Ben, I saw your call. The neurosymbolic project should be an obvious fit for me on the surface:
https://deepfunding.ai/rfp/neuro-symbolic-dnn-architectures/ If you remember my assertion is that language models naturally will result in structures over which we can perform symbolic reasoning. So "neurosymbolic" behaviour will appear naturally. It is just the symbolic equivalent structures will be chaotic attractors, so must be found dynamically (e.g. by synchrony of oscillations, not backprop, otherwise they will result in the LARGEness of the models blowing out... if anyone has noticed that..., but remaining opaque.) Which assertion also seems to fit with the mention in the call for "complex system dynamics": "the research aims to advance AI’s ability to reason dynamically over complex systems across multiple spatio-temporal scales." So it could be a fit. But these calls generally have implicit expectations which narrow their scope in practice. In practice I don't know if what you're looking for will be limited to specifically PyNeuraLogic and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) (& AIRIS?) platforms. Or something else that more closely fits some existing idea of what neurosymbolic will mean. I did pitch once to a Singularity.Net project. Here: https://proposals.deepfunding.ai/graduated/rejected/7c0cbc16-8dc8-4b30-8d9b-44f963bbb68d But it was rejected on the basis of not fitting the (implicit?) scope of the call (to "advance" Sing.Net by development not research...) So I hesitate to put anything in without clarity that you are really casting a wide net this time, and would be open to a new approach.
