ANNOTATION:  A  set  of  files  described  in  the file INDEX. It
consists of
* description a  competion based on Michalski's  problem the goal
of which  was to discover low-size  complexity Prolog program for
train classification,
* input data,
* one of the winning algorithms and its results.

Thanks  to   Katharina  Morik  and   Michael  Goebel  there   was
established  a link  to www  page of  the University of Dortmund.
There are  available data for  learning relational concepts  from
sensor data of a mobile robot.  The www page of the University of
Dortmund contains all the relevant information on the address:

Raymond J.  Mooney promissed to  make available Prolog  formation
version of data used in his paper on the ftp address:
ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/mooney/nl-ilp-data/past-tense
As soon as  this is ready there will be  established a pointer to
that dataset at the ml-archive.

W. Cohen  promissed either to work  out copyright restrictions or
to assemble a dataset similar to the data studied in this paper.



We are trying  to get hold of the data  sets collected in Oxford,
Leuven  and other  ILP nodes.  Moreover, we  have asked  for data
treated in the following papers:
