Nonmonotonic Inferences in Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that by introducing an appropriate schema concept and exploiting the higher-level features of a resonance function in a neural network it is possible to define a form of nonmonotonic inference relation between the input and the output of the network. This inference relation satisfies some of the most fundamental postulates for nonmonotonic logics. The construction presented in the paper is an example of how symbolic features can emerge from the subsymbolic level of a neural network.

Nonmonotonic Logic and Neural Networks
A puzzle in the philosophy of mind concerns the gap between symbolic and subsymbolic (neuron-like) modes of processing (e.g. Smolensky 1988). The aim of this paper is to overcome this gap by viewing symbolism as a highlevel description of the properties of (a class of) neural networks. Combining methods of algebraic semantics and nonmonotonic logic, the possibility of integrating both modes of ...
متن کاملNonmonotonic Inferences and Neural Networks
There is a gap between two different modes of computation: the symbolic mode and the subsymbolic (neuron-like) mode. The aim of this paper is to overcome this gap by viewing symbolism as a high-level description of the properties of (a class of) neural networks. Combining methods of algebraic semantics and nonmonotonic logic, the possibility of integrating both modes of viewing cognition is dem...
متن کاملArtificial nonmonotonic neural networks
In this paper, we introduce Artificial Nonmonotonic Neural Networks (ANNNs), a kind of hybrid learning systems that are capable of nonmonotonic reasoning. Nonmonotonic reasoning plays an important role in the development of artificial intelligent systems that try to mimic common sense reasoning, as exhibited by humans. On the other hand, a hybrid learning system provides an explanation capabili...
متن کاملInference Based on Distributed Representations Using Trajectory Attractors
It is considered that a key to overcoming the limitations of classical artificial intelligence is to process distributed representations of information without symbolizing them. However, conventional neural networks require local or symbolic representations to perform complicated processing. Here we present a brain-like inference engine consisting of a nonmonotone neural network that makes infe...
متن کاملA Hybrid Optimization Algorithm for Learning Deep Models
Deep learning is one of the subsets of machine learning that is widely used in Artificial Intelligence (AI) field such as natural language processing and machine vision. The learning algorithms require optimization in multiple aspects. Generally, model-based inferences need to solve an optimized problem. In deep learning, the most important problem that can be solved by optimization is neural n...
