For several years, Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) has been developed into two main directions: on one hand, the classical symbolic framework of ILP has been extended to deal with numeric values and a few works have emerged, stating that an interesting domain for modeling symbolic and numeric values in ILP was Constraint Logic Programming; on the other hand, applications of ILP in the context of Data Mining have been developed, with the benefit that ILP systems were able to deal with databases composed of several relations. In this paper, we propose a new framework for learning, expressed in terms of Constraint Databases: from the point of view of ILP, it gives a uniform way to deal with symbolic/numeric values and it extends the classical framework by allowing the representation of infinite sets of positive/ negative examples; from the point of view of Data Mining, it can be applied not only to relational databases, but also to spatial databases. A prototype has been implemented and experiments are currently in progress.
