The third and final of our (planned) short tutorials on key modes of critical reasoning. Abduction is commonly called "inference to the best explanation"...so it's easy to see why this concept is important for data scientists. Huub Brouwer (Utrecht University) walks us through a brief tutorial on how even a world-famous infer-er can get this wrong and how data scientists can avoid the same mistake.
