[comp.ai] Discovery Systems

abbott@aerospace.aero.org (Russell J. Abbott) (08/10/89)

I have just come across a 1986 paper called "Discovery Systems" by
Kenneth Haase of MIT's AI Lab.  In it he describes work done on building
Cyrano, a "thoughtful re-implementation" of Lenat's Eurisko.  Can anyone
refer me to reports of progress since 1986 or of other work in this
area?  Thanks.

Last week I asked for up-to-date information on Cyrano, "a thoughtful
re-implementation of Eurisko" by Kenneth Haase.  So far, a number of
people have expressed interest in anything I found out, and others have
asked for the complete reference of the work I cited, but no one has
come up with a newer reference.

For those who are interested, the complete reference is:

Haase, Kenneth, W. Jr.  "Discovery Systems", Proc. Seventh European
Conference on AI, ECAI-86: Advances in AI--II (du Boulay, Hogg, and
Steels eds.), Elsevier (North-Holland), 1987, pp 111-120.
