Query: Compositional Networks Enable Systematic Generalization for Grounded
  Language Understanding   Humans are remarkably flexible when understanding new sentences that include
combinations of concepts they have never encountered before. Recent work has
shown that while deep networks can mimic some human language abilities when
presented with novel sentences, systematic variation uncovers the limitations
in the language-understanding abilities of networks. We demonstrate that these
limitations can be overcome by addressing the generalization challenges in the
gSCAN dataset, which explicitly measures how well an agent is able to interpret
novel linguistic commands grounded in vision, e.g., novel pairings of
adjectives and nouns. The key principle we employ is compositionality: that the
compositional structure of networks should reflect the compositional structure
of the problem domain they address, while allowing other parameters to be
learned end-to-end. We build a general-purpose mechanism that enables agents to
generalize their language understanding to compositional domains. Crucially,
our network has the same state-of-the-art performance as prior work while
generalizing its knowledge when prior work does not. Our network also provides
a level of interpretability that enables users to inspect what each part of
networks learns. Robust grounded language understanding without dramatic
failures and without corner cases is critical to building safe and fair robots;
we demonstrate the significant role that compositionality can play in achieving
that goal.
