Abstract:
We investigate analogy-driven proof plan construction as a control strategy in proof planning. The decisions taken in planning a source theorem are replayed for planning a similar target theorem. Our analogy procedure, ABALONE, implemented on top of the proof planner CL A M, is capable of a controlled replay of the source planning process. ABALONE provides additional control at key points of the target planning process by suggesting induction schemes, speculating lemmas, and patching failed plans. 1
