Serial dependence in visual perception: A review

David Pascucci, Gizay Ceylan, Ayberk Ozkirli

How does the visual system represent continuity in the constantly changing visual input? A recent proposal is that vision is serially dependent: Stimuli seen a moment ago influence what we perceive in the present. In line with this, recent frameworks sugge ...

Gemini: Elastic SNARKs for Diverse Environments

Alessandro Chiesa

We introduce a new class of succinct arguments, that we call elastic. Elastic SNARKs allow the prover to allocate different resources (such as memory and time) depending on the execution environment and the statement to prove. The resulting output is indep ...

Semantics-preserving inlining for metaprogramming

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene, Angelos Bimpoudis

Inlining is used in many different ways in programming languages: some languages use it as a compiler-directive solely for optimization, some use it as a metaprogramming feature, and others lay their design in-between. This paper presents inlining through ...
