Scala 3 syntax rewriting

We present syntax rewriting rules that translate Scala 2 code into Scala 3. Two major syntactic changes are introduced: new control structure syntax and significant indentation. We describe the design and the implementation of these rules and evaluate thei ...

Does scaling player size skew one’s ability to correctly evaluate object sizes in a virtual environment?

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Mathias Guy Delahaye

This paper presents the results of a study performed in order to evaluate whether a navigation technique, based on scaling the user’s avatar, impacts the user’s ability to correctly assess the size of virtual objects in a virtual environment. This study wa ...

Better Generic Objects Counting When Asking Questions to Images: A Multitask approach for Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger, Sylvain Lobry

Visual Question Answering for Remote Sensing (RSVQA) aims at extracting information from remote sensing images through queries formulated in natural language. Since the answer to the query is also provided in natural language, the system is accessible to n ...

Flexure-based mecano-optical multi-degree-of-freedom transducers dedicated to medical force sensing instruments

Sebastian Krzysztof Fifanski

This thesis develops novel multi-degrees-of-freedom flexure-based force sensors by exploiting white light interferometry. Fabry-Pérot interferometry measurement has nanometric accuracy which yields sub milli-Newton force sensing accuracy. Such force sensin ...

Get real: Orbitofrontal cortex mediates the ability to sense reality in early adolescents

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Roberto Martuzzi, Vanessa Siffredi

Introduction Orbitofrontal reality filtering (ORFi) is a memory mechanism that distinguishes whether a thought is relevant to present reality or not. In adults, it is mediated by the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). This region is still not fully developed in p ...

Interleaving with coroutines: a systematic and practical approach to hide memory latency in index joins

Anastasia Ailamaki, Georgios Psaropoulos

Index joins present a case of pointer-chasing code that causes data cache misses. In principle, we can hide these cache misses by overlapping them with computation: The lookups involved in an index join are parallel tasks whose execution can be interleaved ...

Unifying Analytic and Statically-Typed Quasiquotes

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Metaprograms are programs that manipulate (generate, analyze and evaluate) other programs. These tasks are greatly facilitated by quasiquotation, a technique to construct and deconstruct program fragments using quoted code templates expressed in the syntax ...

Reliable and Real-Time Distributed Abstractions

David Kozhaya

The celebrated distributed computing approach for building systems and services using multiple machines continues to expand to new domains. Computation devices nowadays have additional sensing and communication capabilities, while becoming, at the same tim ...

Verification of Component-based Systems via Predicate Abstraction and Simultaneous Set Reduction

Simon Bliudze, Qiang Wang

This paper presents a novel safety property verification approach for component-based systems modelled in BIP (Behaviour, Interaction and Priority), encompassing multiparty synchronisation with data transfer and priority. Our contributions consist of: (1 ...

Scala AST Persistence

Adrien Ghosn, Eugene Burmako, Mathieu Baptiste Demarne

The Scala compiler uses ASTs (abstract syntax trees) as an intermediate representation before generating bytecode. With the development of Scala macros which expand trees at compile time, being able to access, modify and recompose ASTs within the compilati ...
