• Abstract summary: We propose functions for integrating human knowledge abstracted as logic rules into the predictive behavior of a neural network. Unlike other existing neural logic approaches, the programmatic nature of these functions implies that they do not require any kind of special mathematical encoding.

• Abstract: Combining symbolic human knowledge with neural networks provides a rule-based ante-hoc explanation of the output. In this paper, we propose feature extracting functions for integrating human knowledge abstracted as logic rules into the predictive behavior of a neural network. These functions are embodied as programming functions, which represent the applicable domain knowledge as a set of logical instructions and provide a modified distribution of independent features on input data. Unlike other existing neural logic approaches, the programmatic nature of these functions implies that they do not require any kind of special mathematical encoding, which makes our method very general and flexible in nature. We illustrate the performance of our approach for sentiment classification and compare our results to those obtained using two baselines.

  We develop a function learning paradigm to explore the capacity of humans and neural network models in learning and reasoning with compositional functions. Our findings indicate that humans can make zero-shot generalizations on novel visual function compositions across interaction conditions. A comparison with a neural network model on the same task reveals that, through the meta-learning for compositionality (MLC) approach, a standard sequence-to-sequence Transformer can mimic human generalization patterns in composing functions.

  LOGICSEG is a holistic visual semantic that integrates neural inductive learning and logic reasoning with both rich data and symbolic knowledge. During fuzzy logic-based continuous relaxation, logical formulae are grounded onto data and neural computational graphs, hence enabling logic-induced network training. These designs together make LOGICSEG a general and compact neural-logic machine that is readily integrated into existing segmentation models.

  This paper presents a new symbolic-only method for the generation of hierarchical concept structures from complex sensory data.

  This work studies the design of neural networks that can process the weights or gradients of other neural networks. We focus on the permutation symmetries that arise in the weights of deep feedforward networks because hidden layer neurons have no inherent order. In our experiments, we find that permutation equivariant neural functionals are effective on a diverse set of tasks.

  An important characteristic of neural networks is their ability to learn representations of the input data with effective features for prediction. We consider learning problems motivated by practical data, where the labels are determined by a set of class relevant patterns and the inputs are generated from these. We prove that neural networks trained by gradient descent can succeed on these problems.
