Project description
Exploring the ties between computational learning theory and algebra
Computational learning theory (CLT) is a branch of computer science that studies the mathematical and algorithmic underpinnings of machine learning. As artificial intelligence is rapidly gaining ground and transforming our world, CLT is providing a way of classifying the computational feasibility of different learning problems. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the LLAMA project will build on recently identified new connections between learning theory and universal algebra, with the aim of improving understanding of learnability for fragments of first-order logic. Project results will have significant implications for data management and knowledge representation.
Objective
Computational learning theory is a branch of computer science that studies the mathematical and algorithmic underpinnings of machine learning. It provides the concepts and methods to classify the computational feasibility of different learning problems. This project lies at the intersection of computational learning theory and logic, and it builds on recently identified new connections between learning theory and universal algebra. Its high-level goals are (i) to improve our understanding of learnability for fragments of first-order logic, motivated by applications in data management and knowledge representation, and (ii) to further develop and exploit the recently identified connections with universal algebra (as well as combinatorial graph theory, finite model theory, and fixed point logics), to developing a rich technical framework for proving new results. More concretely, we will study aspects of computational learning theory for fragments of first order logic under constraints (that is, in the presence of a background theory), with applications in data management and knowledge representation.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
