Inferences about predictable events
1986
Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition
The conditions under which readers appear to infer such predictable outcomes were examined with three different retrieval paradigms: immediate recognition test, cued recall, and priming in word recognition ...
Results suggest that readers encode these inferences into memory only minimally, but that they can make use of a cue word that represents the inference (e.g., dead) both at the time of an immediate test ...
For example, probably the most well-documented inferences that readers make are inferences involving the repetition of an argument across different propositions. ...

Relevance feedback and inference networks
1993
Proceedings of the 16th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '93
Relevance feedback, which modi es queries using judgements of the relevance of a few, highly-ranked documents, has historically been an important method for increasing the performance of information retrieval ...
In this paper, we extend the inference network model introduced by Turtle and Croft to include relevance feedback techniques. ...

Nearest Neighbor Zero-Shot Inference
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
Overall, we show that augmenting a language model with retrieval can bring significant gains for zero-shot inference, with the possibility that larger retrieval models may yield even greater benefits. ...
We introduce kNN-Prompt, a simple and effective technique to use k-nearest neighbor (kNN) retrieval augmentation (Khandelwal et al., 2021) for zero-shot inference with language models (LMs). ...
We study the k-nearest neighbors language model (Khandelwal et al., 2020, kNN-LM) , which interpolates a neural LM's output distribution with a nearest-neighbor distribution constructed by retrieving ...

Inference during reading

Psychological review
Most current theories of text processing assume a constructionist view of inference processing. In this article, an alternative view is proposed, labeled the minimalist hypothesis. ...
The minimalist hypothesis is shown to be supported by previous research and by the results of several new experiments. ...

The impact of disablers on predictive inference
2014
Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition
People consider alternative causes when deciding whether a cause is responsible for an effect (diagnostic inference) but appear to neglect them when deciding whether an effect will occur (predictive inference ...
In Experiment 2, a causal Bayes network overestimated predictive inference when it was queried in the standard way, but this overestimation diminished when predictive inference was queried using an alternative ...
The legitimacy of this model is supported by studies of causal conditional reasoning. ...

Efficient Conformal Prediction via Cascaded Inference with Expanded Admission

Second, we amortize costs by conformalizing prediction cascades, in which we aggressively prune implausible labels early on by using progressively stronger classifiers -- again, while still providing valid ...
We first expand the CP correctness criterion to allow for additional, inferred "admissible" answers, which can substantially reduce the size of the predicted set while still providing valid performance ...
