Abstract

This chapter explores the efficient learning of Horn formulas over finite totally ordered domains, a critical area in machine learning. The text delves into the concept of PAC-learning and the significance of Horn formulas, which can be understood as if-then rules. It discusses the challenges of binarization and introduces signed logic as a solution to avoid these issues. The chapter presents polynomial-time algorithms for both offline and online settings, ensuring that the learned formulas are both efficient and interpretable. The experiments reported demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach, making it a valuable resource for professionals in the field.
