1. The act or process of inferring by deduction or induction.
Though it may chance to be right in the conclusions,
it is yet unjust and mistaken in the method of
inference. --Glanvill.
2. That which inferred; a truth or proposition drawn from
another which is admitted or supposed to be true; a
conclusion; a deduction. --Milton.
These inferences, or conclusions, are the effects of
reasoning, and the three propositions, taken all
together, are called syllogism, or argument. --I.
Watts.
Syn: Conclusion; deduction; consequence.
Usage: Inference, Conclusion. An inference is literally
that which is brought in; and hence, a deduction or
induction from premises, -- something which follows as
certainly or probably true. A conclusion is stronger
than an inference; it shuts us up to the result, and
terminates inquiry. We infer what is particular or
probable; we conclude what is certain. In a chain of
reasoning we have many inferences, which lead to the
ultimate conclusion. ``An inference is a proposition
which is perceived to be true, because of its
connection with some known fact.' ``When something is
simply affirmed to be true, it is called a
proposition; after it has been found to be true by
several reasons or arguments, it is called a
conclusion.' --I. Taylor. InterferenceInterference In`ter*fer"ence, n. [See Interfere.]
1. The act or state of interfering; as, the stoppage of a

2. (Physics) The mutual influence, under certain conditions,
of two streams of light, or series of pulsations of sound,
or, generally, two waves or vibrations of any kind,
producing certain characteristic phenomena, as colored
fringes, dark bands, or darkness, in the case of light,
silence or increased intensity in sounds; neutralization
or superposition of waves generally.
Note: The term is most commonly applied to light, and the
undulatory theory of light affords the proper
explanation of the phenomena which are considered to be
produced by the superposition of waves, and are thus
substantially identical in their origin with the
phenomena of heat, sound, waves of water, and the like.
3. (Patent Law) The act or state of interfering, or of
claiming a right to the same invention.
Interference figures (Optics), the figures observed when
certain sections of crystallized bodies are viewed in
converging polarized light; thus, a section of a uniaxial
crystal, cut normal to the vertical axis, shows a series
of concentric colored rings with a single black cross; --
so called because produced by the interference of luminous
waves.
