• Title: An Insect-Inspired Randomly, Weighted Neural Network with Random Fourier Features For Neuro-Symbolic Relational Learning
• Authors: Jinyung Hong, Theodore P. Pavlic
• Abstract summary: We propose a Randomly Weighted Feature Network that incorporates randomly drawn, untrained weights in an encoder that uses an adapted linear model as a decoder. Because of this special representation, RWFNs can effectively learn the degree of relationship among inputs by training only a linear decoder model. We demonstrate that compared to LTNs, RWFNs can achieve better or similar performance for both object classification and detection of the part-of relations between objects in SII tasks.

• Abstract: Insects, such as fruit flies and honey bees, can solve simple associative learning tasks and learn abstract concepts such as "sameness" and "difference", which is viewed as a higher-order cognitive function and typically thought to depend on top-down neocortical processing. Empirical research with fruit flies strongly supports that a randomized representational architecture is used in olfactory processing in insect brains. Based on these results, we propose a Randomly Weighted Feature Network (RWFN) that incorporates randomly drawn, untrained weights in an encoder that uses an adapted linear model as a decoder. The randomized projections between input neurons and higher-order processing centers in the input brain is mimicked in RWFN by a single-hidden-layer neural network that specially structures latent representations in the hidden layer using random Fourier features that better represent complex relationships between inputs using kernel approximation. Because of this special representation, RWFNs can effectively learn the degree of relationship among inputs by training only a linear decoder model. We compare the performance of RWFNs to LTNs for Semantic Image Interpretation (SII) tasks that have been used as a representative example of how LTNs utilize reasoning over first-order logic to surpass the performance of solely data-driven methods. We demonstrate that compared to LTNs, RWFNs can achieve better or similar performance for both object classification and detection of the part-of relations between objects in SII tasks while using much far fewer learnable parameters (1:62 ratio) and a faster learning process (1:2 ratio of running speed). Furthermore, we show that because the randomized weights do not depend on the data, several decoders can share a single randomized encoder, giving RWFNs a unique economy of spatial scale for simultaneous classification tasks.

  Recent work has pushed the bounds of universal approximation by showing that arbitrary functions can similarly be learned by tuning smaller subsets of parameters. We provide theoretical and numerical evidence demonstrating that feedforward neural networks with fixed random weights can be trained to perform multiple tasks by learning biases only. Our results are relevant to neuroscience, where they demonstrate the potential for behaviourally relevant changes in dynamics without modifying synaptic weights.

In our experiments, we find that permutation equivariant neural functionals are effective on a diverse set of tasks.
