梳理神经符号AI可解释性分类体系,揭示三大核心挑战。

Neuro-Symbolic AI: Explainability, Challenges, and Future Trends

  • 按表示与决策的显隐性分五类,系统归类191篇研究
  • 发现统一表示、透明性与协同机制仍是主要瓶颈
  • 适合关注AI可解释性与伦理影响的研究者阅读

可解释性是限制神经网络在诸多关键领域应用的核心因素。尽管神经符号AI希望通过符号学习的透明性提升整体可解释性,但实际效果未达预期。本文基于2013年以来191项研究,从模型设计与行为两方面对可解释性进行分类,旨在启发相关学者理解神经符号AI的可解释性。具体分为五类:隐式中间表示与隐式预测、部分显式中间表示与部分显式预测、显式中间表示或显式预测、显式中间表示与显式预测、统一表示与显式预测。分析显示,统一表示、可解释性与透明性、神经网络与符号学习间的充分协作是当前三大挑战。文章提出未来研究应聚焦统一表示、增强模型可解释性、伦理考量及社会影响三个方面。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Explainability is an essential reason limiting the application of neural networks in many vital fields. Although neuro-symbolic AI hopes to enhance the overall explainability by leveraging the transparency of symbolic learning, the results are less evident than imagined. This article proposes a classification for explainability by considering both model design and behavior of 191 studies from 2013, focusing on neuro-symbolic AI, hoping to inspire scholars who want to understand the explainability of neuro-symbolic AI. Precisely, we classify them into five categories by considering whether the form of bridging the representation differences is readable as their design factor, if there are representation differences between neural networks and symbolic logic learning, and whether a model decision or prediction process is understandable as their behavior factor: implicit intermediate representations and implicit prediction, partially explicit intermediate representations and partially explicit prediction, explicit intermediate representations or explicit prediction, explicit intermediate representation and explicit prediction, unified representation and explicit prediction. We also analyzed the research trends and three significant challenges: unified representations, explainability and transparency, and sufficient cooperation from neural networks and symbolic learning. Finally, we put forward suggestions for future research in three aspects: unified representations, enhancing model explainability, ethical considerations, and social impact.
