Abstract :
A procedure is proposed for combining two diagnostic strategies: cognitive processes for recognition and inferential processes for posterior reasoning. Cognitive processes are represented using the example of visual inheritance of essential properties of an image, whereas inferential mechanisms are triggered by the inheritance of these visual properties. The proposed approach supplies a universal procedure (in the sense that everybody is able to identify an object by its silhouette) and a cognitive experience
