Inductive vs. Analytical Learning
- In inductive learning the learner is given $H$ and $D=
\{\langle x_1, f(x_1) \rangle,\ldots,\langle x_n,
f(x_n)\rangle\}$, where $f(x_i)$ is the target value for
instance $x_i$. Learner must pick $h \in H$ that is consistent
with $D$.
- In analytical learning the learner is given
$H$, $D$, and a domain theory $B$. Learner must
pick $h \in H$ that is consistent with both $D$, and
$B$.
- We say that $h$ is consistent with $B$ if
\[
\neg (B \rightarrow \neg h) \]
