Find-S Algorithm
- Initialize $h$ to the most specific hypothesis in $H$
- For each positive training instance $x$
- For each attribute constraint $a_{i}$ in $h$:
- If the constraint $a_{i}$ in $h$ is satisfied by
$x$ Then do nothing
- Else replace $a_{i}$ in $h$ by the next more general constraint that is satisfied by $x$
- Output hypothesis $h$
- Guaranteed to output the most specific hypothesis within
$H$ that is consistent with the positive training
examples.
- Notice that negative examples are ignored.
