提出多任务符号回归模型,可同时预测多个相关变量并保持结果可解释。

Multi-task GINN-LP for Multi-target Symbolic Regression

  • 用共享主干+任务专用输出层的多任务架构,捕捉多目标间依赖关系。
  • 在能源效率和可持续农业任务中表现优于单目标方法,且保持高可解释性。
  • 适合需要多输出预测且重视模型解释性的实际场景,如工业优化与环境建模。

在可解释人工智能领域,符号回归(SR)通过发现可解释的数学表达式来拟合数据,展现出巨大潜力。然而,现有方法主要在科学数据集上评估,其关系结构已知,限制了泛化能力;且多数仅支持单输出回归,难以应对现实世界中多目标输出且变量相互依赖的问题。为此,本文提出多任务符号回归神经网络 MTRGINN-LP,融合图神经网络与多任务深度学习,采用包含多个幂次项近似模块的共享主干结构,配合任务特定输出层,既建模多目标间依赖,又保持模型可解释性。在能源效率预测与可持续农业等真实多目标任务上验证,该模型在预测性能上具有竞争力,同时具备高可解释性,有效将符号回归扩展至更广泛的多输出实际应用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In the area of explainable artificial intelligence, Symbolic Regression (SR) has emerged as a promising approach by discovering interpretable mathematical expressions that fit data. However, SR faces two main challenges: most methods are evaluated on scientific datasets with well-understood relationships, limiting generalization, and SR primarily targets single-output regression, whereas many real-world problems involve multi-target outputs with interdependent variables. To address these issues, we propose multi-task regression GINN-LP (MTRGINN-LP), an interpretable neural network for multi-target symbolic regression. By integrating GINN-LP with a multi-task deep learning, the model combines a shared backbone including multiple power-term approximator blocks with task-specific output layers, capturing inter-target dependencies while preserving interpretability. We validate multi-task GINN-LP on practical multi-target applications, including energy efficiency prediction and sustainable agriculture. Experimental results demonstrate competitive predictive performance alongside high interpretability, effectively extending symbolic regression to broader real-world multi-output tasks.
