Just had someone reach back 4 years later to say my advice was helpful to them and they just had their first @cvprconference.bsky.social paper accepted. So that is cool 😁

Manas Gaur, Edward Raff, and Ali Mohammadi helped present a half-day tutorial at 2025 AAAI on Neurosymbolic AI and how it can be applied to LLMs to help solve key challenges in NLP tasks like explainability, grounding & instructability. See their slides & material here.

I'm currently working through/implementing the Hager Zhang line search b/c I need it for some research, and it's a monster! Would anyone care if I made a tech report on "so you want to implement LBFGs/CG just give me the details"? B/c its really not well documented anywhere.
