Generalizing Worklist-based Inference for Dependent Types
Alvin
Abstract
The worklist style inference algorithm is marvelous legacy left by no other than the great Dr. Jimmy Zhao, which handles the problem of type inference for a system with higher-ranked polymorphism efficiently and elegantly. In this seminar we are going to explore what would happen when we attempt to generalize the algorithm to a dependently-typed system. And see if the method still holds its former glory.
