Lab 4

The document describes the implementation of the Find-S algorithm to derive a maximally specific hypothesis from a set of training data stored in a CSV file. It initializes a hypothesis based on the first training example and iteratively refines it by comparing with subsequent examples marked as 'Yes'. The final output is a hypothesis indicating the conditions under which the target variable is positive, represented as ['yes', '?', '?', '?'].

implement and demonstrate the Find-S algorithm to output a
description of the set of all hypotheses consistent with the training
examples.

OUTPUT
The Given Training Data Set

['yes', 'Masters', 'Python', '30', 'Yes']


['yes', 'Bachelors', 'Python', '25', 'Yes']
['No', 'Bachelors', 'Java', '28', 'No']
['yes', 'Masters', 'Java', '40', 'Yes']
['No', 'Masters', 'Python', '35', 'No']

The initial value of hypothesis:


['0', '0', '0', '0']
Hypothesis: yes
Hypothesis: Masters
Hypothesis: Python
Hypothesis: 30

Find S: Finding a Maximally Specific Hypothesis

For Training Example No :0 the hypothesis is ['yes', 'Masters', 'Python', '30']


For Training Example No :1 the hypothesis is ['yes', '?', 'Python', '?']
For Training Example No :2 the hypothesis is ['yes', '?', 'Python', '?']
For Training Example No :3 the hypothesis is ['yes', '?', '?', '?']
For Training Example No :4 the hypothesis is ['yes', '?', '?', '?']

The Maximally Specific Hypothesis for a given Training Examples :

['yes', '?', '?', '?']
