This paper presents the first empirical results to our knowledge on learning synchronous grammars that generate logical forms. Using statistical machine translation techniques, a...
Abstract. We propose a semantic and syntactic framework for modelling linearly used effects, by giving the monadic transforms of the computational lambda calculus (considered as th...
This paper studies continuity of the normal form and the context operators as functions in the infinitary lambda calculus. We consider the Scott topology on the cpo of the finite...
Probability distributions are useful for expressing the meanings of probabilistic languages, which support formal modeling of and reasoning about uncertainty. Probability distribu...
