We study one of the most popular problems in **neurosymbolic learning** (NSL), that of learning neural classifiers given only the result of applying a symbolic component $\sigma$ to the gold labels of the elements of a vector $\mathbf x$. The gold labels of the elements in $\mathbf x$ are unknown to…
We consider a weakly supervised learning scenario where the supervision signal is generated by a transition function $\sigma$ of labels associated with multiple input instances. We formulate this problem as *multi-instance Partial Label Learning (multi-instance PLL)*, which is an extension to the st…
Prior knowledge and symbolic rules in machine learning are often expressed in the form of label constraints, especially in structured prediction problems. In this work, we compare two common strategies for encoding label constraints in a machine learning pipeline, *regularization with constraints* a…
Learning from indirect supervision signals is important in real-world AI applications when, often, gold labels are missing or too costly. In this paper, we develop a unified theoretical framework for multi-class classification when the supervision is provided by a variable that contains nonzero mutu…
We show that an end-to-end deep learning approach can be used to recognize either English or Mandarin Chinese speech–two vastly different languages. Because it replaces entire pipelines of hand-engineered components with neural networks, end-to-end learning allows us to handle a diverse variety of s…
