| Abstract: |
One of the most typical ways in which people learn is by inferring general rules from examples. In recent years, significant progress has been made toward understanding how learning from examples can occur, determining when it does occur, and identifying conditions that promote it. This paper reviews these results and then suggests a program of research and application that exploits improved understanding of this powerful basis for learning. (Author) |
