Evaluating Logical Generalization in Graph Neural Networks

Sinha, Koustuv, Sodhani, Shagun, Pineau, Joelle et al.

Understand

Recent research has highlighted the role of relational inductive biases in building learning agents that can generalize and reason in a compositional manner.

  • However, while relational learning algorithms such as graph neural networks (GNNs) show promise, we do not understand how effectively these approaches can adapt to new tasks.
  • In this work, we study the task of logical generalization using GNNs by designing a benchmark suite grounded in first-order logic.
  • Our benchmark suite, GraphLog, requires that learning algorithms perform rule induction in different synthetic logics, represented as knowledge graphs.
