Abstract

We discuss an approach of concept approximation based on judgment rather than on partial containment of sets only. This approach seems to be much more general than the traditional one. However, it requires developing some new logical tools for reasoning based on judgment, which is often expressed in natural language.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The 2011 winner of the ACM Turing Award, the highest distinction in computer science, “for his fundamental contributions to the development of computational learning theory and to the broader theory of computer science” (http://people.seas.harvard.edu/~valiant/researchinterests.htm).

  2. 2.

    More general cases are considered, e.g., in articles [11, 12].
