In science, an inference refers to reasonable conclusions or possible hypotheses drawn from a small sampling of data. The adjective "small" can be interpreted as far less than all the possible data that can be collected on a specific subject. Scientists make inferences all the time, which may prove correlations, but don't prove cause. In fact most "known" scientific facts, are inferences since it would be impossible to fully gather all material on a subject.
