FIND-S Algorithm : Finding a<br />

Maximally Specific Hypothesis<br />

• Initialize h to the most specific hypothesis in H<br />

• For each positive training instance x<br />

• For each attribute constraint a i in h<br />

• If the constraint a i is satisfied by x<br />

• Then do nothing<br />

• Else replace a i in h by the next more general constraint that<br />

is satisfied by x<br />

• Output hypothesis h<br />

3<br />

• Note: Find-S ignores negative training instances<br />

• Since negative instances will be classified as negative by<br />

hypothesis anyhow, as long as samples are not inconsistent
