MODEL-BASED REASONING IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY<\/h3>\n

Inferential Models for Logic, Language, Cognition and Computation<\/h3>\n

\"Screenshot<\/h3>\n

From Wednesday<\/strong> the 24th to Saturday the 26th of October 2018<\/b>, the International Conference MODEL-BASED REASONING IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Inferential Models for Logic, Language, Cognition <\/strong>and Computation <\/strong>will take place at Central University of Seville, Calle San Fernando 4, Seville, Spain.<\/p>\n

GO TO DETAILS, CALL FOR PAPERS, AND PRINTABLE AREA<\/a><\/p>\n

The conference dealt with the logical, epistemological, and cognitive aspects of modeling practices employed in science, technology, and cognitive science, including logical and computational models of such practices. We solicited papers that examined the role of abduction, visualization, simulation, and other aspects in model-based reasoning from philosophical, logical, epistemological, historical, sociological, psychological, or computational perspectives. The conference was also devoted to examine the impact of Model-Based Reasoning research in the enhancement of various kinds of human cognitive skills, mental, hybrid, manipulative, etc.<\/p>\n
