Abstract:Proof plans provide a technique for guiding the search for a proof in the context of tactical style reasoning. We propose an extension to this technique in which failure may be exploited in the search for a proof. This extension is based upon the concept of planning critics. In particular we illustrate how proof critics may be used to patch proof plans in the domain of inductive proofs.
