% 3. Past Usage:
%    -- testing concept learning software, in particular
%       an experimental method to learn two-tiered concept descriptions.
%       The data was used to learn the description of an acceptable
%       and unacceptable contract.
%       The unacceptable contracts were either obtained by interviewing
%       experts, or by inventing near misses.
%       Examples of use are described in:
