About this opportunity

The National Science Foundation seeks applicants for the Artificial Intelligence, Formal Methods, and Mathematical Reasoning (AIMing) program to support research at the interface of computational and artificial intelligence technologies and mathematical reasoning strategies that automate knowledge discovery, with no application deadline specified in the source material.

Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education (two- and four-year IHEs, including community colleges) accredited and campus-located in the U.S., and non-profit, non-academic organizations such as independent museums, observatories, research laboratories, and professional societies located in the U.S. and directly associated with educational or research activities. Any PI, co-PI, or senior/key personnel must hold either a tenured or tenure-track position, or a primary, full-time, paid appointment in a research or teaching position at a U.S.-based campus of an eligible organization, with exceptions for family or medical leave as determined by the submitting organization. Individuals with primary appointments at for-profit organizations or at overseas branch campuses of U.S. institutions are not eligible.

The program emphasizes machine-assisted mathematical reasoning encompassing conjecture, proof, and verification through formal methods, interactive theorem provers, and artificial intelligence techniques. The source does not specify award ceiling, award floor, expected number of awards, period of performance, place of performance, cost share requirements, evaluation criteria, or weighting. The opportunity is funded under NSF CFDA 47.049 (Mathematical and Physical Sciences).

Synopsis

The Artificial Intelligence, Formal Methods, and Mathematical Reasoning (AIMing) program seeks to support research at the interface of innovative computational and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and new strategies/technologies in mathematical reasoning to automate knowledge discovery. Mathematical reasoning is a central ability of human intelligence that plays an important role in knowledge discovery. In the last decades, both the mathematics and computer science communities have contributed to research in machine-assisted mathematical reasoning, encompassing conjecture, proof, and verification. This has been in the form of both formal methods and interactive theorem provers, as well as using techniques from artificial intelligence. Recent technological advances have led to a surge of interest in machine-assisted mathematical reasoning from the mathematical sciences, formal methods, and AI communities. In turn, advances in this field have potential impact on research in AI.

Eligibility

*Who May Submit Proposals: Proposals may only be submitted by the following: -null -Non-profit, non-academic organizations: Independent museums, observatories, research laboratories, professional societies and similar organizations located in the U.S. that are directly associated with educational or research activities. -Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) - Two- and four-year IHEs (including community colleges) accredited in, and having a campus located in the US, acting on behalf of their faculty members. *Who May Serve as PI: As of the date the proposal is submitted, any PI, co-PI, or senior/key personnel must hold either: · a tenured or tenure-track position, or · a primary, full-time, paid appointment in a research or teaching position at a US-based campus of an organization eligible to submit to this solicitation (see above), with exceptions granted for family or medical leave, as determined by the submitting organization. Individuals with primary appointments at for-profit non-academic organizations or at overseas branch campuses of U.S. institutions of higher education are not eligible.
