1. **[Deep Network Guided Proof Search](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/loos-2017-deep-network-guided-proof-search/)** *(2017 · 139 citations)* Saturation-based first-order provers struggle to find proofs in large libraries of formal mathematics. This paper addresses that by letting deep neural networks choose which clause the prover E should process next. Training data come from 91,877 existing ATP proofs of Mizar Mathematical Library statements translated…
2. **[HOList: An Environment for Machine Learning of Higher-Order Theorem Proving](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bansal-2019-holist-environment-machine-learning-higher/)** *(2019 · 78 citations)* Learning-based theorem proving has lacked a shared, large-scale benchmark. Existing proof assistants use incompatible logical foundations, and earlier datasets were either small or scored only with proxy metrics. HOList fills this gap. It is an open-source environment built on the HOL Light interactive prover…
