Inductive Learning Hypothesis
- With $n$ attributes, each with 3 values, we have that
\[|H| = 3^n\]
- We assume that one of those hypothesis will match the
target function $c(x)$.
- Furthermore, all we know about $c(x)$ is given by the
examples we have seen. We must assume that the future examples
will resemble past ones.
- The inductive learning hypothesis states that
any hypothesis found to approximate the target function well
over a sufficiently large set of training examples will also
approximate the target function well over other unobserved
examples.
- Why should this be true? Its not true for the stock
market, or is it?
