  Golem - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Having a golem servant was seen as the ultimate symbol of wisdom and holiness, and there are many tales of golems connected to prominent rabbis throughout the Middle Ages.
In 2005, the story of the Golem was returned to its Jewish roots, as a new comic strip in Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth depicted the Golem as a government-funded superhero protecting Israel from its domestic and existential difficulties.
The concept of golems and similar automata and simulacra is a popular one, and throughout the history of the hobby of roleplaying games, it has given birth to a vast array of variations upon the theme.

 GOLEM   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Among these rlggs, GOLEM chooses the one which covers the largest number of positive examples and is consistent with the negative examples.
GOLEM randomly selects a set of positive examples and constructs the rlggs of each of these examples and the clause obtained in the first construction step.
Therefore, GOLEM imposes some restrictions on the background knowledge and hypothesis language which ensure that the length of rlggs grows at worst polynomially with the number of positive examples.

It returns the Golem to his original mythical position (in the stories of the Prague golem, at any rate) as a defender of Jews against a dangerous world, thus reconnecting the myth with Jewish ideas of vulnerability.
Golems on Terry Pratchett's Discworld are derived from golems in Jewish mythology; early forms of a clay robot, supposedly awakened by a spell or priestly words to do people's bidding.
Technically a charity, it refuses to accept donations from any other than the freed golems, because the golems are clear they must free themselves by their own work.

 Inductive Logic Programming - Theory
The rlggs constructed by Golem were forced to have only a tractable number of literals by requiring that the set of possible hypotheses contain only definite clause theories that were ij-determinate.
ILP systems have severe restrictions on the form of numeric constraints that can be used.
ILP system require the ability to learn and make use of general constraints, rather than requiring large numbers of ground negative examples.

In the area of ILP the research of the Laboratory for Technical Software is concentrated to the practical applications of the ILP techniques to the engineering problems, especially in the mechanical engineering domain.
The ILP application to the finite element mesh design problem was the main project in the last few years in that field.
ILP algorithm GOLEM was employed to build a knowledge base for determining the resolution values for the finite element mesh, used for the engineering calculations of the stresses and strains in the physical structures [1].

Second we take the view of ILP problem as the inversion of deduction and present a series of systems which are based directly on the inverse techniques.
The specification of the ILP problem using first-order logic and a general scheme used to solve the ILP problem, will be presented in the second part of my talk.
It shows that the ILP problem is a problem of searching the ordered clause space for a correct theory, and specialization and generalization are two key operations needed by the searching process.

ILP can be explained more precisely by first describing the concepts of logic programming and induction separately.
ILP is divided into two major sub fields, interactive ILP and empirical ILP.
Some areas where ILP is applied: drugs' structure activity rule discoveries, learning rules for predicting protein secondary structure, automated program generation, learning rules for chess playing and in general as a tool for data mining and knowledge discovery in databases (See Lavrac N., Dzeroski S. (1993), Inductive Logic Programming - Techniques and).

An outline of the theory of ILP is given, together with a description of Golem and previous applications of ILP.
A case-study is then presented in which Golem is used to induce rules which predict, with a high accuracy (82\%), whether each of a series of attempted separations succeed or fail.
As far as these authors are aware, this is both the first biological grammar learnt using ILP and the first real-world scientific application of the ILP Bayesian approach to learning from positive examples.

 Learning rules for finite element mesh design   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
One advantage of ILP is that the examples and rules are expressed in predicate logic, so predicates can be used to describe geometric relations between different elements.
The problem of learning rules for determining the resolution of a FE mesh is therefore, to learn rules that determine the number of elements on an edge.
The data files are as used in the original Golem experiments, and are downloadable as one compressed TAR file.

The former are used as background knowledge for the ILP algorithm (P-Progol) and the latter are used as examples for the ILP algorithm.
ILP is differentiated from most other forms of Machine Learning (ML) both by its use of an expressive representation language and its ability to make use of logically encoded background knowledge.
In particular, language applications of ILP require revision and extension of a hierarchically defined set of predicates in which the examples are typically only provided for predicates at the top of the hierarchy.

 Inductive Logic Programming
Secondly, these three ILP systems do not handle noise well at all, when the detection of sub-events of time series is inherently noisy.
Thirdly, FOIL and GOLEM do not handle numerical attributes at all, and PROGOL does not do it particularly well, requiring a discretisation stage.
The net result is that Rodriguez et al have to carefully constrain the search algorithm of the ILP in order to induce reasonable clauses.

 [No title]
ILP is of interest to inductive machine learning researchers as it significantly extends the usual attribute-value respresentation and consequently enlarges the scope of machine learning applications; it is also of interest to logic programming researchers as it extends the basically deductive framework of logic programming with the use of induction.
On the other hand, the book is a guide/reference for an in-depth study of specific empirical ILP techniques, i.e., using attribute-value learners in an ILP framework and specialization techniques based on FOIL (Chapters 5-6,9-10) and their applications in medicine, mesh design and learning of qualitative models (Chapters 11-13).
The book will be of interest to engineers, researchers and graduate students in the field of artificial intelligence and database methodology, in particular in machine learning, logic programming, software engineering, deductive databases, and knowledge discovery in databases.

 Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The focus of this project is on prediction of protein secondary structures, which are the local arrangements of the amino acids, such as alpha helices and beta sheets and etc. My current objective in this project is to predict alpha helices directly from amino acid sequences, i.e., the primary structure.
Inductive Logic Programming (ILP), which belongs to machine learning paradigm, is used as the approach to achieve prediction.

An example is given to show that some inductive learning algorithm may not be correct in the long run if the limit behavior is not considered.
It is shown that the GOLEM system is not limit-correct.
Finally, a limit-correct inductive logic system, called the prioritized GOLEM system, is proposed as a solution.

 Learning rules for temporal fault diagnosis in satellites   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
We have applied ILP to a problem within the aerospace industry, namely the diagnosis of power-supply failures in a communications satellite.
In generating the examples, faults were provoked in all possible components, thus guaranteeing that the rules are complete and correct for all single faults.
We have developed such a formalism, which is based on temporal logic and which is suitable for ILP learning.

 Research grant: Inductive Logic Programming   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
During the course of the proposed fellowship it is intended to integrate ILP methods into the broader framework of software engineering practice.
Firstly, it is possible in the limit to distinguish between high and low time-complexity solutions by comparing the proof lengths for the given instances.
The motivation here is that many of the constraints used in existing first-order ILP systems are quite naturally expressed as statements in a higher-order logic.

In [Feng 91], ILP has been applied to a problem within the aerospace industry, namely the diagnosis of power-supply failures in a communications satellite.
Golem induced a set of rules for diagnosing power supply failures.
Because the power-supply's behaviour changes with time, the formalism used to describe the examples is based on temporal logic which proves to be suitable for ILP learning.

Importantly PROGOL was able to find a predictive relationship within a subset of compounds that was not previously identified by experts.
This proposal extends stems from an earlier study using GOLEM to derive topological relationships governing the a/b class of proteins (King et al., 1994).
Data mining was performed on a topological database of protein structures established by Dr Rawling's group at the ICRF (Rawlings et al., 1985; Clark et al., 1991).

 Learning   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
One of the advantages of ILP algorithms is their much broader range of applicability.
Examples of ILP systems using inverse resolution are GOLEM [Muggleton, 1992], which generated predictions of protein structure from sequence data; it was also used to predict the theraputic use of drugs based on their molecular structures [King, 1992].
The other approach to ILP is essentially a generalization of decision tree learning to first-order logic.

 Citebase - Induction of First-Order Decision Lists: Results on Learning the Past Tense of English Verbs
Due to the expressiveness of first-order logic, ILP methods can learn relational and recursive concepts that cannot be represented in the attribute/value representations assumed by most machine-learning algorithms.
The development of Foidl was motivated by a failure we observed when applying existing ILP methods to a particular problem, that of learning the past tense of English verbs.
Although ILP methods seem more appropriate for this problem, our initial attempts to apply Foil and Golem to past-tense learning gave very disappointing results (Califf, 1994).
