Antoine BosselutAntoine Bosselut is an assistant professor at EPFL. He leads the EPFL NLP group, which conducts research on natural language processing (NLP) systems that can model, represent, and reason about human and world knowledge.
Prior to joining EPFL, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University working in the
SNAP
and
NLP
groups and a young investigator on the
Mosaic
project at the
Allen Institute for AI
. He completed his PhD at the University of Washington.
Zsuzsanna Viktoria SzemerediTeaching & PhD Courses Critical thinking I HUM-425 This course will develop logical reasoning and argumentation skills to enable you to influence decision making. You will achieve this by learning how to represent and communicate your reasoning as arguments, and by continuously practicing logical reasoning and problem solving in teams. Critical thinking II HUM-484 Critical Thinking II (HUM 484) builds on concepts acquired in Critical Thinking I (HUM 425). Please read HUM

LLMs (Large Language Models), NLP (Natural Language Processing), Automated Reasoning
Mission
My work focuses on developing robust methods for autoformalization and automated theorem proving using large language models. I aim to enhance the reasoning reliability of modern AI systems by reducing hallucinations, improving predictability, and integrating formal verification techniques and tools into LLM-based pipelines.
Before joining EDIC, I completed a Bachelor’s in Mathematics and Computer Science

Juan Pablo Zuluaga GomezJuan Pablo Zuluaga is currently working at IDIAP as a joint Ph.D. student (second year) with the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland. He is currently working on the EU Horizon 2020 ATCO2 project, dedicated to the development of an Automatic Air Traffic Speech Recognition system, allowing to collect, organize and pre-process air traffic control (voice communication) data from air space. His main interests are automatic speech recognition and speech understanding. Also interested in artificial general intelligence and natural language processing.
