The use of prior knowledge in learning.

Question 4

What is Explanation-based learning (EBL)

Answer 4

Explanation-based learning (EBL) extracts general rules from single examples by explaining the examples and generalizing the explanation.

Question 5

What is Relevance-based learning (RBL)

Answer 5

Relevance-based learning (RBL) uses prior knowledge in the form of determinations to identify the relevant attributes, thereby generating a reduced hypothesis space and speeding up learning.
