Natural Language Reasoning, A Survey
Paper · 2023 · Fei Yu, Hongbo Zhang, Prayag Tiwari et al.
Summary
The survey addresses a terminology problem in NLP: the word "reasoning" is applied inconsistently. Some tasks labelled as reasoning, such as parts of commonsense reasoning, involve little actual inference. Others, like natural language inference or multi-hop QA, often require it but are not named that way. The authors draw on philosophy and logic to build an NLP-oriented definition of natural language reasoning. They also discuss which tasks genuinely demand it and propose a taxonomy of reasoning types. They then review more than two hundred works built on transformer-based PLMs. Methods are grouped into end-to-end, forward (e.g. chain-of-thought prompting) and backward reasoning. Benchmarks are surveyed for classical logical reasoning, NLI, multi-hop QA and commonsense reasoning. The scope is limited to unstructured, single-modality text and excludes neuro-symbolic methods, tables, knowledge triples and mathematical reasoning. The authors argue that backward reasoning deserves more attention because its smaller search space makes it more efficient. They highlight defeasible (non-deductive) reasoning as a key open direction. The result is a shared vocabulary and a structured map of the field.
Key points
- The literature base comprises 200+ papers. They were located by keyword searches ("reasoning", "inference", "multi-hop", etc.) of the 2019–2022 proceedings of NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP and NAACL. A companion paper list is maintained at github.com/FreedomIntelligence/ReasoningNLP.
- The proposed definition builds on two philosophical notions:
- theoretical (assertion-based) reasoning, which derives conclusions from premises;
- practical (action-based) reasoning, which infers actions from goals and knowledge.
- Backward reasoning is said to help both medium-size PLMs and LLMs. In contrast, CoT prompting mainly benefits large models.
- In the authors' case studies, ChatGPT still fails to be perfect even on single-step deduction. Yet it sometimes produced fuller answers than the gold annotations in EntailmentBank and WikiWhy.
- The listed future directions are:
- generalisation to longer reasoning chains;
- defeasible reasoning;
- reasoning in non-English languages, which is harder because of data sparsity;
- multimodality;
- faithfulness and interpretability;
- planning;
- self-correction;
- LLM self-improvement.
