cedure Learning as Program Learning 30.1 Introduction Broadly speaking, the learning of predicates and schemata (executable procedures) is done in CogPrime via a number of different methods, including for example PLN inference and concept predicatization (to be discussed in later chapters). Most of thes

breathe, therefore people breathe." Second: • "'Variable fulfillment query"'. Given a target Link (Atoms may be Nodes or Links) with one or more VariableAtoms among its targets, figure out what Atoms may be put in place of these VariableAtoms, so as to give the target Link a high strength* confidence (i.e.
