In [[artificial intelligence]], '''symbolic artificial intelligence''' (also known as '''classical artificial intelligence ''' or '''logic-based artificial intelligence''')<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Garnelo |first1=Marta |last2=Shanahan |first2=Murray |title=Reconciling deep learning with symbolic artificial intelligence: representing objects and relations |journal=Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences |date=October 2019 |volume=29 |pages=17–23 |doi=10.1016/j.cobeha.2018.12.010|doi-access=free |hdl=10044/1/67796 |hdl-access=free }}</ref><ref>{{Cite SEP|url-id=thomason|title=Logic-Based Artificial Intelligence|first=Richmond|last=Thomason|date=February 27, 2024}}</ref>
is the term for the collection of all methods in artificial intelligence research that are based on high-level [[physical symbol systems hypothesis|symbolic]] (human-readable) representations of problems, [[Formal logic|logic]] and [[search algorithm|search]].<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Garnelo|first1=Marta|last2=Shanahan|first2=Murray|date=2019-10-01|title=Reconciling deep learning with symbolic artificial intelligence: representing objects and relations|journal=Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences|language=en|volume=29|pages=17–23|doi=10.1016/j.cobeha.2018.12.010|s2cid=72336067 |doi-access=free|hdl=10044/1/67796|hdl-access=free}}</ref> Symbolic AI used tools such as [[logic programming]], [[production (computer science)|production rules]], [[semantic nets]] and [[frame (artificial intelligence)|frames]], and it developed applications such as [[knowledge-based systems]] (in particular, [[expert systems]]), [[symbolic mathematics]], [[automated theorem provers]], [[ontologies]], the [[semantic web]], and [[automated planning and scheduling]] systems. The Symbolic AI paradigm led to seminal ideas in [[Artificial intelligence#Search and optimization|search]], [[symbolic programming]] languages, [[Intelligent agent|agents]], [[multi-agent systems]], the [[semantic web]], and the strengths and limitations of formal knowledge and [[automated reasoning|reasoning systems]].
