Popis: The success of machine learning methods for inducing models from data crucially depends on the proper incorporation of background knowledge about the model to be learned. The idea of constraint-regularized learning is to em- ploy fuzzy set-based modeling techniques in order to express such knowl- edge in a flexible way, and to formalize it in terms of fuzzy constraints. Thus, background knowledge can be used to appropriately bias the learn- ing process within the regularization framework of inductive inference. After a brief review of this idea, the paper offers an operationalization of constraint- regularized learning. The corresponding framework is based on evolutionary methods for model optimization and employs fuzzy rule bases of the Takagi- Sugeno type as flexible function approximators.
