A Neural Model of Rule Generation in Inductive Reasoning
... Inductive reasoning is the process of using a set of examples to infer a general rule which both describes the relationships shared by those examples and allows us to predict future items in the set. For example, if a person were watching objects in a river or lake and saw a stick, a wooden rowboat, ...
