SUMMARY:Auto-formalization via Joint Embeddings
LOCATION:CoRE 431
DESCRIPTION:<p><span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody" style="color: #242424; font-siz
 e: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calib
 ri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In recent years we have witnessed a symbiotic t
 rend wherein LLMs are being combined with provers, solvers, and computer al
 gebra systems, resulting in dramatic breakthroughs in AI for math. Followin
 g this trend, we have developed two lines of work in my research group. The
  first is the idea that "good" joint embeddings (JE) can dramatically impro
 ve the efficacy of LLM-based auto-formalization tools. We say that JEs are 
 good if they respect the following invariant: semantically-equivalent forma
 lly-dissimilar objects (e.g., pairs of sematically-equivalent natural and f
 ormal language proofs) must be "close by" in the embedding space, and seman
 tically inequivalent ones "far apart". We use such JE models as part of a s
 uccessful RAG-based auto-formalization pipeline, demonstrating that such JE
 s are a critical AI-for-math technology. The second idea is Reinforcement L
 earning with Symbolic Feedback (RLSF), a class of techniques that addresses
  the LLM hallucination problem in contexts where we have access to rich sym
 bolic feedback such math, physics, and code,&nbsp;demonstrating that they t
 oo are critical to the success of AI for math.&nbsp;</span></p>
