We are working to create the first automatic deductive synthesis of a unification algorithm. The program is extracted from a proof of the existence of an output substitution that satisfies a given logical specification.

This paper presents a novel diagnosis cloud framework that enables the extraction and transfer of knowledge from one network to another. It also presents use cases and requirements. We present the implementation details of the diagnosis cloud framework for two specific types of models: topic models and Markov Logic Networks (MLNs).

In this report, a group of computer scientists and security experts, many of whom participated in a 1997 study of these same topics, has convened to explore the likely effects of imposing extraordinary access mandates.

We have demonstrated how combining chemoinformatics and bioinformatics for T. cruzi drug discovery can bring interesting in vivo active molecules to light that may have been overlooked.

Virginia’s government recently examined the AVS WinVote and learned that the vulnerabilities are more serious than any other voting system, allowing complete exploitation over a Wi-Fi network.

This paper investigates the foundational differences and the impacts on the analysis when using models with discrete time and models with dense time.

We present an approach for detecting sensor spoofing attacks on a cyber-physical system. Our approach consists of two steps. In the first step, we construct a safety envelope of the system. In the second step, we build an attack detector: a monitor that executes synchronously with the system and raises an alarm whenever the system state falls outside…

In this paper, relying on a well-curated biology KB, we present a specific implementation of comparison questions inspired by a general model of analogical reasoning.

We describe a distributed logical framework designed to serve as a declarative semantic foundation for Networked Cyber-Physical Systems.

In this paper, we construct a rewrite closure for term rewrite systems that satisfy two properties: the right-hand side term in each rewrite rule contains no repeated variable (right-linear) and contains no variable at depth greater than one (right-shallow).
