Large language Models (LLMs) have achieved significant breakthroughs across diverse domains; however, they can still produce unreliable or misleading outputs. For responsible LLM application, Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) techniques are…

Reasoning quality in large language models depends not only on producing correct answers but also on generating valid intermediate steps. We study this through multiple-choice question answering (MCQA), which provides a controlled setting…

Multimodal foundation models offer a promising framework for robotic perception and planning by processing sensory inputs to generate actionable plans. However, addressing uncertainty in both perception (sensory interpretation) and…

One of the most important topics in quantum scientific computing is solving differential equations. In this paper, generalized quantum functional expansion (QFE) framework is proposed. In the QFE framework, a functional expansion of…

The QBF Gallery 2023, the last QBF evaluation event, continues the tradition to survey and document the state of the art in solving quantified Boolean formulas (QBFs). It provides a detailed overview by collecting newly developed solvers…

Term-resolution provides an elegant mechanism to prove that a quantified Boolean formula (QBF) is true. It is a dual to Q-resolution (also referred to as clause-resolution) and is practically highly important as it enables certifying…

We present Decalf, a directed, effectful cost-aware logical framework for studying quantitative aspects of functional programs with effects. Like Calf, the language is based on an internal phase distinction between the behavior of a program…

In various scenarios, a single phase of modelling and solving is either not sufficient or not feasible to solve the problem at hand. A standard approach to solving AI planning problems, for example, is to incrementally extend the planning…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed to autonomously solve real-world tasks. A key ingredient for this is the LLM Function-Calling paradigm, a widely used approach for equipping LLMs with tool-use capabilities. However, an…

Uncertainty in Logic Programming has been investigated since about 25 years, publishing papers dealing with various approaches to semantics and different applications. This report is intended as a first step towards the investigation of…

Accurate uncertainty quantification is crucial for the safe deployment of machine learning models, and prior research has demonstrated improvements in the calibration of modern language models (LMs). We study in-context learning (ICL), a…

Several combinatorial optimization problems can be solved with NISQ devices once that a corresponding quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) form is derived. The aim of this work is to drastically reduce the variables needed for…

Effective Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) represents a key aspect for reliable deployment of Large Language Models (LLMs) in automated decision-making and beyond. Yet, for LLM generation with multiple choice structure, the state-of-the-art…

In this paper we focus on the unconstrained binary quadratic optimization model, maximize x^t Qx, x binary, and consider the problem of identifying optimal solutions that are robust with respect to perturbations in the Q matrix.. We are…

The necessity to deal with uncertain data is a major challenge in decision making. Robust optimization emerged as one of the predominant paradigms to produce solutions that hedge against uncertainty. In order to obtain an even more…

Quantum Annealing (QA) can efficiently solve combinatorial optimization problems whose objective functions are represented by Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) formulations. For broader applicability of QA, quadratization…

We study compression strategies for multipartite entanglement distribution under uncertainty in the partitioning of the quantum state. When the partition is not known at the time of state preparation, we show that a joint design of the…

We consider classical and entanglement-assisted versions of a distributed computation scheme that computes nonlinear Boolean functions of a set of input bits supplied by separated parties. Communication between the parties is restricted to…

We propose a new encoding of the first-order connection method as a Boolean satisfiability problem. The encoding eschews tree-like presentations of the connection method in favour of matrices, as we show that tree-like calculi have a number…

We present an alternative proof of the NEXP-hardness of the satisfiability of {\em Dependency Quantified Boolean Formulas} (DQBF). Besides being simple, our proof also gives us a general method to reduce NEXP-complete problems to DQBF. We…
