Land Cover Mapping From Multiple Complementary Experts Under Heavy Class Imbalance

Devis Tuia, Valérie Zermatten, Javiera Francisca Castillo Navarro, Xiaolong Lu

Deep learning has emerged as a promising avenue for automatic mapping, demonstrating high efficacy in land cover categorization through various semantic segmentation models. Nonetheless, the practical deployment of these models encounters important challen ...

Type-Preserving Compilation of Class-Based Languages

Guillaume André Fradji Martres

The Dependent Object Type (DOT) calculus was designed to put Scala on a sound basis, but while DOT relies on structural subtyping, Scala is a fundamentally class-based language. This impedance mismatch means that a proof of DOT soundness by itself is ...

A Coarse-mesh Methodology for the Analysis of One and Two-phase Nuclear Reactor Thermal-hydraulics in a Multi-physics Context

Stefan Radman

The analysis of nuclear reactors for performance and safety assessment benefits from the use of computational tools. In this context, this work aims at the development and application of a thermal-hydraulics methodology and related software that respond to ...

Enclosure: Language-Based Restriction of Untrusted Libraries

James Richard Larus, Mathias Josef Payer, Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn

Programming languages and systems have failed to address the security implications of the increasingly frequent use of public libraries to construct modern software. Most languages provide tools and online repositories to publish, import, and use libraries ...

Safe initialization of objects

Fengyun Liu

The inception of object-oriented programming introduces a category of bugs related to object construction: initialization errors. Every newly created object goes through several initialization states: starting from a state where all fields are uninitialize ...

SpecROP: Speculative Exploitation of ROP Chains

Mathias Josef Payer, Atri Bhattacharyya, Andrés Sánchez Marín

Speculative execution attacks, such as Spectre, reuse code from the victim’s binary to access and leak secret information during speculative execution. Every variant of the attack requires very particular code sequences, necessitating elaborate gadget-sear ...

Using A Priori Knowledge to Improve Scene Understanding

Alexandre Massoud Alahi

Semantic segmentation algorithms that can robustly segment objects across multiple camera viewpoints are crucial for assuring navigation and safety in emerging applications such as autonomous driving. Existing algorithms treat each image in isolation, but ...

Initialization patterns in Dotty

Martin Odersky, Fengyun Liu

Safe object initialization is important to avoid a category of runtime errors in programming languages. In this paper, we provide a case study of the initialization patterns on the Dotty compiler. In particular, we find that calling dynamic-dispatching met ...

A Comparison between Two Automatic Assessment Approaches for Programming: An Empirical Study on MOOCs

Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann

Computer-graders have been in regular use in the context of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). The automatic grading of programs presents an opportunity to assess and provide tailored feedback to large classes, while featuring at the same time a number o ...

Cross-Platform Language Design

Sébastien Jean R Doeraene

Programming languages are increasingly compiled to multiple runtimes, each featuring their own rich structures such as their object model. Furthermore, they need to interact with other languages targeting said runtimes. A language targeting only one runtim ...
