Abstract
This paper contributes to the research on Learning in Databases in two ways. First, the concept of an inductive relation is introduced, as a natural development of other forms of intensional information, such a s views and relations defined deductively. Second, a class of top-down methods for computing such inductive relations is analyzed, and major problems produced by recursive and interdependent relations are consi dered.
