Weighting the Support Conjectures Inherit From Premises

Due to imprecise or incomplete information, ordinary reasoning often only allows us to reach conjectures rather than logical consequences. In previous papers, conjectures from a set of premises were mathematically characterized and classified into logical consequences, hypothesis, and speculations. The goal of this paper is to introduce a numerical value, or weight, providing a measure of up to which extent a conjecture is supported by the premises. Several examples are shown.
