    I am still exploring the idea of grammatical system induction.

    I am not sure what you mean by grammatical induction. Is that not 
equivalent with
    the omega-induction principles, like with PA?


It is described in this document:

A couple of points I don't understand. First, G is a set of sentences. I'm not sure what "any" means. Does it mean G is all grammatical sentences? Is G assumed finite, or countable? Second, why is H defined as an element of G^n (Cartesian product of sets) instead of just a subset of G? Third, if [H->G] is a function doesn't that implies that T(H) ends with a unique G, which is not generally true of inferences.
