DIAGaRa: An Incremental Algorithm for Inferring Implicative Rules from Examples

An approach is proposed for inferring implicative logical rules from examples. The concept of a good diagnostic test for a given set of positive examples lies in the basis of this approach. The process of inferring good diagnostic tests is considered as a process of inductive common sense reasoning. The incremental approach to learning algorithms is implemented in an algorithm DIAGaRa for inferring implicative rules from examples.
