Gluecons: A generic benchmark for learning under constraints.
Published in Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI 2023), 2023
This work introduces a benchmark of nine NLP and vision tasks to systematically evaluate deep learning models that integrate external knowledge as constraints. The benchmark enables richer comparison through extended evaluation criteria and highlights research challenges in constraint-based learning.

A Survey on Compositional Learning of AI Models: Theoretical and Experimetnal Practices
Published in Transactions on Machine Learning Research (TMLR), 2024
We provide a comprehensive survey of compositional learning in AI, linking cognitive theories to computational models and evaluating how language and vision systems—including modern LLMs—handle compositional reasoning. Our analysis clarifies current capabilities, limitations, and future research challenges.

Neuro-symbolic Training for Reasoning over Spatial Language
Published in Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: NAACL 2025 (NAACL 2025 Finding), 2025
We address LLM limitations in complex spatial reasoning by introducing a neuro-symbolic training method that guides models using spatial logical rules. The technique improves generalization and yields strong gains on spatial QA benchmarks, particularly for multi-step reasoning.

Toward a Clearer Characterization of Neuro-Symbolic Frameworks: A Brief Comparative Analysis.
Published in NeSy 2025, Proceedings of Machine Learning Research (PMLR) 2025., 2025
We examine the technical foundations of Neurosymbolic (NeSy) modeling, identifying how existing frameworks integrate symbolic representations with neural architectures and where they fall short—particularly in usability and generality. By comparing three generic NeSy systems, we outline key challenges and directions needed to advance problem-solving capabilities in future NeSy frameworks.

FoR-SALE: Frame of Reference-guided Spatial Adjustment in LLM-based Diffusion Editing
Published in Preprint, Arxiv, 2025
We introduce FoR-SALE, a diffusion editing framework that incorporates spatial Frame of Reference reasoning to improve text-to-image generation. By detecting and correcting FoR misalignment between language and vision, FoR-SALE enhances spatial accuracy and improves state-of-the-art model performance by up to 5.3\%.

FoREST: Frame of Reference Evaluation in Spatial Reasoning Tasks
Published in Proceedings of the 2025 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP 2025 Main), 2025
We introduce FoREST, a benchmark designed to evaluate Frame-of-Reference (FoR) comprehension in spatial reasoning tasks. Results show major gaps in FoR understanding across LLMs and text-to-image systems, and our Spatial-Guided prompting method improves their spatial reasoning performance.🏆 SAC Highlight Award.
