This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $450,000 to Princeton University to develop "Differentiable Logic Networks" - an interpretable and energy-efficient approach to implementing artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning frameworks. The project aims to address the key challenge of making AI-based decisions more transparent and explainable, particularly for applications in domains like medical and legal where understanding the reasoning behind decisions is critical. The research focuses on new synthesis methodologies to create these specialized neural network architectures that utilize logic operations instead of traditional matrix multiplications. In addition to advancing the technical capabilities, the project will also train graduate and undergraduate students, as well as provide STEM education outreach to high school students. The outcomes will be disseminated through publications, presentations, and publicly available tools and models to benefit the broader academic and industrial research communities working on AI and machine learning.
