Abstract

Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) is concerned with construction of logic programs from examples. It shares many concerns of Machine Learning (ML), but is committed to logic. As logic can help to provide a basis for elaborating such a methodology for learning, the area of ILP has attracted a wide attention of many researchers. This paper reviews some of the methods and techniques in ML that exploit logic.
