- 요약Current artificial intelligence systems excel at specific visual tasks but lack the ability to perform deliberate, step-by-step visual reasoning. They cannot, for example, mentally construct and manipulate an image to solve a novel problem in the way a person might imagine rearranging furniture or building with Legos. This dissertation addresses this gap by developing and evaluating a cognitive architecture for integrated, deliberate visual-symbolic reasoning.I introduce SVS 2, an extension of the Soar cognitive architecture that integrates new visual memories and processes with Soar's established symbolic reasoning capabilities. SVS 2 features a short-term Visual Working Memory (VWM) that allows an agent to construct and execute visual operation graphs, and a Visual Long-term Memory (VLTM) that stores persistent, cross-representational knowledge. This structure enables the agent to deliberately select and apply visual operations - including translation between representations, image manipulation, and learning - using its symbolic knowledge to guide the visual reasoning process and vice versa. The system supports both high-fidelity depictive (image-like) representations and more abstract descriptive representations, including those derived from neural networks.The capabilities of SVS 2 are demonstrated in two novel task domains. The Visual Character Domain establishes foundational integration by requiring an agent to perform tasks like visualizing the word "wow," rotating it 180 degrees, and recognizing the result as "mom." The more complex Image Factory domain tests multi-step visual problem-solving, tasking the agent with designing a sequence of visual transformations to construct a target product from a set of input parts. The performance of agents in these domains proves the plausibility of this "symbol-first" approach, demonstrating a functional architecture for holistic, deliberative visual-symbolic reasoning.
