Abstract: Theory specialization is the process of using examples to specialize an overgeneral domain theory. This paper shows by example that many different types of background knowledge can be encoded as overgeneral theories, and further, that these theories can be specialized using existing theory specialization techniques. A consequence of this is that theory specialization techniques are a surprisingly general way of making use of background knowledge. 1 INTRODUCTION Several recent papers ... (Update)

.... programming, the top down search for an inductive hypothesis has been performed by using various specialization techniques [14, 2, 8, 12, 10, 3, 7, 13, 16, 9]. In this work, we assume that the overly general hypothesis is given as a logic program. The problem of finding an...
