Retrodiction is the process of inferring past states or events based on current or present data and knowledge. It is a form of reasoning that works in the opposite direction of prediction. While prediction looks forward to forecast future events or states from current information, retrodiction seeks to reconstruct or deduce what must have happened in the past to result in the current circumstances. Retrodiction is often used in various fields, including science, history, and data analysis.
