Probabilistic Accuracy Bounds for Perforated Programs: A New Foundation for Program Analysis and Transformation

Traditional program transformations operate under the onerous constraint that they must preserve the exact behavior of the transformed program. But many programs are designed to produce approximate results. Lossy video encoders, for example, are designed to give up perfect fidelity in return for fas...
