he raven paradox, also known as Hempel's paradox or Hempel's ravens, is a paradoxarising from the question of what constitutesevidence for a statement. Observing objects that are neither black nor ravens may formally increase the likelihood that all ravens are black even though, intuitively, these observations are unrelated.

This problem was proposed by the logicianCarl Gustav Hempel in the 1940s to illustrate a contradiction between inductive logic andintuition.[1]
