....the standard of reasoning and specific deviations from this standard are minimized. They adapt themselves to specific violations of presuppositions of CL such as inconsistencies. The system I present in this paper is an ampliative logic like the more recent systems presented in [4] 16] [5] and [17] In ampliative logics, the standard of reasoning is determined by the LLL and specific extensions of this standard are maximized. The consequence set one obtains with an ampliative logic is thus richer than the one obtained with CL. It will easily be observed from the next section that ....

.... proposed in this paper (to infer the maximally successful hypotheses from a set of background assumptions and observational statements) and abduction (in the sense of Modus Ponens in the wrong direction ) At this moment, some first results are available on adaptive logics for abduction (see [8], 16] and [18] Like LA k , these logics enable one to generate explanatory hypotheses for a set of observational statements. However, they do not take into account the success of these hypotheses. LA k di#ers from them in that it only delivers those explanatory hypotheses that are ....

....into account the success of these hypotheses. LA k di#ers from them in that it only delivers those explanatory hypotheses that are maximally successful. LA k is based on a new adaptive logic for abduction LA. LA exhibits several di#erences with the adaptive logics of abduction presented in [8] and [16] One is that LA validates inferences of the form A # B, B A, whereas the logics from [8] and [16] only validate inferences of the form (##) A(#) # B(#) B(#) A(#) Another di#erence is that, in LA, abduced hypotheses are not rejected when they are falsified. As we shall see, ....
