Responsibility, as referred to in everyday life, as explored in moral philosophy and debated in jurisprudence, is a multiform, ill-defined but inescapable notion for reasoning about actions.

Following this hypothesis, and building upon simplicity theory, the paper proposes a novel computational approach.
