It has been a pleasure and an honor to have participated in this colossal project [1921 pages!] (managed and edited by Lorenzo Magnani) with the best abduction experts in the world. I am thrilled to have collaborated with those who have taught me so much with their work.

Fresh from the oven! An article I've written together with Anna Estany has been published: Concerning the Epistemology of Design: The Role of the Eco-Cognitive Model of Abduction in Pragmatism https://mdpi.com/2220720 #mdpiphilosophies via

This is the problem of #ConceptFormation, #ParadigmChange, or #ParadigmDevelopment.

C.S. #Peirce's #Pragmatism treats these issues under the #Logic of #Abduction or #Hypothesis.

Oh look, what a cool piece on #AI, but also '#Intelligence', I suppose.

Posing once again the question: if science was exclusively done by computation leveraging brute force, would we still inhabit a divinely overcomplex, geocentric cosmos? If not, what would happen if we just took the simplest yet valid model, regardless of its implications and assumptions?

What an imagination of deus ex machina and human humiliation.

Con placer comparto esta pieza escrita a cuatro manos con Agustín Adúriz-Bravo, publicada hoy en la Revista Brasileira de História da Ciência (RBHC). Tiene los aromas de Buenos Aires, Domodossola, Barcelona y Dublín, los lugares desde donde fue escrita. Por diversas razones personas me siento especialmente contento con su versión final y espero de corazón que les resulte interesante.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of exchanging ideas about the possibility of thinking #abductivereasoning in the cognitive processes of non-human animals. Woosuk Park wrote an exciting chapter on this, so I am sharing it with you:

Seeing the interest in #abductivereasoning, I share the following article. I collaborated with experts in didactics to incorporate abductive inference in #ScienceEducation. In it, an introductory section on abduction is provided:

The introduction to the section "Abduction in Education and Human Sciences" of the Handbook of Abductive Cognition has been published today:

Seeing as it is customary, here goes my #introduction (#introductions #universeodon):

In my case, I am Dr. Alger Sans Pinillos, a Catalan (from Barcelona) currently living in the middle of the Italian Alps and doing research as a Postdoc in #philosophyofscience at the University of Pavia.

I am interested in #philosophy and #cognitivescience. I often write about #abductivereasoning . I enjoy #poetry, #pipesmoking, and #coffee!

Bests!
