Foundations of Inductive Logic Programming

The state of the art of the bioengineering aspects of the morphology of microorganisms and their relationship to process performance are described in this volume. Materials and methods of the digital image analysis and mathematical modeling of hyphal elongation, branching and pellet formation as well as their application to various fungi and actinomycetes during the production of antibiotics and enzymes are presented.

Thus, clearly, finding out which formulas <j> are logical consequences of some
set of formulas E is crucial to many areas of artificial intelligence, including
inductive logic programming. Accordingly, we would like to have a procedure, an
algorithm, which could find out whether or not E (= 4> is the case. What is an
algorithm? We will only give an informal explanantion here, referring to [HU79,
CLR90] for the more formal details. Intuitively, an algorithm is a procedure, a
specific sequence ...
