Ben, I'm sure you know it in your mind, but this simple description will make some people think that NARS is obvious wrong. In NARS, in induction and abduction the truth value of the conclusion depends on the truth values of both premises, but in an asymmetric way. It is the "frequency" factor of the conclusion that only depends on the frequency of one premise, but not the other. Unlike deduction, the truth-value function of induction and abduction are fundamentally asymmetric (on negative evidence), with respect to the two premises. Actually, it is the PLN functions that looks wrong to me, on this aspect. ;-) Pei ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=114414975-3c8e69 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
