Learning and Reasoning for Robot Sequential Decision Making under Uncertainty
Robots frequently face complex tasks that require more than one action, where
sequential decision-making (SDM) capabilities become necessary. The key
contribution of this work is a robot SDM framework, called LCORPP, that
supports the simultaneous capabilities of supervised learning for passive state
estimation, automated reasoning with declarative human knowledge, and planning
under uncertainty toward achieving long-term goals. In particular, we use a
hybrid reasoning paradigm to refine the state estimator, and provide
informative priors for the probabilistic planner. In experiments, a mobile
robot is tasked with estimating human intentions using their motion
trajectories, declarative contextual knowledge, and human-robot interaction
(dialog-based and motion-based). Results suggest that, in efficiency and
accuracy, our framework performs better than its no-learning and no-reasoning
counterparts in office environment.Comment: In proceedings of 34th AAAI conference on Artificial Intelligence,

Neurons and symbols: a manifesto
We discuss the purpose of neural-symbolic integration including its principles, mechanisms and applications. We outline a cognitive computational model for neural-symbolic integration, position the model in the broader context of multi-agent systems, machine learning and automated reasoning, and list some of the challenges for the area of
neural-symbolic computation to achieve the promise of effective integration of robust learning and expressive reasoning under uncertainty
