PyAerial documentation is now much more comprehensive and has a lot of examples: pyaerial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/in...

If you are interested in interpretable machine learning or knowledge discovery, check out PyAerial!

Yesterday, I gave a seminar on Scalable Knowledge Discovery with Neurosymbolic Rule Learning at the University of Amsterdam’s Data Science Center.

Here’s a blog post with code samples and experiments on knowledge discovery from tabular data:

Why is defining consciousness not trivial?

I am attending the ECAI2025 workshop ACAI - Awakening Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence. And hearing different sound and consistent, at first, definitions or assumptions around consciousness made me think of this question.

I'm excited to present our new method for enhancing knowledge discovery from tabular data using tabular foundation models at the #ECAI2025 conference workshops (ANSyA) this Sunday, October 26th.

See our paper, Discovering Association Rules in High-Dimensional Small Tabular Data, below 👇.

Tabular foundation models can boost knowledge discovery from high-dimensional tabular data with few instances (e.g., gene expression or rare disease data, 1K+ columns and <100 rows)!

I will be at the NeSy2025 conference this week, presenting Aerial scalable neurosymbolic tabular rule learner!

Feel free to reach out if you are interested in knowledge discovery, interpretable inference!

PyAerial looks much nicer now, with new CI/CD implemented, 50+ test cases and visualizations of association rules!

Learning rules over large tables for knowledge discovery and interpretable inference is much easier with PyAerial.

I wrote a new blog post that introduce our new neurosymbolic tabular rule learner (accepted at NeSy 2025) in an intuitive level.

Feel free to reach out if you wanna discuss about it!

Rule learning is valuable but overlooked in modern AI; we argue it merits more focus for two reasons: knowledge discovery and interpretable inference.

Our NeSy 2025 paper presents a state-of-the-art neurosymbolic tabular rule learner.

New Python package for scalable association rule mining!

We propose a novel neurosymbolic method for scalable rule mining from tabular data that can be used for both knowledge discovery and fully interpretable inference.

On Wednesday (16th of April) at the NWO ICT.Open, I will present our work on Interpretable Decision-Making in (Digital Twins of) Smart Environments for high-stakes decision-making.

If you are interested, please visit me on the exhibition floor!

See the details below 👇

There are only so many words and actions we can say or do, and they are no match for the complexity of what's going on in our brain. Whatever anyone says or does, it is not exactly what they meant to say or do. It's just a misalignment of computation and memory to output.

There is something inhuman in quantifying and optimizing things that I can not pinpoint. It is not only that we miss-quantity the unquantifiable or misrepresent the intangible to pursue as goals, but deeper. It is depressing to think every human institution rests on quantification and optimization.

Together with @kareemyousrii.bsky.social, we announce the Neurosymbolic Generative Models special track at the NeSy 2025 Conference 🎉
