Abducting Economics [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Economic Review, 2017
Abduction is the process of generating and choosing models, hypotheses, and data analyzed in response to surprising findings. All good empirical economists abduct. Explanations usually evolve as studies evolve. The abductive approach challenges economists to step outside the framework of received notions about the “identification problem” that rigidly

Dataglove Measurement of Joint Angles in Sign Language Handshapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In sign language research, we understand little about articulatory factors involved in shaping phonemic boundaries or the amount (and articulatory nature) of acceptable phonetic variation between handshapes.

Abduction and Dialogical Proof in Argumentation and Logic Programming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We develop a model of abduction in abstract argumentation, where changes to an argumentation framework act as hypotheses to explain the support of an observation. We present dialogical proof theories for the main decision problems (i.e., finding hypothe-

Sensory Electrical Stimulation Improves Foot Placement during Targeted Stepping Post-Stroke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Proper foot placement is vital for maintaining balance during walking, requiring the integration of multiple sensory signals with motor commands. Disruption of brain structures post-stroke likely alters the processing of sensory information by motor ...

Compilability of Abduction

open access: yes, 2002
Abduction is one of the most important forms of reasoning; it has been successfully applied to several practical problems such as diagnosis. In this paper we investigate whether the computational complexity of abduction can be reduced by an appropriate ...

On the Complexity of Finding Second-Best Abductive Explanations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
While looking for abductive explanations of a given set of manifestations, an ordering between possible solutions is often assumed. The complexity of finding/verifying optimal solutions is already known.
