Logic languages based on the theory of rational, possibly infinite, trees have much appeal in that rational trees allow for faster unification (due to the safe omission of the occurs-check) and increased expressivity (cyclic terms can…

In Programming by Example, a system attempts to infer a program from input and output examples, generally by searching for a composition of certain base functions. Performing a naive brute force search is infeasible for even mildly involved…

Humans surpass the cognitive abilities of most other animals in our ability to "chunk" concepts into words, and then combine the words to combine the concepts. In this process, we make "infinite use of finite means", enabling us to learn…

Program equivalence in linear contexts, where programs are used or executed exactly once, is an important issue in programming languages. However, existing techniques like those based on bisimulations and logical relations only target at…

We explore the use of large pretrained language models as few-shot semantic parsers. The goal in semantic parsing is to generate a structured meaning representation given a natural language input. However, language models are trained to…

Proof assistants are software-based tools that are used in the mechanization of proof construction and validation in mathematics and computer science, and also in certified program development. Different tools are being increasingly used in…
