Bridging the Gap: Representation Spaces in Neuro-Symbolic AI

However, although the cooperation between these two seems natural, the difference in their representation is obviously not negligible. Prof. Henry Kautz proposed a taxonomy of Neuro-Symbolic Systems in the AAAI 2020. In addition, many researchers have conducted relevant reviews of the recent neuro-symbolic AI from different perspectives. As Fig.1 shows, Acharya et al. [1] proposed a new classification method, which classified and discussed the application of existing neuro-symbolic AI by the role of neural and symbolic parts: learning for reasoning, reasoning for Learning, and learning-reasoning. Garcez et al. [73] proposed a taxonomy that includes sequential, nested, cooperative, and compiled neuro-symbolic AI based on the six types introduced by Henry Kautz. In addition, some reviews focus on cross-field integration and applications. For example, Berlot-Attwell [27] reviewed neuro-symbolic VQA (visual question answering) from the perspectives of AGI (artificial general intelligence) desiderata. Marra [128] conducted a comprehensive review on integrating neuro-symbolic and statistical relational artificial intelligence based on seven dimensions.
