Perception Processing for General Intelligence: Bridging the Symbolic/Subsymbolic Gap
نویسنده
چکیده
Bridging the gap between symbolic and subsymbolic representations is a – perhaps the – key obstacle along the path from the present state of AI achievement to human-level artificial general intelligence. One approach to bridging this gap is hybridization – for instance, incorporation of a subsymbolic system and a symbolic system into a integrative cognitive architecture. Here we present a detailed design for an implementation of this approach, via integrating a version of the DeSTIN deep learning system into OpenCog, an integrative cognitive architecture including rich symbolic capabilities. This is a ”tight” integration, in which the symbolic and subsymbolic aspects exert detailed real-time influence on each others’ operations. An earlier technical report has described in detail the revisions to DeSTIN needed to support this integration, which are mainly along the lines of making it more ”representationally transparent,” so that its internal states are easier for OpenCog to understand.

متن کاملTowards Grounding Conceptual Spaces in Neural Representations
The highly influential framework of conceptual spaces provides a geometric way of representing knowledge. It aims at bridging the gap between symbolic and subsymbolic processing. Instances are represented by points in a high-dimensional space and concepts are represented by convex regions in this space. In this paper, we present our approach towards grounding the dimensions of a conceptual spac...
متن کاملIntegrating Deep Learning Based Perception with Probabilistic Logic via Frequent Pattern Mining
The bridging of the gap between 1) subsymbolic pattern recognition and learning algorithms and 2) symbolic reasoning algorithms, has been a major issue for AI since the early days of the field. One class of approaches involves integrating subsymbolic and symbolic systems, but this raises the question of how to effectively translate between the very different languages involved. In the approach ...
متن کاملPerspectives of Neuro–Symbolic Integration
There is an obvious tension between symbolic and subsymbolic theories, because both show complementary strengths and weaknesses in corresponding applications and underlying methodologies. The resulting gap in the foundations and the applicability of these approaches is theoretically unsatisfactory and practically undesirable. We sketch a theory that bridges this gap between symbolic and subsymb...
