A Survey on Compositional Generalization in Applications
It synthesizes incremental progress for researchers and practitioners in AI by organizing existing work on compositional generalization in applied contexts.
This paper provides a comprehensive survey of recent developments in compositional generalization across various real-life applications, introducing a taxonomy of domains and summarizing state-of-the-art approaches while identifying trends and future perspectives.
The field of compositional generalization is currently experiencing a renaissance in AI, as novel problem settings and algorithms motivated by various practical applications are being introduced, building on top of the classical compositional generalization problem. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of top recent developments in multiple real-life applications of the compositional generalization. Specifically, we introduce a taxonomy of common applications and summarize the state-of-the-art for each of those domains. Furthermore, we identify important current trends and provide new perspectives pertaining to the future of this burgeoning field.
