Abstract:
Neurosymbolic Computation aims to unify the two main
branches in AI, namely, neural networks and logic. Answer Set Program-
ming (ASP) is a good candidate for the logic part as it offers a declara-
tive and expressive language. We consider a Visual Question Answering
(VQA) problem, where we want to answer a question using visual input,
for which neural and neurosymbolic approaches achieved good results.
Our interest is here with elaboration of the questions, when new pred-
icates, of increasing sophistication, become available. To this end, we
experimentally compare a neural-based approach against a neurosym-
bolic one over the CLEVR dataset. The results show that the latter
approach is more robust to the new questions, achieving high accuracy,
and also provides the benefit of producing explainable answers. On the
downside, the neurosymbolic approach requires that the semantics of the
questions respective predicates have to be manually coded. Preliminary
work is being done to relieve this by using Inductive Logic Programming
to learn the semantics of the predicates.
