We propose a framework for reasoning about programs that manipulate coinductive data as well as inductive data. Our approach is based on using equational programs, which support a seamless combination of computation and reasoning, and using…

We propose a symbolic generative task description language and a corresponding inference engine capable of representing arbitrary multimodal tasks as structured symbolic flows. Unlike conventional generative models that rely on large-scale…

Dependently typed programming languages such as Coq, Agda, Idris, and F*, allow programmers to write detailed specifications of their programs and prove their programs meet these specifications. However, these specifications can be violated…

We develop a framework for incorporating structured graphical models in the \emph{encoders} of variational autoencoders (VAEs) that allows us to induce interpretable representations through approximate variational inference. This allows us…

Providing user-understandable explanations to justify recommendations could help users better understand the recommended items, increase the system's ease of use, and gain users' trust. A typical approach to realize it is natural language…

Functional programming languages are particularly well-suited for building automated reasoning systems, since (among other reasons) a logical term is well modeled by an inductive type, traversing a term can be implemented generically as a…

When comparing inductive logic programming (ILP) and attribute-value learning techniques, there is a trade-off between expressive power and efficiency. Inductive logic programming techniques are typically more expressive but also less…

High-dimensional policies, such as those represented by neural networks, cannot be reasonably interpreted by humans. This lack of interpretability reduces the trust users have in policy behavior, limiting their use to low-impact tasks such…

Generative processes in biology and other fields often produce data that can be regarded as resulting from a composition of basic features. Here we present an unsupervised method based on autoencoders for inferring these basic features of…

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…

A novel language system has given rise to promising alternatives to standard formal and processor network models of computation. An interstring linked with a abstract machine environment, shares sub-expressions, transfers data, and…

Explaining artificial intelligence or machine learning models is increasingly important. To use such data-driven systems wisely we must understand how they interact with the world, including how they depend causally on data inputs. In this…

Separation Logic with inductive definitions is a well-known approach for deductive verification of programs that manipulate dynamic data structures. Deciding verification conditions in this context is usually based on user-provided lemmas…

Theory revision integrates inductive learning and background knowledge by combining training examples with a coarse domain theory to produce a more accurate theory. There are two challenges that theory revision and other theory-guided…

Representation theorems for formal systems often take the form of an inductive translation that satisfies certain invariants, which are proved inductively. Theory morphisms and logical relations are common patterns of such inductive…

With the resurgence of interest in neural networks, representation learning has re-emerged as a central focus in artificial intelligence. Representation learning refers to the discovery of useful encodings of data that make domain-relevant…

In this work, we study the fully automated inference of expected result values of probabilistic programs in the presence of natural programming constructs such as procedures, local variables and recursion. While crucial, capturing these…

Dedicated to the memory of Edsger W.Dijkstra. Representation independence or relational parametricity formally characterizes the encapsulation provided by language constructs for data abstraction and justifies reasoning by simulation.…

Word embeddings are usually derived from corpora containing text from many individuals, thus leading to general purpose representations rather than individually personalized representations. While personalized embeddings can be useful to…

Dependently typed programming languages have become increasingly relevant in recent years. They have been adopted in industrial strength programming languages and have been extremely successful as the basis for theorem provers. There are…
