一、前言 定理的机器证明是人工智能近代主攻的课题之一。早在十六世纪,人类就开始考虑这一问题,但由于历史条件的限制没能付诸实践。从本世纪六十年代以来,随着大型高速计算机的发展,人们继前辈之理论,集众人之精华研究出一个个精致的定理的机器证明方法,从而开创了这一学科的新纪元,为人类智力提供了 I. Foreword Theorem Machine Proof is one of the main topics of artificial intelligence in modern times. As early as the 16th century, human beings began to consider this issue, but due to the historical conditions, they failed to put it into practice. Since the 1960s, along with the development of large-scale high-speed computers, people have developed sophisticated proof theorems based on the theories of their predecessors and the essence of the people to create a new era of this discipline, which is the human intelligence provided
