Syntactically and Semantically Regular Languages of λ-Terms Coincide Through Logical Relations

Authors: Vincent Moreau and Lê Thành Dũng (Tito) Nguyễn

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 288, 32nd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2024)


Abstract
A fundamental theme in automata theory is regular languages of words and trees, and their many equivalent definitions. Salvati has proposed a generalization to regular languages of simply typed λ-terms, defined using denotational semantics in finite sets. We provide here some evidence for its robustness. First, we give an equivalent syntactic characterization that naturally extends the seminal work of Hillebrand and Kanellakis connecting regular languages of words and syntactic λ-definability. Second, we show that any finitary extensional model of the simply typed λ-calculus, when used in Salvati’s definition, recognizes exactly the same class of languages of λ-terms as the category of finite sets does. The proofs of these two results rely on logical relations and can be seen as instances of a more general construction of a categorical nature, inspired by previous categorical accounts of logical relations using the gluing construction.

Sprinter: A Didactic Linter for Structured Programming

Authors: Francisco Alfredo, André L. Santos, and Nuno Garrido

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 102, Third International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2022)


Abstract
Code linters are tools for detecting improper uses of programming constructs and violations of style issues. Despite that professional linters are available for numerous languages, they are not targeted to introductory programming, given their prescriptive nature that does not take into consideration a didactic viewpoint of learning programming fundamentals. We present Sprinter, a didactic code linter for structured programming supporting Java whose novelty aspects are twofold: (a) providing formative feedback on code with comprehensive explanatory messages (rather then prescriptive); (b) capability of detecting some control-flow issues to a deeper extent than professional linters. We review Sprinter features against popular tools, namely IntelliJ IDEA and Sonarlint.

Algorithms for Normalized Multiple Sequence Alignments

Authors: Eloi Araujo, Luiz C. Rozante, Diego P. Rubert, and Fábio V. Martinez

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 212, 32nd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2021)


Abstract
Sequence alignment supports numerous tasks in bioinformatics, natural language processing, pattern recognition, social sciences, and other fields. While the alignment of two sequences may be performed swiftly in many applications, the simultaneous alignment of multiple sequences proved to be naturally more intricate. Although most multiple sequence alignment (MSA) formulations are NP-hard, several approaches have been developed, as they can outperform pairwise alignment methods or are necessary for some applications. Taking into account not only similarities but also the lengths of the compared sequences (i.e. normalization) can provide better alignment results than both unnormalized or post-normalized approaches. While some normalized methods have been developed for pairwise sequence alignment, none have been proposed for MSA. This work is a first effort towards the development of normalized methods for MSA. We discuss multiple aspects of normalized multiple sequence alignment (NMSA). We define three new criteria for computing normalized scores when aligning multiple sequences, showing the NP-hardness and exact algorithms for solving the NMSA using those criteria. In addition, we provide approximation algorithms for MSA and NMSA for some classes of scoring matrices.

Coderelictions for Free Exponential Modalities

Authors: Jean-Simon Pacaud Lemay

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 211, 9th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021)


Abstract
In a categorical model of the multiplicative and exponential fragments of intuitionistic linear logic (MELL), the exponential modality is interpreted as a comonad ! such that each cofree !-coalgebra !A comes equipped with a natural cocommutative comonoid structure. An important case is when ! is a free exponential modality so that !A is the cofree cocommutative comonoid over A. A categorical model of MELL with a free exponential modality is called a Lafont category. A categorical model of differential linear logic is called a differential category, where the differential structure can equivalently be described by a deriving transformation !A⊗A →{𝖽_A} !A or a codereliction A →{η_A} !A. Blute, Lucyshyn-Wright, and O'Neill showed that every Lafont category with finite biproducts is a differential category. However, from a differential linear logic perspective, Blute, Lucyshyn-Wright, and O'Neill’s approach is not the usual one since the result was stated in the dual setting and the proof is in terms of the deriving transformation 𝖽. In differential linear logic, it is often the codereliction η that is preferred and that plays a more prominent role. In this paper, we provide an alternative proof that every Lafont category (with finite biproducts) is a differential category, where we construct the codereliction η using the couniversal property of the cofree cocommtuative comonoid !A and show that η is unique. To achieve this, we introduce the notion of an infinitesimal augmentation k⊕A →{𝖧_A} !(k ⊕ A), which in particular is a !-coalgebra and a comonoid morphism, and show that infinitesimal augmentations are in bijective correspondence to coderelictions (and deriving transformations). As such, infinitesimal augmentations provide a new equivalent axiomatization for differential categories in terms of more commonly known concepts. For a free exponential modality, its infinitesimal augmentation is easy to construct and allows one to clearly see the differential structure of a Lafont category, regardless of the construction of !A.

DAOLOT: A Semantic Browser

Authors: João Bruno Silva, André Santos, and José Paulo Leal

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 83, 9th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2020)


Abstract
The goal of the Semantic Web is to allow the software agents around us and AIs to extract information from the Internet as easily as humans do. This semantic web is a network of connected graphs, where relations between concepts and entities make up a layout that is very easy for machines to navigate. At the moment, there are only a few tools that enable humans to navigate this new layer of the Internet, and those that exist are for the most part very specialized tools that require from the user a lot of pre-existing knowledge about the technologies behind this structure. In this article we report on the development of DAOLOT, a search engine that allows users with no previous knowledge of the semantic web to take full advantage of its information network. This paper presents its design, the algorithm behind it and the results of the validation testing conducted with users. The results of our validation testing show that DAOLOT is useful and intuitive to users, even those without any previous knowledge of the field, and provides curated information from multiple sources instantly about any topic.

Raccode: An Eclipse Plugin for Assessment of Programming Exercises (Short Paper)

Authors: André Silva, José Paulo Leal, and José Carlos Paiva

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 62, 7th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2018)


Abstract
IDEs are environments specialized in support during the development of programs. They contain several utilities to code, run, debug, and deploy programs quickly. However, they do not provide the automatic assessment of programming exercises, which is required in both learning and competitive programming environment. Therefore, IDEs are often underestimated in these contexts and replaced by basic code editors. Yet, IDEs have unique features which are essential for programmers, such as the debugger or the package explorer. This paper presents Raccode, a plugin for assessment of programming exercises in Eclipse. This plugin integrates with Mooshak to combine the diverse capabilities of an IDE, like Eclipse, with the automatic evaluation of exercises, clarification requests, printouts, balloons, and rankings. It can be used both in competitive and learning environments. The paper describes Raccode, its concept, architecture and design.
