.g., see Solomonoff, 1964a,b;Jaeger, 2005). The field of automated reasoning (e.g., see Robinson and Voronkov, 2001b,a, for a survey) contains work on other forms of non-deductive reasoning including reasoning by induction (e.g., see Quinlan, 1986;Bundy, 2001;Comon, 2001), abduction (e.g., see Console et al, 1991;Mayer and Pirri, 1993;Gabbay et al, 1998;Denecker and Kakas, 2002), and analogy (e.g., see Davies and Russell, 1987;Ashley, 1988;Russell, 1988).…”
