The Cognitive Engineering and Databases Research Group has been conducting research, development, and innovation activities since 2014 to advance the development of intelligent socio-technical systems. The primary focus is on formal models based on computational logic, hybrid developments with Neuro-Symbolic Artificial Intelligence, and tools to support the cognitive processes of users of modern information systems.
The main topics in which activities are carried out include:
- Reasoning under uncertainty
- Cybersecurity
- inconsistency handling
- Reasoning with preferences
- Ontology languages for the Semantic Web
- Belief revision
- Information Integration
- Neuro-Symbolic Artificial Intelligence (hybrid systems combining machine learning with logic-based models)
The analysis of computational tractability (both theoretical and practical) plays a significant role in the R+D+I efforts across all these topics.
