Abstract: In many domains, an appropriate inductive bias is the MIN-FEATURES bias, which
prefers consistent hypotheses definable over as few features as possible. This paper
defines and studies this bias in Boolean domains. First, it is shown that any learning
algorithm implementing the MIN-FEATURES bias requires \Theta(
