arXiv:2605.04916v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) learns interpretable logical rules from data. Existing methods are transductive: their learned parameters are bound to specific predicates and require retraining for each new task. We introduce Neural Rule Inducer (NRI), a pretrained model for zero-shot rule induction. Rather than encoding literal identities, NRI represents literals using domain-agnostic statistical properties such as class-conditional rates, entropy, and co-occurrence, which generalize across variable identities and counts without retraining. The model consists of a statistical encoder and a parallel slot-based decoder. Parallel decoding preserves the permutation invariance of logical disjunction; an autoregressive decoder would instead impose an arbitrary clause order. Product T-norm relaxation makes rule execution differentiable, allowing end-to-end training on prediction accuracy alone. We evaluate NRI on rule recovery, robustness to label noise and spurious correlations, and zero-shot transfer to real-world benchmarks, and we believe this work opens up the possibility of foundation models for symbolic reasoning.
