Succinct Representations for Concepts
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Foundation models like chatGPT have demonstrated remarkable performance on various tasks. However, for many questions, they may produce false answers that look accurate. How do we train the model to precisely understand the concepts? In this paper, we introduce succinct representations of concepts based on category theory. Such representation yields concept-wise invariance properties under various tasks, resulting a new learning algorithm that can provably and accurately learn complex concepts or fix misconceptions. Moreover, by recursively expanding the succinct representations, one can generate a hierarchical decomposition, and manually verify the concept by individually examining each part inside the decomposition.
