Electroadhesive gripping system and method for gripping an object

Herbert Shea, Vito Cacucciolo, Krishna Manaswi Digumarti

An electroadhesive gripping system and a method for gripping and manipulating an object are disclosed. The invention provides a novel approach particularly useful to pick fabrics or otherwise flat and flexible objects including a method relying on electroa ...

Type-Preserving Compilation of Class-Based Languages

Guillaume André Fradji Martres

The Dependent Object Type (DOT) calculus was designed to put Scala on a sound basis, but while DOT relies on structural subtyping, Scala is a fundamentally class-based language. This impedance mismatch means that a proof of DOT soundness by itself is ...

A case for DOT: Theoretical Foundations for Objects with Pattern Matching and GADT-Style Reasoning

Yichen Xu, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux, Aleksander Slawomir Boruch-Gruszecki

Many programming languages in the OO tradition now support pattern matching in some form. Historical examples include Scala and Ceylon, with the more recent additions of Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, and Flow. But pattern matching on generic class hierarchies ...

Type Soundness Proofs with Definitional Interpreters

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

While type soundness proofs are taught in every graduate PL class, the gap between realistic languages and what is accessible to formal proofs is large. In the case of Scala, it has been shown that its formal model, the Dependent Object Types (DOT) calculu ...

The Essence of Dependent Object Types

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Sandro Stucki, Karl Samuel Grütter

Focusing on path-dependent types, the paper develops foundations for Scala from first principles. Starting from a simple calculus D-

Dependent Object Types

Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. In particular, objects can contain type members, which can be selected as ...

Type Soundness for Dependent Object Types (DOT)

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Scala's type system unifies aspects of ML modules, object-oriented, and functional programming. The Dependent Object Types (DOT) family of calculi has been proposed as a new theoretic foundation for Scala and similar expressive languages. Unfortunately, ty ...

Implementing Higher-Kinded Types in Dotty

Martin Odersky, Guillaume André Fradji Martres, Dmytro Petrashko

dotty is a new, experimental Scala compiler based on DOT, the calculus of Dependent Object Types. Higher-kinded types are a natural extension of first-order lambda calculus, and have been a core construct of Haskell and Scala. As long as such types are jus ...

Generalization of motor resonance during the observation of hand, mouth, and eye movements

Michela Bassolino

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the motor cortex shows that hand action observation (AO) modulates corticospinal excitability (CSE). CSE modulation alternatively maps low-level kinematic characteristics or higher-level features, like object-dire ...

Foundations of Path-Dependent Types

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. An essential ingredient of this unification is the concept of objects wit ...

Typologie des espaces-frontière à l'heure de la globalisation

Martin Schuler

The essay is a contribution to the theory of border effects, offering a synthetic view in the form of a typology. It thematizes the changing nature of the role of borders and their spatial impact: from contiguous territories of traditional boundaries to th ...

Dependent Object Types

Martin Odersky, Nada Amin

We propose a new type-theoretic foundation of Scala and languages like it: the Dependent Object Types (DOT) calculus. DOT models Scala’s path-dependent types, abstract type members and its mixture of nominal and structural typing through the use of reﬁneme ...

Iterative rigid body transformation estimation for visual 3-D object tracking

Aude Billard, Micha Hersch

We present a novel yet simple 3D stereo vision tracking algorithm which computes the position and orientation of an object from the location of markers attached to the object. The novelty of this algorithm is that it does not assume that the markers are tr ...
