Theory Driven

Theory-driven research integrates established theoretical frameworks with data-driven methods to enhance model accuracy, interpretability, and robustness. Current research focuses on developing hybrid models, such as combining large language models with knowledge graphs for idea generation, or integrating machine learning with game-theoretic models for strategic decision-making. This approach is improving the efficiency of representation learning, enabling more accurate modeling of complex systems (e.g., soft robotics), and leading to better-performing algorithms in areas like neural architecture search. Ultimately, theory-driven approaches aim to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and practical applications, fostering more reliable and insightful scientific discoveries.
