Learning from Interpretation Transition using Feed-Forward Neural Networks

Understanding the evolution of dynamical systems is an ILP topic with many application domains, e.g., multi-agent systems, robotics and systems biology. In this paper, we present a method relying on an artificial neural network (NN) to learn rules describing the evolution of a dynamical system of Boolean variables. The experimental results show the potential of this approach, which opens the way to many extensions naturally supported by NNs, such as the handling of noisy data, continuous variables or time delayed systems.
