I am a graduate student studying Machine Learning.  I am looking
specifically at ``Learning by Analogical Reasoning''.  Some important
questions I would like to work on:

	Knowledge representation - which is/are best suited?
	Recognition of analogies - existing methods?
	Learning by analogical reasoning - existing algorithms?
	How does the representation influence the analogy/learning process?
	[Domain dependent/independent]

I would greatly appreciate hearing about any references and/or
information you may have.

Keywords: Learning (with) Analogy
	  Reasoning (with) Analogy
	  Representation (with) Analogy
