An Analogy Principle in Inductive Logic
Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 164 (12):1293-1321 (2013)
Abstract
We propose an Analogy Principle in the context of Unary Inductive Logic and characterize the probability functions which satisfy it. In particular in the case of a language with just two predicates the probability functions satisfying this principle correspond to solutions of Skyrmsʼ ‘Wheel of Fortune’Author's Profile
