Reasoning is the action of drawing conclusions efficiently by composing learned concepts. In this presentation I’ll give a few examples illustrating why it is hard to learn to reason with current machine learning approaches. I will describe a general framework (generalization of the unseen) that characterizes most reasoning problems and out-of-distribution generalization in general, and give insights about intrinsic biases of current models. I will then present the specific problem of length ...
