KINS: Knowledge Injection via Network Structuring

by Matteo Magnini, Giovanni Ciatto, and Andrea Omicini

Abstract

We propose a novel method to inject symbolic knowledge in form of Datalog formulæ into neural networks (NN), called KINS (Knowledge Injection via Network Structuring). The idea behind our method is to extend NN internal structure with ad-hoc layers built out the injected symbolic knowledge. KINS does not constrain NN to any specific architecture, neither requires logic formulæ to be ground. Moreover, it is robust w.r.t. both lack of data and imperfect/incomplete knowledge. Experiments are reported to demonstrate the potential of KINS.
