Teaching Measurement Fundamentals

While it has always been true that measurements are made to guide decision-making, there is abundant evidence that not all measurement results are meaningful. We give examples of fully-functional, tested and trusted measurement systems producing nonsensica ...

Adaptive Sequential Recommendation for Discussion Forums on MOOCs using Context Trees

Boi Faltings, Fei Mi

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have demonstrated growing popularity and rapid development in recent years. Discussion forums have become crucial components for students and instructors to widely exchange ideas and propagate knowledge. It is important ...

Simplicitly: Foundations and Applications of Implicit Function Types

Martin Odersky, Fengyun Liu, Sandro Stucki, Olivier Eric Paul Blanvillain

Understanding a program entails understanding its context; dependencies, configurations and even implementations are all forms of contexts. Modern programming languages and theorem provers offer an array of constructs to define contexts, implicitly. Scala ...

Synthesis and Reactivity of 1-Allenyltriazenes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Loïc Nicolas Jeanbourquin

1-Aryl-3,3-dialkyltriazenes have received considerable attention in the context of synthetic and medicinal chemistry. In contrast, the chemistry of other unsaturated triazenes is largely unexplored. The synthesis of 1-allenyltriazenes is described. This ne ...

Proactive Synthesis of Recursive Tree-to-String Functions from Examples

Viktor Kuncak, Mikaël Mayer, Jad Hamza

Synthesis from examples enables non-expert users to generate programs by specifying examples of their behavior. A domain-specific form of such synthesis has been recently deployed in a widely used spreadsheet software product. In this paper we contribute t ...

The teacher in the loop: customizing MMLA in blended CSCL scenarios

Maria Jesus Rodriguez Triana

In across-spaces learning scenarios, evidence needs to be gathered from different spaces to obtain a more complete view of the teaching and learning processes. Multimodal learning analytics (MMLA) enables us to gather data from physical spaces, enriching t ...

Polynomially Solvable Instances of the Shortest and Closest Vector Problems With Applications to Compute-and-Forward

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Saeid Sahraei

A particular instance of the shortest vector problem (SVP) appears in the context of compute-and-forward. Despite the NP-hardness of the SVP, we will show that this certain instance can be solved in complexity order O(nψlog(nψ)) , where ψ=sqrt(P ||h||^2+1) ...
