Preface

The 11th international conference on Inductive Logic Programming, ILP 2001, was held in Strasbourg, France, September 9–11, 2001. ILP 2001 was co-located with the 3rd international workshop on Logic, Learning, and Language (LLL 2001), and nearly co-located with the joint 12th European Conference on Machine Learning (ECML 2001) and 5th European conference on Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases (PKDD 2001). Continuing a series of international conferences devoted to Inductive Logic Programming and Relational Learning, ILP 2001 is the central annual event for researchers interested in learning structured knowledge from structured examples and background knowledge. One recent one major challenge for ILP has been to contribute to the exponential emergence of Data Mining, and to
