AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies struggle to effectively balance the demands of soft and hard constraints on machine learning models, especially in fields like autonomous driving, where they cannot guarantee that the learning model simultaneously satisfies both data fitting and logical rule constraints.
We adopt an abstract gradient descent-based approach, which uses adversarial learning to alternately optimize soft and hard constraints. By leveraging the properties of abstract gradients, we directly use a logistic semantic discrete function as the optimization objective. By combining backward and up-down abstraction strategies, we ensure that soft constraints are optimized within a feasible range after hard constraints are satisfied.
It achieves efficient optimization of soft constraints while satisfying hard constraints, avoids limited optimization space, and ensures that the learning model effectively fits the data under logical constraints.
