Active Exploration for Learning Symbolic Representations PMC

AlphaZero, where you have this chess playing engine, which gets superhuman. You use neural guided search, where the network serves as an intuition. And it can sort of think about, okay, now I’m in this position, and I think I could do this. And then it can, with self play, sort of go further into the direction, it can evaluate and learn, using this approach very effectively, and it becomes superhuman.

It is based on LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Application), a model created by Google. Bard can dialogue with their interlocutors, and according to the company, it can be used as a creative and helpful collaborator, as it can help the user organize and create new ideas that can be used in several environments, from the artistic to the corporate side. This AI constantly learns as it picks up patterns from trillions of words that help predict a reasonable response to the user’s questions or demands.

Afterwards, learning operators are turned off and we evaluate the communicative success of the agent in condition B for the remainder of the interactions. We expect the agents to remain at a stable level of communicative success when making the transition from condition A to B. We again evaluate on both the simulated environment and the noisy environment. Additionally, we vary the amount of training interactions on condition A to test the speed at which the learner agent can acquire useable concepts.

The novelty of the proposed work lies in the modeling of the decoding problem through a reconfigurable system. Since, it is crucial to study the system performance under low SNR, as the systems are more error-prone at lower SNRs. The proposed system can perform well, even under low SNR scenarios, and can be utilized for decoding the users’ data in next-generation PD-NOMA systems, that currently plan to use the SIC decoding process. SIC and SC are the two processes for such systems, with the former at the receiver side, and the latter at the transmitter side, respectively. As per the authors’ knowledge, the PD-NOMA networks employ SIC to differentiate between the users’ messages, and as such the limitations of SIC viz.

An introduction to reconfigurable systems

At the Turing award session and fireside conversation with Daniel Kahneman, there was a clear convergence towards integrating symbolic reasoning and deep learning. Kahneman made his point clear by stating that on top of deep learning, a System 2 symbolic layer is needed. This is reassuring for neurosymbolic AI going forward as a single more cohesive research community that can agree about definitions and terminology, rather than a community divided as AI has been up to now. For example, in 2013, Czech researcher Mikolov co-published Word2Vec paper (later also FastText). Then in 2017, transformer architecture was able to accept multiple words. These models are able to represent entire paragraphs of text in context as a vector, and not only each word individually.

And there is nothing you can glean from the physical properties of these pulses to make what they mean for a human. “Symbols meaning is rendered independent of the properties of the symbol’s substrate.” And we kind of got into that yesterday. And they say, “The idealized notion of a symbol wherein meaning is established purely by convention.” So then if you look at nature as an example for symbols, is it really then of the subjective sense that’s necessary for culture to define what that symbol means? Or just the laws of physics are enough to say, “Yeah, regardless of who interpreted it, it’s a snowflake regardless of how it looks.” But the snowflake is, oh my God, I’m on something, the snowflake is bound to certain laws of physics that define how it can grow.

The term AI, coined in the 1950s, refers to the simulation of human intelligence by machines. It covers an ever-changing set of capabilities as new technologies are developed. Technologies that come under the umbrella of AI include machine learning and deep learning. Instruction tuning is a common fine-tuning method that has been shown to improve performance and allow models to better follow in-context examples. One shortcoming, however, is that models are not forced to learn to use the examples because the task is redundantly defined in the evaluation example via instructions and natural language labels. For example, on the left in the figure above, although the examples can help the model understand the task (sentiment analysis), they are not strictly necessary since the model could ignore the examples and just read the instruction that indicates what the task is.

As of 2020, many sources continue to assert that machine learning remains a subfield of AI. The main disagreement is whether all of ML is part of AI, as this would mean that anyone using ML could claim they are using AI. Others have the view that not all of ML is part of AI where only an ‘intelligent’ subset of ML is part of AI. Google showed over 10 million random YouTube videos to a brain.

Neural-symbolic computing has been an active area of research for many years seeking to bring together robust learning in neural networks with reasoning and explainability via symbolic representations for network models. In this paper, we relate recent and early research results in neurosymbolic AI with the objective of identifying the key ingredients of the next wave of AI systems. We focus on research that integrates in a principled way neural network-based learning with symbolic knowledge representation and logical reasoning. The insights provided by 20 years of neural-symbolic computing are shown to shed new light onto the increasingly prominent role of trust, safety, interpretability and accountability of AI. We also identify promising directions and challenges for the next decade of AI research from the perspective of neural-symbolic systems. More recent approaches to concept learning are dominated by deep learning techniques.
