  • Neurosymbolic AI, as the combination of deep learning and knowledge representation/reasoning methods, is currently receiving significant attention due to its promise to both overcome apparent limitations of pure deep learning systems, and to address the knowledge acquisition bottleneck. This presentation will focus on some recent research advances made at Kansas State University related to Ontologies, Knowledge Graphs and neurosymbolic AI, with particular emphasis on the use of large language models for knowledge graph and ontology engineering, and the use of symbolic AI methods for AI explainability.
