Falsification and Refutation [PDF]
A scientific theory, according to Popper, can be legitimately saved from falsification by introducing an auxiliary hypothesis to generate new, falsifiable predictions. Also, if there are suspicions of bias or error, the researchers might introduce an auxiliary falsifiable hypothesis that would allow testing. But this technique can not solve the problem

The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section A, 1996
This paper deals with the concept of falsification in hypothesis testing research. A theoretical analysis of assumptions about falsifying behaviour and hypothesis-falsifying observations is presented, with two experimental studies. Both the theoretical analysis and the experimental results point to a number of paradoxes underlying the normative ...

This chapter evaluates falsification. Contemporary philosophers of science tend to look down on falsifiability as overly simplistic. Nevertheless, among many practising scientists, the notion is still regarded as a useful — if imperfect — heuristic for judging the strength of a hypothesis in terms of its ability to generate new insights when combined ...

Foundations of Science, 2015
This is a response to a claim by Sven Ove Hansson to the effect that Poppers dictum that falsification lies at the heart of all pursuit of science has once and for all been falsified by his study of articles published in Nature during the year 2000. We claim that this is based on a misunderstanding of Poppers philosophy of science interpreting it too ...

Falsification of an aircraft autopilot
Proceedings of the 2002 American Control Conference (IEEE Cat. No.CH37301), 2003The aim of this paper is to apply falsification techniques to the retuning of an aircraft autopilot, using experimental flight data. More precisely, an initial MIMO PI controller, synthesized with a modal technique on a simplified aircraft model, gives a poor performance on the real aircraft.

From Falsification to Verification
2001This paper enhances the linear temporal logic model checking process with the ability to automatically generate a deductive proof that the system meets its temporal specification. Thus, we emphasize the point of view that model checking can also be used to justify why the system actually works.
