Neural abstractions

A Abate, A Edwards… - Advances in Neural …, 2022 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We present a novel method for the safety verification of nonlinear dynamical models that
uses neural networks to represent abstractions of their dynamics. Neural networks have …

The VMT-LIB language and tools

A Cimatti, A Griggio, S Tonetta - arXiv preprint arXiv:2109.12821, 2021 - arxiv.org
We present VMT-LIB, a language for the representation of verification problems of linear-
time temporal properties on infinite-state symbolic transition systems. VMT-LIB is an …

On the Trade-Off Between Efficiency and Precision of Neural Abstraction

A Edwards, M Giacobbe, A Abate - International Conference on …, 2023 - Springer
Neural abstractions have been recently introduced as formal approximations of complex,
nonlinear dynamical models. They comprise a neural ODE and a certified upper bound on …

Minimization of Dynamical Systems over Monoids

G Argyris, AL Lafuente, AL Robayo… - 2023 38th Annual …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Quantitative notions of bisimulation are well-known tools for the minimization of dynamical
models such as Markov chains and ordinary differential equations (ODEs). In forward …

Formal verification of dynamical models via neural synthesis

A Edwards - 2024 - ora.ox.ac.uk
Dynamical models are a mathematical tool for representing, understanding, and analysing
complex systems that are ubiquitous across science and engineering. Complexity and …

Abstract simulation of reaction networks via boolean networks

J Niehren, A Vaginay, C Versari - International Conference on …, 2022 - Springer
We propose to simulate chemical reaction networks with the deterministic semantics
abstractly, without any precise knowledge on the initial concentrations. For this, the …

[PDF][PDF] Automatic Computation of Barrier Certificates

FM Tchouli, R Seassau - 2023 - remyjck.github.io
An important topic of research in formal verification is the safety verification of hybrid
systems. Hybrid systems include both discrete and continuous dynamics, and are used to …

[PDF][PDF] Abstraction-Based Analysis of Continuous-Time Models in Systems Biology

J Dražanová - is.muni.cz
This thesis deals with several abstractions that create a discrete transition system from an
input continuous-time system with dynamics given by a system of autonomous ODE that are …
