Two approaches to explanation are compared: the deductive approach usually found in the literature, and a less common abductive approach. Both approaches are studied in the context of two different styles of representation.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/23","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/0023.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/23.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/bibtex/23","volume":{"slug":"1993","title":"Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1993","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1993/","year":1993,"location":"Chambéry, France","dates":"","editors":"Ruzena Bajcsy","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Automated Reasoning","track":"Automated Reasoning","number":23,"pages":{"first":160,"last":164},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
