Neuro-symbolic learning over OWL 2 DL via consequence-based compilation to differentiable circuits

Baobab compiles an OWL 2 DL (ΣROIQ) ontology with a finite ABox into a Sentential Decision Diagram (SDD), saturating a propositional core and instantiating remaining DL features over the active domain. The resulting evidence‑conditioned weighted model count trains a perception network to recognize real images under partial ABox supervision, enabling a CNN to recover latent ontology concepts that an independent perception would miss. When supervision allows multiple ontology‑consistent completions, Baobab’s mixture indexed by query justifications represents the calibrated posterior, achieving Bayes‑optimal performance on a real‑image MNIST task where single‑WMC and learned mixtures fail, thereby characterizing and mitigating reasoning shortcuts in a non‑Horn description logic.

Quantifying Aleatoric Uncertainty of In-Context Learning for Robust Measure of LLM Prediction Confidence

arXiv:2606. 19353v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In-Context Learning (ICL) allows LLMs to adapt to new tasks from a few demonstrations, but its reliability remains a concern: predictions are highly sensitive to both prompt design and the model's ability to understand the context, obscuring whether failures arise from data properties or model limitations.

Structure-Internalized Rule Language Model for Faithful Knowledge Graph Reasoning

The paper introduces the Structure-Internalized Rule Language Model (SIRLM) to improve Knowledge Graph Reasoning (KGR) by addressing the mismatch between KG structural context and Large Language Model (LLM) parametric knowledge. SIRLM centers on a Structure-Internalized Rule Generator (SIRG) that uses in-context learning, a structural relation memory, a KG tokenizer, and a neuro-symbolic reasoner to generate structural rules and provide faithful rule-execution feedback. Experiments on 36 datasets against 17 state‑of‑the‑art KGR methods show that SIRLM achieves significant performance gains.
