Stochastic lambda calculus and monads of probability distributions
Probability distributions are useful for expressing the meanings of probabilistic languages, which support formal modeling of and reasoning about uncertainty. Probability distribu...

Stochastic Ambient Calculus
Mobile Ambients (MA) have acquired a fundamental role in modelling mobility in systems with mobile code and mobile devices, and in computation over administrative domains. We pres...

Church: a language for generative models
Formal languages for probabilistic modeling enable re-use, modularity, and descriptive clarity, and can foster generic inference techniques. We introduce Church, a universal langu...

Synthesizing Stochasticity in Biochemical Systems
Randomness is inherent to biochemistry: at each instant, the sequence of reactions that fires is a matter of chance. Some biological systems exploit such randomness, choosing betw...

Computing Robust Plans in Continuous Domains
We define the robustness of a sequential plan as the probability that it will execute successfully despite uncertainty in the execution environment. We consider a rich notion of u...
