The Use of Analogy in Incremental SBL

Analogy is clearly one of the key issues of Learning, since it constitutes a major tool for constructing new concepts, or new rules or new strategies. Our view of analogy is that it must take into account not only the resemblances within a set of different datas but also the differences among them. We describe how to apply this view of the analogical process to incremental similarity-based learning.
