We address the challenge of semantic gap reduction for image retrieval through an improved SVM-based active relevance feedback framework, together with a hybrid visual and concept...
Abstract. Denotational semantics for a substantial fragment of Java is formalized by deep embedding in PVS, making extensive use of dependent types. A static analyzer for secure in...
We present a general theory of Gifford-style type and effect annotations, where effect annotations are sets of effects. Generality is achieved by recourse to the theory of algebra...
Abstract. In this paper, we give an operational and denotational semantics for a 3APL meta-language, with which various 3APL interpreters can be programmed. We moreover prove equiv...

We consider a parallel Algol-like language, combining procedures with shared-variable parallelism. Procedures permit encapsulation of common parallel programming idioms. Local var...
