A variety of logical frameworks support the use of higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS) in representing formal systems. Although these systems seem superficially the same, they differ in a variety of ways; for example, how they handle a…

Working with causal models at different levels of abstraction is an important feature of science. Existing work has already considered the problem of expressing formally the relation of abstraction between causal models. In this paper, we…

Predictive models are fundamental to engineering reliable software systems. However, designing conservative, computable approximations for the behavior of programs (static analyses) remains a difficult and error-prone process for modern…

Human intelligence relies in part on our brains' ability to create abstract mental models that succinctly capture the hidden blueprint of our reality. Such abstract world models notably allow us to rapidly navigate novel situations by…

We proposes a platform which can generate hardware/software description based on flexible in-struction set architectures (ISAs). The platform takes advantage of the flexibility of field pro-grammable gate array (FPGA) to design many micro…

Statistical learning algorithms are finding more and more applications in science and technology. Atomic-scale modeling is no exception, with machine learning becoming commonplace as a tool to predict energy, forces and properties of…

Where full static analysis of systems fails to scale up due to system size, dynamic monitoring has been increasingly used to ensure system correctness. The downside is, however, runtime overheads which are induced by the additional…

In-memory computing (IMC) offloads parts of the computations to memory to fulfill the performance and energy demands of applications such as neuromorphic computing, machine learning, and image processing. Fortunately, the main features that…

Latent structure models are a powerful tool for modeling language data: they can mitigate the error propagation and annotation bottleneck in pipeline systems, while simultaneously uncovering linguistic insights about the data. One challenge…

In this paper, we propose a compositional approach to construct opacity-preserving finite abstractions (a.k.a symbolic models) for networks of discrete-time nonlinear control systems. Particularly, we introduce new notions of simulation…

This report makes the case that a well-designed Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) can match, and even exceed, the performance and code density of existing commercial Complex Instruction Set Computers (CISC) while maintaining the…

We present a new efficient algortithm for construction of linear latent structure (LLS) models. This algorithm reduces a problem of estimation of model parameters to a sequence of problems of linear algebra, which assures a low…

Recent analysis of classical algorithms resulted in their axiomatization as transition systems satisfying some simple postulates, and in the formulation of the Abstract State Machine Theorem, which assures us that any classical algorithm…

Modern machine learning models are opaque, and as a result there is a burgeoning academic subfield on methods that explain these models' behavior. However, what is the precise goal of providing such explanations, and how can we demonstrate…

Most widely-used pre-trained language models operate on sequences of tokens corresponding to word or subword units. By comparison, token-free models that operate directly on raw text (bytes or characters) have many benefits: they can…

In-context learning (ICL) facilitates Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibiting emergent ability on downstream tasks without updating billions of parameters. However, in the area of multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs), two problems…

Unsatisfiable core analysis can boost the computation of optimum stable models for logic programs with weak constraints. However, current solvers employing unsatisfiable core analysis either run to completion, or provide no suboptimal…

Proving the correctness of programs written for multiple processors is a challenging problem, due in no small part to the weaker memory guarantees afforded by most modern architectures. In particular, the existence of store buffers means…

In this study, we propose a novel computing paradigm "Bit Stream Computing" that is constructed on the logic used in stochastic computing, but does not necessarily employ randomly or Binomially distributed bit streams as stochastic…

AI applications increasingly run on fast-evolving, heterogeneous hardware to maximize performance, but general-purpose libraries lag in supporting these features. Performance-minded programmers often build custom communication stacks that…
