We provide a review of recent work on formal methods for autonomous driving. Formal
methods have been traditionally used to specify and verify the behavior of computer …

We develop a set of contracts for autonomous control software that ensures that if all traffic
participants follow the contracts, the overall traffic system will be collision-free. We express …

Autonomous vehicles must comply with traffic rules. However, most motion planners do not
explicitly consider all relevant traffic rules. Once traffic rule violations of an initially-planned …

We introduce a goal-aware extension of responsibility-sensitive safety (RSS), a recent
methodology for rule-based safety guarantee for automated driving systems (ADS). Making …

We present a reusable formally verified safety net that provides end-to-end safety and
liveness guarantees for two-dimensional waypoint-following of Dubins-type ground robots …

The paper proposes a method for the correct by design coordination of autonomous driving
systems (ADS). It builds on previous results on collision avoidance policies and the …

To realize a market entry of autonomous vehicles in the foreseeable future, the behavior
planning system will need to abide by the same rules that humans follow. Product liability …

Safety architectures play a crucial role in the safety assurance of automated driving vehicles
(ADVs). They can be used as safety envelopes of black-box ADV controllers, and for …

Safety guarantees and regulatory approval for autonomous vehicles remain an ongoing
challenge. In particular, software that is frequently adapted or contains complex, non …

Ensuring the safety of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is the key requisite for their acceptance in
society. This complexity is the core challenge in formally proving their safety conditions with …
