Abstraction is key to human and artificial intelligence as it allows one to see common structure in otherwise distinct objects or situations and as such it is a key element for generality in AI. Anti-unification (or generalization) is…

Anti-unification refers to the process of generalizing two (or more) goals into a single, more general, goal that captures some of the structure that is common to all initial goals. In general one is typically interested in computing what…

We study nominal anti-unification, which is concerned with computing least general generalizations for given terms-in-context. In general, the problem does not have a least general solution, but if the set of atoms permitted in…

Error: Peer-review process exposed an error in Theorem 1 that, unfourtunately, is not repairable. Idempotent semigroups are always finite. See Green and Rees [1952], Siekmann and Szab\'o [1981] for details Anti-unification is a fundamental…
