| 2025 | DreamCreek: AI for Battery Formation and GradingabstractDreamCreek is a system for grading the capacity of lithium-ion battery cells. An electric vehicle (EV) battery pack consists of thousands of lithium-ion cells; these cells must have a balanced capacity, measured by a formation and grading phase. This phase is costly, taking 14-20+ hours. DreamCreek aims to optimize this process, by collecting data from partial charge. Using the data, it determines the capacity of lithium-ion cells by employing both machine learning prediction and logic deduction, to reduce the usage of energy and increase the production. We will demonstrate how DreamCreek works with a guided tour, and show how it reduces the time of the formation and grading phase to 4 hours, with an error rate in the range of [0.06 %, 1%].

| 2024 | Rock: Cleaning Data with both ML and Logic RulesabstractWe demonstrate Rock, a system for cleaning relational data. Rock highlights the following unique features: (1) it extends logic rules by embedding machine learning models as predicates, to benefit from both ML and logic deduction; (2) it supports entity resolution, conflict resolution, timeliness deduction and missing data imputation in a unified process; and (3) it provides parallelly scalable algorithms for rule discovery, error detection and error correction, in batch and incremental modes. We will demonstrate Rock for its (a) easy-to-use interface, (b) scalability when cleaning large datasets, (c) accuracy for detecting and correcting errors across multiple tables, and (d) applications at banks and HR departments.

| 2024 | Graph Association Analyses for Early Drug DiscoveryabstractWe demonstrate MedHunter, a system for assisting the early stage of drug development. MedHunter builds a biomedical knowledge graph DDKG by integrating data from eleven biochemical libraries and data banks, and aligning entities from different data sources by means of heterogeneous entity resolution. It identifies drug-disease associations and protein-protein interactions in DDKG by employing graph association rules (GARs). GARs use graph patterns to extract relevant entities and embed ML models as predicates. MedHunter discovers GARs from DDKG and incrementally enriches DDKG with external data; it cleans DDKG with a special form of GARs. We demonstrate MedHunter for its (a) interfaces, (b) data enrichment/cleaning, and (c) applications in target identification, drug-drug interaction and protein-protein interaction.
