We present a language to specify syntax guided synthesis (SyGuS) problems. Syntax guidance is a prominent theme in contemporary program synthesis approaches, and SyGuS was first described in [1]. This paper describes concretely the input…

We propose a counterexample-guided inductive synthesis framework for the formal synthesis of closed-form sampled-data controllers for nonlinear systems to meet STL specifications over finite-time trajectories. Rather than stating the STL…

This paper introduces a general approach for synthesizing procedural models of the state-transitions of a given discrete system. The approach is general in that it accepts different target languages for modeling the state-transitions of a…

Given a specification $\varphi(X,Y)$ over inputs $X$ and output $Y$, defined over a background theory $\mathbb{T}$, the problem of program synthesis is to design a program $f$ such that $Y=f(X)$ satisfies the specification $\varphi$. Over…

Semantic parsing has made significant progress, but most current semantic parsers are extremely slow (CKY-based) and rather primitive in representation. We introduce three new techniques to tackle these problems. First, we design the first…

Dependent types help programmers write highly reliable code. However, this reliability comes at a cost: it can be challenging to write new prototypes in (or migrate old code to) dependently-typed programming languages. Gradual typing makes…
