Abstract

M~ny studio• of ~nalogy in Artiflci:.llntelligence have focuaed on ~n:.logy u :. heuristic mechanism to guide search ~nd aimplify problem aolving or u a buia for forming gener~lizationa . Thia paper examine• analogical leaming, where an~logy ia used to conjecture new knowledge about some domain. A theory of Verification-Baud Analogical Learning ia preaented which ~ddre11e1 the tenuous n~ture of ~nalogic~lly inferred concepti ~nd deacribea procedure• that can be used to increase confidence in the inferred knowledge. The theory describe• how ~nalogy may be uaed to diocover ~nd refine acientiflc modet. of the physical world . Ex~mplea ~re t~ken from an implemented ayatem, which diecoven qualit~tive modele of proceuea ouch u liquid flow and heat flow .
