This book discusses how scientific and other types of cognition
make use of models, abduction, and explanatory reasoning in order
to produce important or creative changes in theories and concepts.
It includes revised contributions presented during the
international conference on Model-Based Reasoning (MBR'015), held
on June 25-27 in Sestri Levante, Italy. The book is divided into
three main parts, the first of which focuses on models, reasoning
and representation. It highlights key theoretical concepts from an
applied perspective, addressing issues concerning information
visualization, experimental methods and design. The second part
goes a step further, examining abduction, problem solving and
reasoning. The respective contributions analyze different types of
reasoning, discussing various concepts of inference and creativity
and their relationship with experimental data. In turn, the third
part reports on a number of historical, epistemological and
technological issues. By analyzing possible contradictions in
modern research and describing representative case studies in
experimental research, this part aims at fostering new discussions
and stimulating new ideas. All in all, the book provides
researchers and graduate students in the field of applied
philosophy, epistemology, cognitive science and artificial
intelligence alike with an authoritative snapshot of current
theories and applications of model-based reasoning.
