Abstract

This paper illustrates how many empirical-based learning systems are adversely affected by disjunctive regions in instance space. Constructive induction of new features is proposed as a way to overcome the problems caused by disjuncts. A simple model for feature construction is presented with examples drawn from existing systems.
