This research develops artificial intelligence methods for              the automatic formulation and use of concepts by computer                       systems. In particular, techniques which enable a machine to                    develop concepts based on its ability to "explain" instances                    presented to it are combined with methods to rapidly "classify"                 new instances into one of its learned categories.  The goal is to               convert the machine's  inefficient but correct "explanation"                    procedures into efficient classification routines.  Methods                     used will include both symbol-processing strategies and                         newer, "connectionist" approaches.                                                      The importance of this research is that exploratory                     artificial intelligence programs, now capable of some limited                   learning, must be substantially improved.  In particular,                       artificial intelligence systems must be developed to both learn                 new categories (concepts) efficiently and apply these categories                rapidly when presented with a high rate of data and new                         experience.
