The analysis presents fresh insights into this notion of reasoning, which derives from effects to causes or from surprising observations to explanatory theories..The author outlines some logical and AI approaches to abduction as well as studies various kinds of inverse problems in astronomy, physics, medicine, biology, and human sciences to provide examples of retroductions and abductions. The discussion covers also everyday examples with the implication of this notion in detective stories, one of Peirce’s own favorite themes..The author uses Bayesian probabilities to argue that explanatory abduction is a method of confirmation.
