Professors Guido Montúfar and Deanna Needell have received a National Science Foundation grant on Artificial Intelligence, Formal Methods, and Mathematical Reasoning. This program (AIMing) supports research at the “interface of innovative computational and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and new strategies/technologies in mathematical reasoning to automate knowledge discovery”. This grant is a collaboration between Cal Tech, […]
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are becoming part of everyday life, utilized for generating and editing text, recommending content, and recently in exploring mathematical and scientific data. However, AI tools that memorize, that is, store and reproduce outcomes directly seen in their training sets, pose several risks related to security, privacy, and reliability. Through a $1M […]
