AI 导读
符号学习也不意味着“手工编写表示”（你想的是 1970-1990 年代的“符号 AI”）。如今当你根据 (x, y) 对的示例手工写出一个函数 x -> y 时，我们只是把这叫做“编程”。 符号学习明确地是机器学习的一种形式：表示是从数据中自动推导出来的，就像深度学习一样。
正文
Symbolic learning also does not mean "writing the representations by hand" (you are thinking of "symbolic AI" from the 1970s-1990s). Nowadays when you write by hand a function x -> y given examples of (x, y) pairs, we just call that "programming."
Symbolic learning is emphatically a form of machine learning: the representations are automatically derived from data, just like with deep learning.
