F* is a ML-like programming language aimed at program verification, allowing its users to write programs, specifications, and prove them correct in the same tool.

New York City serves over one million public school students each year, yet relatively little is understood in terms of how students progress through the school system.

Humans make hundreds of routine decisions daily. More often than not, the impact of our decisions depends on the decisions of others.

Computer vision is arguably one of the most challenging subfields of AI.

We review existing cryptographic schemes based on the hardness of computing isogenies between supersingular isogenies, and present some attacks against them.

Since the time of the ancients, Astronomers have been visual thinkers. It was also a hotbed of "data science" and "open science" before those were cool.

How can we explain the predictions of a black-box model?

This demonstration shows a scene with a dragon and banana in the forest and the sentence: “The dragon ate a banana in the forest.” The sentence has a Fontlings idle behavior.

This demonstration shows an early version of Fontlings with the sentence “Fontlings! Are fun and alive!” and the behavior “Happy” applied to the first word, and then to all words in the sentence.

This demonstration shows an iRobot Create with a UMPC (a small Tablet PC with resistive digitizer) on it. The UMPC communicates with the robot via serial port.

This demonstration shows a robotics playset with two robots and toy trees on a PixelSense table which displays the grass on a park with a lake.

This demonstration shows the use of cards that have a word on one side and a tag on the other side on a PixelSense table with the nouns “A banana”, “A dragon”, and “Michel” (personalized actor with

This demonstration shows a child selecting a sentence within an existing story on the device.

This demonstration shows a child creating a new actor by opening the sketch tool, selecting a man body, using a picture for the face, typing a name (“Michel” in this example), and sketching over

This demonstration shows a child typing “Michel kicked the pizza” followed by a period.

This demonstration shows a child typing “Later Michel ate a pizza in the town” followed by a period.

This demonstration shows a child navigating through the pages of a story (one sentence per page) and seeing the corresponding animation for each page.

This demonstration shows the sentence of demo1 being animated while the child enters a new sentence “Then it fell down” follow by period.

This demonstration shows a child typing “Once upon a time a dragon flew over a beach” followed by period and getting an instant reward by seeing the corresponding animation.

Moving computation and services from the desktop and local back office to large, centralized, multi-tenant data centers ("The Cloud") has been the dominant trend of the last decade in computing.

Within integrated development environments (IDEs), such as Visual Studio and Eclipse, program analysis tools perform sophisticated analysis to identify defects in source code.
