SEMantics, Proofs and Effective Reasoning

Objective

The project unites mathematicians, computer scientists, and philosophers across logic, algebra, category theory, automated reasoning, and proof assistants to design modular reasoning systems with provable guarantees and validated prototypes. We draw on the vast literature of non-classical logics – including graded and probabilistic logics, resource-sensitive (substructural) systems, paraconsistent approaches that tolerate local contradictions, and modal/temporal/epistemic logics – to capture real-world reasoning that classical logic cannot. This is made possible through the collaboration of specialists from the two prominent pillars of logic – semantics and proofs. Not content with theoretical advances, we aim for effective reasoning: algorithms and tools (e.g. proof-assistant libraries, solvers, and model-checking prototypes) with applications in AI, legal reasoning, and natural language processing.

The MSCA Staff Exchange will provide the essential catalyst: sustained mobility across our vast collaboration network spanning six continents, maximizing existing collaborations and realizing new collaborations whose need has already been carefully identified. No single group or small consortium could accomplish the goals of this project. The timing is compelling: after nearly a century of advances, the theoretical and technological foundations are finally mature for genuine integration, while recent breakthroughs in AI and automated reasoning make the formal understanding of opaque, black-box systems urgent.

In short, this is a cutting-edge programme built on three pillars – Semantics, Proofs, and Effective Reasoning – delivering new theory, working prototypes, and a durable international collaboration.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

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.
