Advancing first principle-based molecular dynamics of biological systems with machine learning

François Louis Mouvet

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have emerged as a transformative approach to analyse molecular systems at the atomic level, offering valuable insights into complex biological processes. Many biological phenomena can only accurately be described by inco ...

The splay-list: a distribution-adaptive concurrent skip-list

Dan Alistarh, Amirkeivan Mohtashami

The design and implementation of efficient concurrent data structures has seen significant attention. However, most of this work has focused on concurrent data structures providing good worst-case guarantees, although, in real workloads, objects are often ...

On the advantages of P2P ML on mobile devices

Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

Many fields make use nowadays of machine learning (ML) enhanced applications for cost optimization, scheduling or forecasting, in- cluding the energy sector. However, these very ML algorithms consume a significant amount of energy, sometimes going against ...

A case for DOT: Theoretical Foundations for Objects with Pattern Matching and GADT-Style Reasoning

Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux, Aleksander Slawomir Boruch-Gruszecki, Yichen Xu

Many programming languages in the OO tradition now support pattern matching in some form. Historical examples include Scala and Ceylon, with the more recent additions of Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, and Flow. But pattern matching on generic class hierarchies ...

GARFIELD: System Support for Byzantine Machine Learning (Regular Paper)

Rachid Guerraoui, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

We present GARFIELD, a library to transparently make machine learning (ML) applications, initially built with popular (but fragile) frameworks, e.g., TensorFlow and PyTorch, Byzantine–resilient. GARFIELD relies on a novel object–oriented design, reducing t ...

Fast screening of covariates in population models empowered by machine learning

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

One of the objectives of Pharmacometry (PMX) population modeling is the identification of significant and clinically relevant relationships between parameters and covariates. Here, we demonstrate how this complex selection task could benefit from supervise ...

Learning and leveraging shared domain semantics to counteract visual domain shifts

Róger Bermúdez Chacón

One of the main limitations of artificial intelligence today is its inability to adapt to unforeseen circumstances. Machine Learning (ML), due to its data-driven nature, is particularly susceptible to this. ML relies on observations in order to learn impli ...

Ductility reduction factor formulations for seismic design of RC wall and frame structures

Katrin Beyer, Matteo Zerbin

Seismic design of standard structures is typically founded on a force-based design approach. Over the years this approach has proven robust and easily applicable by design engineers and - in combination with capacity design principles - it provides a good ...

Contract-Based Resource Verification for Higher-Order Functions with Memoization

Viktor Kuncak, Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan

We present a new approach for specifying and verifying resource utilization of higher-order functional programs that use lazy evaluation and memoization. In our approach, users can specify the desired resource bound as templates with numerical holes e.g. a ...

Interactive Programming by Example

Mikaël Mayer

As of today, programming has never been so accessible. Yet, it remains a challenge for end-users: students, non-technical employees, experts in their domains outside of computer science, and so on. With its forecast potential for solving problems by only o ...

Higher-Order Subtyping with Type Intervals

Sandro Stucki

Modern, statically typed programming languages provide various abstraction facilities at both the term- and type-level. Common abstraction mechanisms for types include parametric polymorphism -- a hallmark of functional languages -- and subtyping -- which ...

Type Soundness for Dependent Object Types (DOT)

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Scala's type system unifies aspects of ML modules, object-oriented, and functional programming. The Dependent Object Types (DOT) family of calculi has been proposed as a new theoretic foundation for Scala and similar expressive languages. Unfortunately, ty ...

A generic algorithm for checking exhaustivity of pattern matching

Fengyun Liu

Algebraic data types and pattern matching are key features of functional programming languages. Exhaustivity checking of pattern matching is a safety belt that defends against unmatched exceptions at runtime and boosts type safety. However, the presence of ...

Self-Assembly: Lightweight Language Extension and Datatype Generic Programming, All-in-One!

Philipp Haller, Heather Christine Klug

In this paper we show a general mechanism, called self-assembly, for lightweight language extensions (LLEs). LLEs allow users to define generic operations or properties that operate over a large class of types. With LLEs it is possible, for example, for us ...

Secure Computing with the MPEG RVC Framework

Marco Mattavelli, Richard Thavot, Junaid Jameel Ahmad

Recently, ISO/IEC standardized a dataflow-programming framework called Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) for the specification of video codecs. The RVC framework aims at providing the specification of a system at a high abstraction level so that the functi ...

Finding Almost-Invariants in Distributed Systems

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Maysam Yabandeh

It is notoriously hard to develop dependable distributed systems. This is partly due to the difficulties in foreseeing various corner cases and failure scenarios while implementing a system that will be deployed over an asynchronous network. In contrast, r ...
