✦ Synopsis

We argue that explanation-based generalisation as recently proposed in the machine learning literature is essentially equivalent to partial evaluation, a well-known technique in the functional and logic programming literature. We show this equivalence by analysing the definitions and underlying algorithms of both techniques, and by giving a PROLOG program which can be interpreted as doing either explanation-based generalisation or partial evaluation.

Partial abductive inference in Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) is intended as the process of generating the K most probable con®gurations for a set of unobserved variables (the explanation set). This problem is NP-hard and so exact computation is not always possible. In previous works genetic algori
