Complementing Logical Reasoning with Sub-symbolic Commonsense

Neuro-symbolic integration is a current field of investigation in which symbolic approaches are combined with deep learning ones. In this work we start from simple non-relational knowledge that can be extracted from text by considering the co-occurrence of entities inside textual corpora; we show that we can easily integrate this knowledge with Logic Tensor Networks (LTNs), a neuro-symbolic model. Using LTNs it is possible to integrate axioms and facts with commonsense knowledge represented in a sub-symbolic form in one single model performing well in reasoning tasks. In spite of some current limitations, we show that results are promising.
