		Call for Papers ECAI-92 Workshop           \

	 	Logical Approaches to Machine Learning

Inductive Logic Programming (ILP), a novel subarea of Machine Learning combining
Machine Learning and Logic Programming, is studying how to apply a
logical formalisation to
the tasks of generalisation and specialisation from examples and introduction
of new terms. In this workshop, we would like to address these issues and
to develop other, less frequently adressed ones, such as the knowledge
acquisition aspects of ILP.


Areas of interest of the workshop include any work that formalises a learning
problem using a logic programming framework. In particular: generalisation and
specialisation techniques, abstraction, abduction, non monotonic learning,
non monotonic logic, introduction of new terms, noise, study of bias,
learnability, etc...

We encourage submissions of original results and ideas, either based on
theory and / or implementation as well as synthesis or comparison papers.
The second international ILP workshop will be held this year in Tokyo, in
connection to FGCS92. The  Logical Approach to Machine Learning
workshop is an
opportunity for European researchers who will not attend ILP92
to present their work. Those who will attend ILP92 can present their
work or summary of papers presented in Japan.
The workshop will be held on the 4th of August. 5 copies of extended
abstracts (max 5 pages) should be sent to Celine Rouveirol before  15th
April. Notification of acceptance will be sent by 15th May,
the camera ready version
of papers must be received imperatively by 15th June. Preprint of the
accepted papers will be distributed at the workshop.
