Inference is guessing extra information from from a picture or text.

A inference is information that I can’t be seen from a picture. Inference is guessing things from observable information. For eg: I can see sheep so I can infer that they are on a farm.

`Inferring is guessing extra information from clues that you see from the picture.

 

Observable information is something that can be seen directly. Litreal information is information that is printed or written down.

Observable information can be seen without guessing information. For example in the first slide there is a boy wearing a yellow shirt. Lireal information is something that we read.

Observable information and litreal information are true pieces of informations on the text and image.
