Inference in AI

The inference is finding a conclusion or result based on any data, events, and any information. Usually, there will be a set of conditions and the conclusion is made, which satisfies all the given conditions are true. The conclusion is made according to the inference rules. Any artificial intelligence agent or an intelligent system uses the inference engine to find a better result or output. The work of the inference engine is to analyze the fact and figures based on all circumstances. After the analysis, the machine concludes this fact and gives it to the agent. The agent uses this conclusion for further processing and decision-making. Intelligent systems will generate new logic from existing ones based on the facts.

Part 1: Choose two of the proofs below and use one of the indirect proof techniques (reductio ad absurdum or conditional proof) presented in Chapter 8 to demonstrate the validity of the arguments. The proofs below may use any of the rules of inference or replacement rules given in Chapter 8. 1.(G • P) → K, E → Z, ~P → ~ Z, G → (E v L), therefore, (G • ~L) → K 2.(S v T) ↔ ~E, S → (F • ~G), A → W, T → ~W, therefore, (~E • A) → ~G 3.(S v T) v (U v W), therefore, (U v T) v (S v W) 4.~Q → (L → F), Q → ~A, F → B, L, therefore, ~A v B 5.~S → (F → L), F → (L → P), therefore, ~S → (F → P) Part 2: Below are basic arguments in English.
