  We consider modified teleparallel gravity, (f(T) gravity), as a framework to
explain the present accelerated expansion of the universe. The matter component
is assumed to be cold dark matter. To find the explicit form of the function
$f$, we utilize generalized Noether theorem and use generalized vector fields
as variational symmetries of the corresponding Lagrangian. We study the
cosmological consequences of the obtained results.
