Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neurosymbolic learning and reasoning systems aim to unify the strengths of symbolic reasoning and neural networks. This area of research focuses on integrating various forms of information—from unstructured data and language models to structured knowledge graphs—into a cohesive framework that enhances learning and reasoning capabilities. The core challenge lies in developing methods that effectively combine these diverse information sources, enabling declarative and procedural knowledge to be incorporated into neural architectures or vice versa. Key areas of exploration include the embedding of knowledge graphs within neural networks, synergizing symbolic reasoning with language models, and building unified representations of unstructured data and structured knowledge to enhance neurosymbolic learning methods.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Information is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
