چکیده
This article discusses the current progress and solutions to the symbol grounding problem, indentify specifically which aspects of the problem have been already addressed, and which other issues and scientific challenges still require investigation. In particular, the paper suggests that of the various aspects of the symbol grounding problems, the one that still require significant research is that on the transition from indexical representations to symbol-symbol relationships. This analysis initiated a debate and solicited commentaries from experts in the field, to gather consensus on actual progress and achievements and to identify the challenges still open in the symbol grounding problem.

Can Symbol Grounding Improve Low-Level NLP? Word Segmentation as a Case Study
We propose a novel framework for improving a word segmenter using information acquired from symbol grounding. We generate a term dictionary in three steps: generating a pseudo-stochastically segmented corpus, building a symbol grounding model to enumerate word candidates, and filtering them according to the grounding scores. We applied our method to game records of Japanese chess with commentar...
متن کاملSymbol Grounding Revisited 1 the Origin of Symbol Grounding 1.1 Overview 1.2 the Symbol Grounding Problem
Symbol Grounding has originated in the domain of cognitive connectionism as an approach to a model of language acquisition.It has, however, transcended this restricted domain and its most prominent proponents now regard it as a technique which is of general importance to the connectionist-symbolic debate, especially for their integration into a common framework. This paper revisits the claims m...
متن کاملDynamic Symbol Grounding, State Construction and the Problem of Teleology
Symbol grounding has originated within the connectionist-symbolic debate so as to gap the bridge between the two approaches. This paper provides an overview about recent results concerning symbol grounding , which is critically reviewed here. A thorough analysis reveals that symbol grounding parallels transcen-dental logic and is best viewed as automated model construction. If this diagnosis is...
متن کاملThe Acquisition of New Categories through Grounded Symbols: An Extended Connectionist Model
Solutions to the symbol grounding problem, in psychologically plausible cognitive models, have been based on hybrid connectionist/symbolic architectures, on robotic approaches and on connectionist only systems. This paper presents new simulations on the use of neural network architectures for the grounding of symbols on categories. In particular, the connectivity patterns between layers of the ...
متن کاملA formal framework for the symbol grounding problem
A great deal of contention can be found within the published literature on grounding and the symbol grounding problem, much of it motivated by appeals to intuition and unfalsifiable claims. We seek to define a formal framework of representation grounding that is independent of any particular opinion, but that promotes classification and comparison. To this end, we identify a set of fundamental ...
