Polar codes asymptotically achieve the symmetric capacity of memoryless channels, yet their error-correcting performance under successive-cancellation (SC) decoding for short and moderate length codes is worse than that of other modern…
Functional constraints and bi-functional constraints are an important constraint class in Constraint Programming (CP) systems, in particular for Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) systems. CP systems with finite domain constraints usually…

In this paper, we present a novel decoding algorithm of a polar code, named SC-Fano decoding, by appropriately incorporating the Fano sequential decoding into the standard successive-cancellation (SC) decoding. The proposed SC-Fano decoding…
The Software Transactional Memory (STM) model is an original approach for controlling concurrent accesses to ressources without the need for explicit lock-based synchronization mechanisms. A key feature of STM is to provide a way to group…
Type-preserving translations are effective rigorous tools in the study of core programming calculi. In this paper, we develop a new typed translation that connects sequential and concurrent calculi; it is governed by type systems that…
Polar codes are a class of capacity-achieving codes for the binary-input discrete memoryless channels (B-DMCs). However, when applied in channels with intersymbol interference (ISI), the codes may perform poorly with BCJR equalization and…
Gradient descent, and coordinate descent in particular, are core tools in machine learning and elsewhere. Large problem instances are common. To help solve them, two orthogonal approaches are known: acceleration and parallelism. In this…
Simultaneous speech-to-text translation is widely useful in many scenarios. The conventional cascaded approach uses a pipeline of streaming ASR followed by simultaneous MT, but suffers from error propagation and extra latency. To alleviate…

Choreographic programming (CP) is a paradigm for implementing distributed systems that uses a single global program to define the actions and interactions of all participants. Library-level CP implementations, like HasChor, integrate well…
In this report we define an encoding of Levys call-by-push-value lambda-calculus (CBPV) in the pi-calculus, and prove that our encoding is both sound and complete. We present informal (by-hand) proofs of soundness, completeness, and all…
Building robust natural language understanding systems will require a clear characterization of whether and how various linguistic meaning representations complement each other. To perform a systematic comparative analysis, we evaluate the…

Polar codes achieve outstanding error correction performance when using successive cancellation list (SCL) decoding with cyclic redundancy check. A larger list size brings better decoding performance and is essential for practical…
We consider the problem of (almost) lossless source coding of two correlated memoryless sources using separate encoders and a joint decoder, that is, Slepian-Wolf (S-W) coding. In our setting, the encoding and decoding are asynchronous,…
SC-LDPC codes with sub-block locality can be decoded locally at the level of sub-blocks that are much smaller than the full code block, thus providing fast access to the coded information. The same code can also be decoded globally using…
