Abstract:
This paper discusses some key issues about an interactive learning approach
based on the theory of monotone Boolean functions. We present some key problems
and the main steps of some algorithms for solving them. The concept of Shannon functions
is used as a criterion for algorithmic optimality. The proposed approach allows for the
possibility to decrease the number of positive and negative examples needed to infer a monotone
Boolean function, and thus can make this type of machine learning systems more applicable.
Key Words:
