Some Research Issues for Rule Learning

• Investigate advanced techniques for explanation generation, involving both plausible and deductive reasoning;

• Investigate various types of interactions by which the expert may give hints to the agent (such as pointing to an important object from the example) and may guide the agent in understanding the example;

• Investigate advanced techniques for multitype (deductive, inductive, and analogy-based) generalization of the example and the explanation into an analogy criterion, to make better use of agent's knowledge.
