Relational databases are valuable resources for learning novel and interesting relations and concepts. In order to constraint the search through the large space of candidate definitions, users must tune the algorithm by specifying a language bias. Unfortunately, specifying the language bias is done via trial and error and is guided by the expert's intuitions. We propose AutoBias, a system that leverages information in the schema and content of the database to automatically induce the language bias used by popular relational learning systems. We show that AutoBias delivers the same accuracy as using manually-written language bias by imposing only a slight overhead on the running time of the learning algorithm.
