Inference matrix
Origin: LatInferre, matrix, -īcis
A matrix linking conditional statements of the sort "if A (on the rows), then B (in the columns)." Where cross impact matrixes are rectangular and deal with conditional probabilities of occurrence of a set of future events, inference matrixes deal with statements that are linked probabilistically. An extensive field of specialized logic and statistics is based on the use of such matrixes.
Spanish: Matríz de inferencia
