Neuware - th This volume contains the papers presented at the 13 International Conference on Discovery Science (DS 2010) held in Canberra, Australia, October 6 8, 2010. The main objective of the Discovery Science (DS) conference series is to provide an open forum for intensive discussions and the exchange of new ideas and information among researchers working in the area of automating sci- ti c discovery or working on tools for supporting the human process of disc- ery in science. It has been a successful arrangement in the past to co-locate the DS conference with the International Conference on Algorithmic Learning Theory (ALT). This combination of ALT and DS allows for a comprehensive treatment of the whole range, from theoretical investigations to practical app- cations. Continuing in this tradition, DS 2010 was co-located with the 21st ALT conference (ALT 2010). The proceedings of ALT 2010 were published as a twin volume (6331) of the LNCS series.
