We learn more expressive mixture models that can subtract probability density by squaring them ๐ŸšจWe show squaring can reduce expressiveness To tackle this we build sum of squares circuits๐Ÿ†˜ ๐Ÿš€We explain why complex parameters help, and show an expressiveness hierarchy around๐Ÿ†˜

AI people going on about Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma like it was discovered yesterday. itโ€™s just another example of how most folks donโ€™t read or know anything more than 5 years old

We're glad to announce the NeSy 2025 Test of Time award for "Probabilistic Inference Modulo Theories"! ๐Ÿ†Rodrigo de Salvo Braz was here to accept the award. This is groundwork for recent NeSy approaches like DeepSeaProbLog and the probabilistic algebraic layer.

Insightful! We tackled the same problem in Knowledge Graph Completion. Dot-product scoring on low-dim embeddings severely limits what a model can predict. We call this a โ€œrank bottleneckโ€ to align with the existing LM literature. Our paper for context: arxiv.org/abs/2506.22271

In LoCo-LMs, we propose a neuro-symbolic loss function to fine-tune a LM to acquire logically consistent knowledge from a domain graph, i.e. wrt. to a set of logical consistency rules. @looselycorrect @tetraduzione arxiv.org/abs/2409.13724
