Reasoning and question answering as a basic cognitive function for humans, is nevertheless a great challenge for current artificial intelligence. Although the Differentiable Neural Computer (DNC) model could solve such problems to a certain extent, the development is still limited by its high algorithm complexity, slow convergence speed, and poor test robustness. Inspired by the learning and memory mechanism of the brain, this paper proposed a Memory Transformation based Differentiable Neural Computer (MT-DNC) model. MT-DNC incorporates working memory and long-term memory into DNC, and realizes the autonomous transformation of acquired experience between working memory and long-term memory, thereby helping to effectively extract acquired knowledge to improve reasoning ability. Experimental results on bAbI question answering task demonstrated that our proposed method achieves superior performance and faster convergence speed compared to other existing DNN and DNC models. Ablation studies also indicated that the memory transformation from working memory to long-term memory plays essential role in improving the robustness and stability of reasoning. This work explores how brain-inspired memory transformation can be integrated and applied to complex intelligent dialogue and reasoning systems.

多跳问答(QA)是一个具有挑战性的任务,因为它需要在每一步的答案与实体关系的精确推理。关系可以根据知识图谱中的标签来表示(例如,\textit{spouse})或文本语料库中的文本(例如,\textit{they have been married for 26 years})。现有的模型通常通过预测序列关系路径或聚集隐藏图特征来推断答案。前者很难优化,后者缺乏可解释性。在本文中,我们提出了TransferNet,一个有效的和透明的多跳QA模型,它支持在一个统一的框架中的标签和文本关系。TransferNet以多个步骤跨越实体。在每一步中,它关注问题的不同部分,计算关系的激活分数,然后以可微的方式沿着激活的关系传递先前的实体分数。我们在三个数据集上进行了广泛的实验,并证明了TransferNet在很大程度上超越了最先进的模型。特别是在MetaQA上,它在2跳和3跳问题中达到了100%的准确率。通过定性分析,我们表明,TransferNet具有透明和可解释的中间结果。
