Correct Programs, Executed Correctly: Verifying Specifications And Executions
… remain understudied. This dissertation presents new languages, proof systems, and techniques targeting the verifica-tion of programs and their executions. Domain-specific languages (DSLs) are key in this effort. By restricting program syntax to a mathematically well-understood subset, we prove …

Adding support for heterogeneous parallel architectures to Julia
… difficult. The common GPGPU platforms introduce new languages exclusively for programming the devices, runtime libraries and new tools that have to be integrated into the build process. That means that using them from any language is cumbersome, repetitive and error-prone. Obviously, there is a …

The parallel intermediate language
… runtimes. However, in order to utilize the new runtime systems, users will either need to rewrite all of their applications by hand in the new languages, or be provided with tools to help them move to the new languages. Requiring users to rewrite applications is very costly, time consuming, …

Creating Faculty Guidelines for Collaborative Online International Learning: Design and Development
… plenty of research about using COIL for learning new languages, less is known about how it can support cultural learning in other subjects. To fill this gap, this study reviews current research and teaching practices, then creates a set of easy-to-follow guidelines for instructors from various …

Strategies to Reduce Foreign Language Anxiety in Adult EFL Students of the European Union
… to use deficient or non-existent skills in a new language is more acutely felt in adults than children. Adults approach learning new languages with an assumed level of control over themselves and their environment and can easily become frustrated when they're unable to maintain their usual …

Towards Generalizable Information Extraction with Limited Supervision
… challenges when attempting to generalize to new languages, domains, or types, particularly in the absence of sufficient annotations. Current methods fall short in effectively addressing information extraction (IE) under limited supervision. In this dissertation, we approach information …

Lexical syntax for statistical machine translation
… computational efficiency and fast adaptation to new languages and domains. However, current approaches of Phrase-based SMT lacks the capabilities of producing more grammatical translations and handling long-range reordering while maintaining the grammatical structure of the translation output. …

Framework for Composition of Domain Specific Languages and the Effect of Composition on Re-use of Translation Rules
DSLs are programming languages that have been designed to be used to solve problems in a specific domain. They provide constructs that are high-level and domain-specific to make it easier to implement solutions in the given domain. They frequently also limit the language to the domain, avoiding …

Program Inference and Regeneration via Active Learning
… life cycle, including the development of new software, detection and elimination of defects and security vulnerabilities in existing software, maintenance of legacy software, and integration of existing software into more contexts, with the quality of the resulting software still leaving …

Parsing with sparse annotated resources
… is limited when it comes to parsing sentences in new languages or new grammars. We propose methods for parsing when annotated resources are limited. In the first scenario, we explore an automatic method for mapping language-specific part of- speech (POS) tags into a universal tagset. Universal …

Mapping Genotype to Phenotype using Attribute Grammar
… groups have proposed tools and domain-specific languages to help with the design of artificial DNA molecules. Community standards for exchanging data between these tools, such as the Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL), have been developed. It is increasingly important to be able to perform …

Inductive Bias and Modular Design for Sample-Efficient Neural Language Learning
Most of the world's languages suffer from the paucity of annotated data. This curbs the effectiveness of supervised learning, the most widespread approach to modelling language. Instead, an alternative paradigm could take inspiration from the propensity of children to acquire language from limited …

A case-based approach for supporting the informal computing education of end-user programmers
… about computer science. Rather than building new languages or programming tools, I address these difficulties through new types of instructional materials and opportunities for felicitous engagement with them. This work is contextualized within a specific domain of non-traditional programmers: …

Multilingual multitask joint neural information extraction
… data, it is usually expensive to adapt them for new settings, such as new languages, domains, scenarios, or genres. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to develop more robust and portable models for information extraction tasks and build a joint neural architecture that performs multiple IE …

Contemporary abstract painting and spiritual experience: an investigation through practice
… painting are explored in view of the need for new languages for abstraction and spirituality in both word and image. This is developed alongside. the recognition of the importance of engagement with the contemporary world for abstract painting (in this case via technology). The investigation is …

Effective automatic speech recognition data collection for under–resourced languages
… transcribed speech corpora for under-resourced languages plays a pivotal role in developing automatic speech recognition (ASR) technologies for such languages, a key step in developing these technologies is the effective collection of ASR data, consisting of transcribed audio and associated meta …
