Computational abstraction for biologically plausible models of reasoning

  Research Group: Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics
Project Description. AI research today adheres to a data-first paradigm. From a mathematical perspective, however, data can be seen as a product of models, i.e., mathematical assumptions such as structures, variables, and parameters, underlying AI systems.  . Read more
