Datalog is a deductive language tailored for easy database access. We introduce an algebraic modeling language in Datalog for mixed-integer linear optimization models. By using this language, data can be easily queried from a database by means of Datalog and combined with models to produce problem instances readily available to solvers, providing an advantage over conventional optimization modeling languages that rely on reading data via plug-in tools or importing data from external sources via standard files.

Machine Learning through Database Glasses, NeurIPS 2021
This talk explores several techniques to improve the runtime performance of machine learning by taking advantage of the underlying structure of relational data. While most data scientists use relational data in their work, the data science tooling that works with relational data is quite lacking today. Let’s explore these new techniques and see how we can drastically improve machine learning through a database-oriented lens.
