Infants' ability to use language as a guide to inductive inference
… whether infants use language to guide their inferences about novel objects. In Study 1, forty-eight infants from two age groups (16-18 and 20-22 months) participated in a task which used exploratory play as a window on inferential abilities. Infants explored novel toys presented in pairs: The …

Probabilistic Learning of Indexed Families under Monotonicity Constraints: Hierarchy Results and Complexity Aspects
In our work, we deal with a formalization of inductive inference. We investigate a class of probabilistic inductive inference models, namely probabilistic inductive inference of indexed families under <br>monotonicity constraints. All these inference models are based <br>on the inductive inference …

The empirical relevance of metaphysics
… first part of the dissertation is concerned with inductive inference. I argue that we shouldn't expect the world to be amenable to induction if orthodox versions of Humeanism or Non-Humeanism are correct. I then develop and defend a hybrid view, a 'Humean Non-Humeanism', which has a better hope of …

A multi-resolution multi-source and multi-modal (M3) transductive framework for concept detection in news video
… multi-modal fusion methods under a supervised inductive inference framework. In this thesis, we present a novel multi-resolution, multi-source and multi-modal transductive learning framework. As different modal features only work well in different temporal resolutions and different resolutions …

Sinbad Automation Of Scientific Process: From Hidden Factor Analysis To Theory Synthesis
… procedures that automate the method of inductive inference to derive a theory from observational data dominated by nonlinear regularities. The procedures utilize SINBAD – a novel computational method of nonlinear factor analysis that is based on the principle of maximization of mutual …

On efficient learning algorithms for neural networks.
Inductive Inference Learning can be described in terms of finding a good approximation to some unknown classification rule f, based on a pre-classified set of training examples $\langle$x,f(x)$\rangle.$ One particular class of learning systems that has attracted much attention recently is the class …

Deliberative Bayesianism: Abduction, Reflection, and the Weight of Evidence
… agent may incur from those decisions; during the inductive stage, the inquirer is expected to conduct her empirical investigation in a deliberate manner, in accordance with the assertions and decisions she made during abduction and deduction, collectively referred to as the deliberative …

Naturalism & Objectivity: Methods and Meta-methods
… account provides a basic account of evidence and inference. Formally, the approach is a re-interpretation of standard frequentist (Fisherian, Neyman-Pearson) statistics. Informally, it gives an account of inductive inference based on arguing from error, an analog of frequentist statistics, which …

An Inductive Engine for the Acquisition of Temporal Knowledge
… method, called TIM (Time-based Inductive Machine), for discovering symbolic temporal patterns from observations using the technique of inductive inference. The problem of discovering temporal patterns from observations can be viewed as a problem in concept acquisition, where the …

The development of essentialist reasoning about religion categories in Northern Ireland
… research consisted of a series of three inductive inference studies (Studies 1-3) measuring essentialist beliefs about the inductive potential of religion-, gender- and control categories in NI, one exploratory inference study examining essentialist reasoning about these categories in the …

A Bayesian framework for concept learning
… Neither of the two classic approaches to inductive inference hypothesis testing in a constrained space of possible rules and computing similarity to the observed examples can provide a complete picture of how people generalize concepts in even this simple setting. This thesis proposes a …
