One of the students in my seminar on belief and uncertainty has just rediscovered the heuristics in AM, the mathematical discovery system which was developed by, I believe, Lenat. In the description of the work there were several references to questions that would be interesting to pursue further. Short of workg forward through the literature looking for back references to AM, I am asking people who read this for references to any follow on work to AM, particulary its heuristics for 'interestingness', which people in my seminar claim was a form of 'belief'. You are welcome to respond through the AIList to the extend that Ken Laws welcomes it. Alternately you may address your repsonses to pjurkat@sitvxc on BITNET. Thanks in advance.
