Analysis of Behavior of Chemical Molecules: Rule Formation on Non-Homogeneous Classes of Objects
Proceedings of the Third International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Applications and Implications of A. I.. Pages 67-75.
Abstract
An information processing model of some important aspects of inductive reasoning is presented within the context of one scientific discipline . Given a collection of experimental (mass spectrometry) data from several chemical molecules the computer program described here separates the molecules into "wellbehaved" subclasses and selects from the space of all explanatory processes the "characteristic" processes for each subclass . The definitions of "well - behaved" and " characteristic " embody several heuristics which are discussed . Some results of the program are discussed which have been useful to chemists and which lend credibility to this approach.
