ABSTRACT
In the changing realm of Natural Language Processing (NLP) the rise of deep learning has brought about a notable advancement enabling machines to understand and produce human language with impressive accuracy. However, despite these strides current NLP systems encounter hurdles in tasks that demand intricate reasoning, nuanced comprehension, and the ability to draw conclusions from limited or unclear data. To tackle these challenges the emerging field of Neurosymbolic AI suggests a blend of approaches by combining the learning capabilities of deep neural networks with the precise rule-based reasoning of symbolic AI. This fusion aims to develop systems that do not excel in language processing tasks but also possess a deeper understanding resembling human cognition intuitively. By harnessing the strengths of both paradigms— learnings efficiency in handling extensive datasets and symbolic AIs skill in logical deduction—Neurosymbolic AI offers potential solutions to current barriers in NLP. It opens up possibilities for AI systems to undertake complex tasks like grasping metaphors detecting sarcasm and interpreting context sensitive language with finesse. This piece explores the principles of Neurosymbolic AI evaluates its influence, on NLP and discusses how it could reshape AIs analytical and decision-making frameworks in intricate real-world scenarios.
