Abstract
Abstract The problem of knowledge acquisition has been recognized as the major bottleneck in the development of knowledge-based systems. An encouraging approach to alleviate this problem is inductive learning. Inductive learning systems accept, as input, a set of data that represent instances of the problem domain and produce, as output, the rules of the knowledge base. Each data item is described by a set of attribute values and is assigned to a unique decision class. A common characteristic of the existing inductive learning systems, is that they are empirical in nature and do not take into account the implications of the inductive rule generation process on the performance of the resulting set of rules. That performance is assessed when the rules are used to classify new unlabelled data. This paper demonstrates that the performance of a rule set is a function of the rule generation and rule interpretation processes. These two processes are interrelated and should not be considered separately. The inter...
