Neuroexplicit Models of Language, Vision, Action

1/n🤖🧠 New paper alert!📢 In "Assessing Episodic Memory in LLMs with Sequence Order Recall Tasks" (arxiv.org/abs/2410.08133) we introduce SORT as the first method to evaluate episodic memory in large language models. Read on to find out what we discovered!🧵

Final opportunity: Multiple PhD students to start in Fall 2025. Combine neural and symbolic/interpretable models of language, vision, and action, and work with world-class advisors at @Saar_Uni, MPI Informatics, @mpi_sws, @CISPA ,@DFKI. Details: neuroexplicit.org/jobs/

It was fantastic to have @tetraduzione as a guest at our fall retreat this year. He taught us a beautiful and effective neurosymbolic approach to factuality in LLMs and brought such a positive spirit. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Ellie Pavlick @Brown_NLP is visiting us for three months as a @dfg_public Mercator Fellow. We are thrilled to have her with us and look forward to many fruitful research collaborations.

Now hiring: Three PhD students and one postdoc, as part of a research team of ~30, combining neural and symbolic/interpretable models of language, vision, action, and ML. Work with advisors at @Saar_Uni, MPI Informatics, @mpi_sws_, @CISPA, @DFKI. Details: neuroexplicit.org/jobs/

Now hiring: Six PhD students and one postdoc, for research on combining neural and symbolic/interpretable models of language, vision, and action and ML. Work with world-class advisors at @Saar_Uni, MPI Informatics, @mpi_sws_, @CISPA, @DFKI. Details: neuroexplicit.org/jobs/

We welcome our first eight associated members to the RTG! They are PhD students and postdocs at @SIC_Saar and @CISPA working on neuroexplicit models of language, vision, and action, and will contribute their own research and ideas to the RTG-funded student's work.

Welcome, Hamza Mughal, as a PhD student starting in October! Hamza holds a BSc from NUST Pakistan and is about to finish his MSc from @SIC_Saar. He plans to work on neuroexplicit models for multimodal gesture synthesis. We look forward to having you! m-hamza-mughal.github.io

We welcome Cameron Braunstein, who will join us as a PhD student in October. With an MSc from @SIC_Saar on quantum computing for optical flow and a BSc from @BrandeisU, Cameron will work on neurosymbolic models of vision, language, and neuroscience. cvmp.cs.uni-saarland.de/?page_id=145#c…

Welcome, @SwetaMahajan1! We are pleased to announce that Sweta Mahajan will join us as a PhD students from IIT Delhi to work on neurosymbolic models at the intersection of vision and language. Looking forward to working with you! swet96.github.io

Now hiring: Six PhD students and one postdoc for research on combining neural and symbolic/interpretable models of language, vision, and action. Work with world-class advisors at @Saar_Uni, MPI Informatics, @mpi_sws, @CISPA, @DFKI. Details: neuroexplicit.org/jobs

We are funded! Job ads for the first six PhD students (will grow to 24), one postdoc, a coordinator, and a secretary will follow. Looking forward to five years of research on combining neural and human-interpretable (e.g. symbolic) models.
