OntoAct: Hypothesis-Based Neuro-Symbolic Agents through Ontological Abstraction
Learning from experience requires recovering reusable knowledge and determining when it applies to a new situation. We introduce OntoAct, a hypothesis-based neuro-symbolic framework built on ontological abstraction. OntoAct turns individual experiences into axioms over entity types, relations, and conditions, making their underlying patterns reusable across situations. A large language model (LLM) uses this world knowledge to propose hypotheses and actions, while a symbolic verifier assesses their supporting conditions against current observations. Verification identifies missing evidence, and new observations and intervention outcomes update hypothesis assessments and guide subsequent ac...
