This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070), aims to develop a novel neurosymbolic programming framework called "Foundation Model Programming." This framework is designed to generate symbolically interpretable scientific hypotheses from high-dimensional observational data, such as images and videos, across various scientific disciplines like neuroscience, genomics, and ecology.

The $333,333 award, effective from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2028, will support the development of algorithms that can jointly reason over the most useful symbolically interpretable concepts or motifs extracted from raw data, as well as how to compose those concepts into coherent hypotheses. This approach mirrors how humans develop hypotheses by establishing a discrete vocabulary of concepts and reasoning over them, enabling interpretability. The project will be led by Cornell University, a private land-grant research university with a distinguished reputation for delivering cutting-edge scientific and technological solutions to complex national challenges.
