Synopsis "Model-Based Reasoning: Science, Technology, Values "

the study of diagnostic, visual, spatial, analogical, and temporal reasoning has demonstrated that there are many ways of performing intelligent and creative reasoning that cannot be described with the help of traditional notions of reasoning, such as classical logic. understanding the contribution of modeling practices to discovery and conceptual change in science requires expanding scientific reasoning to include complex forms of creative reasoning that are not always successful and can lead to incorrect solutions. the study of these heuristic ways of reasoning is situated at the crossroads of philosophy, artificial intelligence, cognitive psychology, and logic; that is, at the heart of cognitive science. there are several key ingredients common to the various forms of model-based reasoning considered in this book. the term `model comprises both internal and external representations. the models are intended as interpretations of target physical systems, processes, phenomena, or situations. the models are retrieved or constructed on the basis of potentially satisfying salient constraints of the target domain. moreover, in the modeling process, various forms of abstraction are used. evaluation and adaptation take place in the light of structural, causal, and/or functional constraints. model simulation can be used to produce new states and enable evaluation of behaviors and other factors.the various contributions of the book are written by interdisciplinary researchers who are active in the area of creative reasoning in science and technology: the most recent results and achievements in the topics above are illustrated in the chapters.
