Enthymemes are traditionally defined as arguments in which some elements are left unstated. It is an empirical fact that enthymemes are both enormously frequent and appropriately understood in everyday argumentation. Why is it so? We outline an answer that dispenses with the so called "principle of charity", which is the standard notion underlying most

Proceedings of the 31st annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2008
In many collections, documents are annotated using concepts from a structured knowledge source such as an ontology or thesaurus. Examples include the news domain [7], where each news item is categorized according to the nature of the event that took place, and Wikipedia, with its per-article categories [1].

Measuring disability with parsimony
Disability and Rehabilitation, 1999Health surveys, especially those for older persons, include numerous detailed items about disability. There has been little effort to develop a global disability item, that is, one question that covers the concept of disability briefly but well. This article discusses how parsimony can be achieved through a single item, or less desirably by reductions ...

Parsimonious Computational Completeness
2021Throughout the history of Formal Languages, one of the research directions has always been to describe computational completeness using only a small amount of possibly scarce resources. We review some of these results in the form of an essay.

The estimation of evolutionary history from biomolecular sequences is a major intellectual project in systematic biology and many methods are used to reconstruct phylogenetic (i.e. evolutionary) trees from sequence data. In this paper, we report on an extensive performance analysis of parsimony and two distance-based methods, a popular method called ...

Proceedings of the 31st annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2008
We describe a method for applying parsimonious language models to re-estimate the term probabilities assigned by relevance models. We apply our method to six topic sets from test collections in five different genres. Our parsimonious relevance models (i) improve retrieval effectiveness in terms of MAP on all collections, (ii) significantly outperform ...

The Parsimony Ratchet, a New Method for Rapid Parsimony Analysis
Cladistics, 1999The Parsimony Ratchet1 is presented as a new method for analysis of large data sets. The method can be easily implemented with existing phylogenetic software by generating batch command files. Such an approach has been implemented in the programs DADA (Nixon, 1998) and Winclada (Nixon, 1999).

Parsimony occupies a foundational role in the construction of scientific theories, functioning as a heuristic criterion across in all three stages of theory-building—justification, selection, and generation. It asserts that, all else being equal, the theory or hypothesis with the fewest assumptions should be preferred.
