REPRESENTING CONJUNCTIVE DEDUCTIONS BY DISJUNCTIVE DEDUCTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Review of Symbolic Logic, 2016
AbstractA skeleton of the category with finite coproducts${\cal D}$ freely generated by a single object has a subcategory isomorphic to a skeleton of the category with finite products ${\cal C}$ freely generated by a countable set of objects. As a consequence, we obtain that ${\cal D}$ has a subcategory equivalent with ${\cal C}$.

Classifying and Analyzing Analogies

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2001
Analogies come in several forms that serve distinct functions. Inductive analogy is a common type of analogical argument, but critical thinking texts sometimes treat all analogies as inductive.

Hemispheric Differences in Relational Reasoning: Novel Insights based on an Old Technique

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Relational reasoning, or the ability to integrate multiple mental relations to arrive at a logical conclusion, is a critical component of higher cognition. A bilateral brain network involving lateral prefrontal and parietal cortices has been consistently

The 'Most Important and Fundamental' Distinction in Logic

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2001
In this paper I argue that the debate over the purported distinction between deductive and inductive arguments can be bypassed because making the distinction is unnecessary for successfully evaluating arguments.

Categorical Abstract Logic: Hidden Multi-Sorted Logics as Multi-Term Institutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Babenyshev and Martins proved that two hidden multi-sorted deductive systems are deductively equivalent if and only if there exists an isomorphism between their corresponding lattices of theories that commutes with substitutions.

The Deductive/Inductive Distinction

open access: yesInformal Logic, 1994
In this paper I examine five distinctions between deductive and inductive arguments, concluding that the best of the five defines a deductive argument as one in which conclusive favorable relevance to its conclusion is attributed to its premises, and an ...

Automated Deductive Verification for Ladder Programming [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Ladder Logics is a programming language standardized in IEC 61131-3 and widely used for programming industrial Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). A PLC program consists of inputs (whose values are given at runtime by factory sensors), outputs (whose ...
