Abstract

A clausal system IDR for inductive inference is proposed. Given back-ground knowledge ß and an observed fact B, each represented in terms of clauses, it infers a set H of clauses such that ßHO. It is inductively complete, i.e., can find every possible H regardless of whether O = □ or not. When hypothesis generation is suppressed, it simulates OL-deduction
