title: ``Logic and Learning"

abstract: Learning and learnability have been long standing topics of interests within the linguistic, computational, and epistemological accounts of inductive inference. This proximity relation between logic and learning is examined with respect to learning and belief revision, knowledge updating and efficiency, concentrating on knowledge updating.
