Timely notes about the JSM method for automatic hypothesis generation

  • Published:
Automatic Documentation and Mathematical Linguistics Aims and scope

Abstract

The main principles of the JSM method for automatic hypothesis generation are considered along with the problems of its development. The formalization of J.S. Mill’s joint method of agreement and difference is proposed and the concept of a JSM strategy is defined. The article also considers two possible development directions of artificial intelligence and its connection with cognitive research.
