In this paper, we introduce various kinds of approximations of a concept and propose a framework of approximate learning in case that a target concept could be outside the hypothesis space. We present some characterization theorems for approximately identifiability. In particular, we show a remarkable result that the upper-best approximate identifiability fromcompletedata is collapsed into the upper-best approximate identifiability frompositivedata. Further, some other characterizations for approximate identifiability from positive data are presented, where we establish a relationship between approximate identifiability and some important notions in quasi-order theory and topology theory. The results obtained in this paper are essentially related to the closure property of concept classes underinfiniteintersections (orinfiniteunions). We also show that there exist some interesting example concept classes with such properties (including specialized EFS's) by which an upper-best approximation ofanyconcept can be identifiable in the limit from positive data.
