Narration-of-Thought: Inference-Time Scaffolding for Defeasible Ethical Reasoning in Large Language Models

Patrick Cooper, Alvaro Velasquez

Standard chain-of-thought on moral dilemmas exhibits two failure modes: stakeholder collapse (the trace names at most one party with a stake in the outcome) and uncertainty suppres…

DeFAb: A Dataset for Grounded Scientific Discovery through Defeasible Abduction

Patrick Cooper, Alvaro Velasquez, Avyay Sadhu

A theory can accommodate a counterexample by adding an exception. The harder problem is deciding how far the exception should extend and which predictions should survive. We presen…

ANNEAL: Adapting LLM Agents via Governed Symbolic Patch Learning

Safayat Bin Hakim, Keyan Guo, Wenkai Tan +3

LLM-based agents can recover from individual execution errors, yet they repeatedly fail on the same fault when the underlying process knowledge--operator schemas, preconditions, an…

Neuro-Symbolic AI for Cybersecurity: State of the Art, Challenges, and Opportunities

Safayat Bin Hakim, Muhammad Adil, Alvaro Velasquez +2

Cybersecurity demands both rapid pattern recognition and deliberative reasoning, yet purely neural or purely symbolic approaches each address only one side of this duality. Neuro-S…

SymRAG: Efficient Neuro-Symbolic Retrieval Through Adaptive Query Routing

Safayat Bin Hakim, Muhammad Adil, Alvaro Velasquez +1

Current Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems use uniform processing, causing inefficiency as simple queries consume resources similar to complex multi-hop tasks. We present SymRA…

ANSR-DT: A Neuro-Symbolic Framework for Adaptive and Explainable Digital Twins

Safayat Bin Hakim, Muhammad Adil, Alvaro Velasquez +1

Digital twins are increasingly used to monitor and optimize industrial systems, yet many existing frameworks remain difficult to interpret, slow to adapt, and limited in their abil…

A Survey on Symbolic Knowledge Distillation of Large Language Models

Kamal Acharya, Alvaro Velasquez, Houbing Herbert Song

This survey paper delves into the emerging and critical area of symbolic knowledge distillation in Large Language Models (LLMs). As LLMs like Generative Pre-trained Transformer-3 (…

A Survey on Verification and Validation, Testing and Evaluations of Neurosymbolic Artificial Intelligence

Justus Renkhoff, Ke Feng, Marc Meier-Doernberg +2

Neurosymbolic artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging branch of AI that combines the strengths of symbolic AI and sub-symbolic AI. A major drawback of sub-symbolic AI is that i…
