Announcing a new electronic mailing list called INDUCTIVE (Inductive Learning Group) This mailing list is initiated to provide a separate forum for discussing various scientific issues related to INDUCTIVE (LEARNING) PROCESSES. We strongly feel that these processes are of central importance to cognitive science in general and artificial intelligence (AI) in particular, and that so far they have not been given the attention and effort they deserve. Moreover, we feel that the success of the entire enterprise (of cognitive science) depends on the success of the effort to model the inductive learning processes understood sufficiently broadly. We also believe that the current (and the previous) subdivisions of cognitive psychology and AI impedes (and has impeded) the progress of both enterprises, since there are serious reasons to believe that all cognitive processes are built on top of the inductive learning processes. We cordially invite various researchers from the above two disciplines (including those working in Pattern Recognition and Neural Networks) to join this supervised mailing list. As a first question we propose to discuss the very definition of the inductive learning process: Inductive learning is a process by means of which, given a finite positive training set C+ from a possibly infinite class (or category) C and a finite set C- from the complement of C, an agent is able to reach a state (of inductive generalization) which allows it to form an idea about, and REPRESENTATION of, the class C. This state, in turn, enables the agent to recognize a new object as belonging to class C or not. The subscription to this list is free. This list will be moderated and we reserve the right to terminate the membership of those members who abuse the list. You may subscribe to the list by simply sending the following text to the address INDUCTIVE-SERVER@UNB.CA SUBSCRIBE INDUCTIVE FIRSTNAME LASTNAME
