We present a small, formal language for specifying the behavior of simple console I/O programs. The design is driven by the concrete application case of testing interactive Haskell programs written by students. Specifications are…

We explore an approach to type-directed program synthesis rooted in constraint-based type inference techniques. By doing this, we aim to more efficiently synthesize polymorphic code while also tackling advanced typing features such as GADTs…

In this paper we define intensional models for the classical theory of types, thus arriving at an intensional type logic ITL. Intensional models generalize Henkin's general models and have a natural definition. As a class they do not…

Testing has become an indispensable activity of software development, yet writing good and relevant tests remains a quite challenging task. One well-known problem is that it often is impossible or unrealistic to test for every outcome, as…

Previous results on proving confluence for Constraint Handling Rules are extended in two ways in order to allow a larger and more realistic class of CHR programs to be considered confluent. Firstly, we introduce the relaxed notion of…

Large-scale language models show promising text generation capabilities, but users cannot easily control particular aspects of the generated text. We release CTRL, a 1.63 billion-parameter conditional transformer language model, trained to…

Instruction sets, from families like x86 and ARM, are at the center of many ambitious formal-methods projects. Many verification, synthesis, programming, and debugging tools rely on formal semantics of instruction sets, but different tools…

In this paper we describe how to leverage higher-order unification to type check a dependently typed language with meta-variables. The literature usually presents the unification algorithm as a standalone component, however the need to…

We investigate the possibility of modelling the syntax and semantics of natural language by constraints, or rules, imposed by the multi-dimensional type theory Nabla. The only multiplicity we explicitly consider is two, namely one dimension…

We construct an internal language for cartesian closed bicategories. Precisely, we introduce a type theory modelling the structure of a cartesian closed bicategory and show that its syntactic model satisfies an appropriate universal…

In type theory, we can express many practical ideas by attributing some additional data to expressions we operate on during compilation. For instance, some substructural type theories augment variables' typing judgments with the information…

Training data for text classification is often limited in practice, especially for applications with many output classes or involving many related classification problems. This means classifiers must generalize from limited evidence, but…

Refinement type checkers are a powerful way to reason about functional programs. For example, one can prove properties of a slow, specification implementation, porting the proofs to an optimized implementation that behaves the same. Without…

We present a new type system combining occurrence typing, previously used to type check programs in dynamically-typed languages such as Racket, JavaScript, and Ruby, with dependent refinement types. We demonstrate that the addition of…

Haskell, as implemented in the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC), has been adding new type-level programming features for some time. Many of these features---chiefly: generalized algebraic datatypes (GADTs), type families, kind polymorphism,…

Typed Clojure is an optional type system for Clojure, a dynamic language in the Lisp family that targets the JVM. Typed Clojure enables Clojure programmers to gain greater confidence in the correctness of their code via static type checking…

We introduce regular graph constraints and explore their decidability properties. The motivation for regular graph constraints is 1) type checking of changing types of objects in the presence of linked data structures, 2) shape analysis…

Refinement types sharpen systems of simple and dependent types by offering expressive means to more precisely classify well-typed terms. We present a system of refinement types for LF in the style of recent formulations where only canonical…

We propose thresholding as an approach to deal with class imbalance. We define the concept of thresholding as a process of determining a decision boundary in the presence of a tunable parameter. The threshold is the maximum value of this…

We scale layered modal type theory to dependent types, introducing DeLaM, dependent layered modal type theory. This type theory is novel in that we have one uniform type theory in which we can not only compose and execute code, but also…
