Cambria: Resource Abstraction for Parametrized Algebraic Effects and Handlers

Jack Liell-Cock, Sam Staton

The algebraic effects and handlers paradigm separates the concerns of the interface and implementation of computational effects in programming languages. We present Cambria, a lang…

Hippogriff: a semantic approach to uniting core and modules

Owen Lynch, Sam Staton

In this paper we introduce Hippogriff, a language with a module system that unifies syntax between the core level and the module level. Hippogriff's type theory is dependent, with…

Imprecise Probabilistic Programming, Precisely: Credal Sets via Graded Monads, BDDs, and Semiring-Parametric Inference (Functional Pearl)

Jack Liell-Cock, Sam Staton

Imprecise probability generalizes standard probability theory by replacing a single distribution with a convex set of possible distributions. We show that this generalization requi…

An Equational Axiomatization of Dynamic Threads via Algebraic Effects: Presheaves on Finite Relations, Labelled Posets, and Parameterized Algebraic Theories

Ohad Kammar, Jack Liell-Cock, Sam Lindley +2

We use the theory of algebraic effects to give a complete equational axiomatization for dynamic threads. Our method is based on parameterized algebraic theories, which give a concr…

The Relative Monadic Metalanguage

Jack Liell-Cock, Zev Shirazi, Sam Staton

Relative monads provide a controlled view of computation. We generalise the monadic metalanguage to a relative setting and give a complete semantics with strong relative monads. Ad…

Scoped Effects as Parameterized Algebraic Theories

Cristina Matache, Sam Lindley, Sean Moss +3

Notions of computation can be modelled by monads. Algebraic effects offer a characterization of monads in terms of algebraic operations and equational axioms, where operations are…

Probabilistic Programming with Exact Conditions

Dario Stein, Sam Staton

We spell out the paradigm of exact conditioning as an intuitive and powerful way of conditioning on observations in probabilistic programs. This is contrasted with likelihood-based…
