Systems That Learn, 2nd Edition
An Introduction to Learning Theory
Sanjay Jain, Daniel N. Osherson, James S. Royer and Arun Sharma

Table of Contents and Sample Chapters

Formal learning theory is one of several mathematical approaches to the study of intelligent adaptation to the environment. The analysis developed in this book is based on a number theoretical approach to learning and uses the tools of recursive-function theory to understand how learners come to an accurate view of reality. This revised and expanded edition of a successful text provides a comprehensive, self-contained introduction to the concepts and techniques of the theory. Exercises throughout the text provide experience in the use of computational arguments to prove facts about learning.
