Automation of Reasoning pp Cite as. A proof procedure based on a theorem of Herbrand and utilizing the matching technique of Prawitz is presented. In general, Herbrand-type proof procedures proceed by generating ever increasing numbers of candidates for the truth-functionally contradictory statement the procedures seek. A trial is successful when some candidate is in fact a contradictory statement. In procedures to date the number of candidates developed before a contradictory statement is found if one is found varies roughly exponentially with the size of the contradictory statement. Although basically subject to the same rate of growth, the procedure introduced here attempts to drastically trim the number of candidates at an intermediate level of development. However, the number of candidate sets required to find these subsets of the contradictory set is generally much smaller than the number required to find the full contradictory set.
