This article presents new alternatives to the similarity function for the TextRank algorithm for automatic summarization of texts. We describe the generalities of the algorithm and the different functions we propose. Some of these variants…

In this paper, we study three matching problems all of which came up quite recently in the field of machine teaching. The cost of a matching is defined in such a way that, for some formal model of teaching, it equals (or bounds) the number…

Recent years the task of incomplete utterance rewriting has raised a large attention. Previous works usually shape it as a machine translation task and employ sequence to sequence based architecture with copy mechanism. In this paper, we…

Automated theorem provers (ATPs) can disprove conjectures by saturating a set of clauses, but the resulting saturated sets are opaque certificates. In the unit equational fragment, a saturated set can in fact be read as a convergent rewrite…

The scarcity of high-quality, logically sound data is a critical bottleneck for advancing the mathematical reasoning of Large Language Models (LLMs). Our work confronts this challenge by turning decades of automated theorem proving research…

We study textual autocomplete---the task of predicting a full sentence from a partial sentence---as a human-machine communication game. Specifically, we consider three competing goals for effective communication: use as few tokens as…

Execution of concurrent programs implies frequent switching between different thread contexts. This property perplexes analyzing and reasoning about concurrent programs. Trace simplification is a technique that aims at alleviating this…

Recently, the saturation problem of $0$-$1$ matrices gained a lot of attention. This problem can be regarded as a saturation problem of ordered bipartite graphs. Motivated by this, we initiate the study of the saturation problem of ordered…

We target the problem of automatically synthesizing proofs of semantic equivalence between two programs made of sequences of statements. We represent programs using abstract syntax trees (AST), where a given set of semantics-preserving…
