Abstract: . Given a system description and its observed behaviour, there usually exist several possible explanations of the situation. Different explanations may be contradicting and suggesting conflicting actions. So, in order to take proper actions sanctioned by the real situation, we need to single out an explanation that is most adequate to the reality. Existing methods for determining of such a best explanation require an extensive statistical knowledge about the system behaviour which often is... (Update)
