Generate in the Chart, Not on the Boundary: Function-Symbol Grounding for Hard Constraints in LTN-GANs
摘要
arXiv:2608.21605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Logic Tensor Network-Enhanced Generative Adversarial Networks (LTN-GANs) inject background knowledge by grounding each logical axiom as a predicate and training the generator to raise its satisfaction, a fuzzy truth value in $[0,1]$. Previous LTN-GAN work grounded every constraint this way, at the predicate level, and improved constraint satisfaction. A predicate, however, only scores a sample, so it cannot embed hard structural constraints, rules such as orderings, positivity, and definitional identities that must hold in every generated sample. In this work, we investigate grounding each axiom as a function symbol inside the LTN framework. We compare against the state-of-the-art alternative, a constraint layer that clamps each violating sample onto the feasible boundary and so produces outputs that are always valid. Our investigation shows that a valid sample is not always a realistic one. An inequality is not merely satisfied or violated. It holds by a margin, and a faithful generator should also reproduce the margin's real distribution. We find that the resolution ratio $R$, the data's scale over the margin's spread, is a diagnostic, computable before training, of which constraints a chosen grounding can learn. When $R$ is large, the predicate receives no learning signal, the clamp pushes every sample onto the boundary, and the margin distribution is lost while every standard metric still looks fine.
