Divide and Abstract: Autoformalization via Decomposition and Abstraction Learning

ICLR 2026poster

Autoformalization, the task of translating informal mathematics into formal machine-verifiable languages, has long been challenging, even for individual statements. Beyond the statement level, mathematicians invest substantial effort in formalizing reusable abstractions such as common definitions an…

Position: The Case for Theory-Level Autoformalization

ICML 2026spotlight

Autoformalization, translating informal natural language into formal, machine-verifiable languages, has been framed as a tool to generate training data for neural theorem provers, with most work focusing on individual statements. This position paper argues for theory-level autoformalization: formali…

APPL: A Prompt Programming Language for Harmonious Integration of Programs and Large Language Model Prompts

ACL 2025long

Large Language Models (LLMs) have become increasingly capable of handling diverse tasks with the aid of well-crafted prompts and integration of external tools, but as task complexity rises, the workflow involving LLMs can be complicated and thus challenging to implement and maintain. To address this…

Decoupling Training-Free Guided Diffusion by ADMM

CVPR 2025poster

In this paper, we consider the conditional generation problem by guiding off-the-shelf unconditional diffusion models with differentiable loss functions in a plug-and-play fashion. While previous research has primarily focused on balancing the unconditional diffusion model and the guided loss throug…

Proving Olympiad Inequalities by Synergizing LLMs and Symbolic Reasoning

ICLR 2025poster

Large language models (LLMs) can prove mathematical theorems formally by generating proof steps (\textit{a.k.a.} tactics) within a proof system. However, the space of possible tactics is vast and complex, while the available training data for formal proofs is limited, posing a significant challenge…

Autoformalize Mathematical Statements by Symbolic Equivalence and Semantic Consistency

NeurIPS 2024poster

Autoformalization, the task of automatically translating natural language descriptions into a formal language, poses a significant challenge across various domains, especially in mathematics. Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) have unveiled their promising capabilities to formalize…

Autoformalizing Euclidean Geometry

ICML 2024poster

Autoformalization involves automatically translating informal math into formal theorems and proofs that are machine-verifiable. Euclidean geometry provides an interesting and controllable domain for studying autoformalization. In this paper, we introduce a neuro-symbolic framework for autoformalizin…

LogiCity: Advancing Neuro-Symbolic AI with Abstract Urban Simulation

NeurIPS 2024poster

Recent years have witnessed the rapid development of Neuro-Symbolic (NeSy) AI systems, which integrate symbolic reasoning into deep neural networks. However, most of the existing benchmarks for NeSy AI fail to provide long-horizon reasoning tasks with complex multi-agent interactions. Furthermore, t…

Neuro-symbolic Learning Yielding Logical Constraints

NeurIPS 2023poster

Neuro-symbolic systems combine the abilities of neural perception and logical reasoning. However, end-to-end learning of neuro-symbolic systems is still an unsolved challenge. This paper proposes a natural framework that fuses neural network training, symbol grounding, and logical constraint synthes…
