A novel approach is proposed to enhance the systematic generalization capabilities of neuro-symbolic neural networks. The Tensor Product Representation (TPR) framework integrates symbolic operations with neural networks, but existing TPR-based models struggle to decompose unseen data into structured representations. To address this issue, a Discrete Dictionary-based Decomposition (D3) layer is designed to leverage prior knowledge and capture symbolic features for decomposition. D3 is a straightforward drop-in layer that can be integrated into any TPR-based model without modifications, requiring fewer additional parameters while improving systematic generalization performance. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of D3 on various synthetic tasks, outperforming baseline models.

A new idea helps computers learn better from combining symbolic and neural network ideas. Neural networks are great at learning patterns in data, but they can struggle to understand structured information like rules or formulas. To fix this, a special layer is designed that uses learned “keys” and “values” to help the network understand symbols and break down new, unseen data into its underlying structure. This new layer works well with existing neural networks and helps them make better predictions and generalizations.
