Extract

In his thought-provoking paper, Valdes-Perez (1996, this volume) carefully describes the methodology and future directions for research in Machine Scientific Discovery (MSD), as viewed predominantly from the standpoint of computer science. Here, I shall offer some remarks from the angle of domain sciences (despite the fact that my basic area of expertise is actually general and computational linguistics).
