Refinement Reflection turns your favorite programming language into a proof assistant by reflecting the code implementing a user-defined function into the function's (output) refinement type. As a consequence, at uses of the function, the…
Robust text-to-SQL over complex, real-world databases remains brittle even with modern LLMs: iterative refinement often introduces syntactic and semantic drift, corrections tend to be non-transferable across queries, and naive use of large…
A desired but challenging property of compiler verification is compositionality, in the sense that the compilation correctness of a program can be deduced incrementally from that of its substructures ranging from statements, functions, and…
Pattern recognition through the fusion of RGB frames and Event streams has emerged as a novel research area in recent years. Current methods typically employ backbone networks to individually extract the features of RGB frames and event…
The paper is a follow-up of the recently introduced kernel-based framework to identify nonlinear input-output systems regularized by desirable input-output incremental properties. Assuming that the system has fading memory, we propose to…
Our research aims to propose a new performance-explainability analytical framework to assess and benchmark machine learning methods. The framework details a set of characteristics that systematize the performance-explainability assessment…
Formal specification techniques allow expressing idealized specifications, which abstract from restrictions that may arise in implementations. However, partial implementations are universal in software development due to practical…
We propose RT (Refine Thought), a method that can enhance the semantic rea-soning ability of text embedding models. The method obtains the final semanticrepresentation by running multiple forward passes of the text embedding…
Practical checkers based on refinement types use the combination of implicit semantic sub-typing and parametric polymorphism to simplify the specification and automate the verification of sophisticated properties of programs. However, a…
We investigate spatio-temporal event analysis using point processes. Inferring the dynamics of event sequences spatiotemporally has many practical applications including crime prediction, social media analysis, and traffic forecasting. In…
Event camera, a bio-inspired asynchronous triggered camera, offers promising prospects for fusion with frame-based cameras owing to its low latency and high dynamic range. However, calibrating stereo vision systems that incorporate both…
This paper studies the construction of a refinement kernel for a given operator-valued reproducing kernel such that the vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert space of the refinement kernel contains that of the given one as a subspace.…
The paper presents the essential features of a new member of the UML language family that supports working with object-oriented frameworks. This UML extension, called UML-F, allows the explicit representation of framework variation points.…
Before we combine actions and probabilities two very obvious questions should be asked. Firstly, what does "the probability of an action" mean? Secondly, how does probability interact with nondeterminism? Neither question has a single…
In this paper, a Step-wise Refinement model is proposed to elicit requirements in a more effective manner.
A compositional sheaf-theoretic framework for the modeling of complex event-based systems is presented. We show that event-based systems are machines, with inputs and outputs, and that they can be composed with machines of different types,…
Data processing frameworks are an essential part of HEP experiments' software stacks. Frameworks provide a means by which code developers can undertake the essential tasks of physics data processing, accessing relevant inputs and storing…
Over the past decade, most technology companies and a growing number of conventional firms have adopted online experimentation (or A/B testing) into their product development process. Initially, A/B testing was deployed as a static…
Contextual refinement (CR) is one of the standard notions of specifying open programs. CR has two main advantages: (i) (horizontal and vertical) compositionality that allows us to decompose a large contextual refinement into many smaller…
Large-scale pre-trained vision foundation models, such as CLIP, have become de facto backbones for various vision tasks. However, due to their black-box nature, understanding the underlying rules behind these models' predictions and…
