Abstract
In this article, I review Peirce's abduction in the context of Artificial Intelligence. First, I connect abduction from first-order theories with nonmonotonic reasoning. In particular, I consider relationships between abduction, default logic, and circumscription. Then, based on a first-order characterization of abduction, I show a design of abductive procedures that utilize automated deduction. With abductive procedures, proof procedures for nonmonotonic reasoning are also obtained from the relationship between abduction and nonmonotonic reasoning. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2002.
