In this report, I focused on my presentation for the upcoming ICAI ‘09 conference in Las Vegas. It has currently 18 slides.
I am also viewing the video lectures from the Summer Schools in Logic and Learning from Video Lectures dot Net. Thus, I have completed the Introduction to Logic video lectures.
I was also reading Michalski’s article on A Theory and Methodology of Induction Learning. Basically it was an article describing the induction process and some the issues associated with induction such as descriptive language, background information, examples, generalization, and hypothesis space. All this sounded familar when I was reading the two books on ILP. Induction is a common theme with the two books. Various familar algorithms are discussed amongst this material. It appears there are no easy answers in the induction of rules from examples.
