Programs written in dynamic languages make heavy use of features --- run-time type tests, value-indexed dictionaries, polymorphism, and higher-order functions --- that are beyond the reach of type systems that employ either purely syntactic…

Structured neuron encapsulation introduces a modular framework that enables more effective aggregation and specialization of information within deep learning architectures. A model modified through this framework demonstrated improved…

Nested words are a structured model of execution paths in procedural programs, reflecting their call and return nesting structure. Finite nested words also capture the structure of parse trees and other tree-structured data, such as XML. We…
