This paper formulates and studies the concepts of approximate (alternating) bisimulation relations characterizing equivalence relations between interconnected systems and their abstractions. These equivalence relations guarantee that the…
Many constraints restricting the result of some computations over an integer sequence can be compactly represented by register automata. We improve the propagation of the conjunction of such constraints on the same sequence by synthesising…
Compositional energy-based models can generalize to larger combinatorial reasoning problems by reusing a learned factor energy across many local constraints. In our paper, we show that a key bottleneck in compositional reasoning is not…
Symmetry reduction is a well-known approach for alleviating the state explosion problem in model checking. Automatically identifying symmetries in concurrent systems, however, is computationally expensive. We propose a symbolic framework…

An emerging branch of control theory specialises in certificate learning, concerning the specification of a desired (possibly complex) system behaviour for an autonomous or control model, which is then analytically verified by means of a…
This work investigates whether time series of natural phenomena can be understood as being generated by sequences of latent states which are ordered in systematic and regular ways. We focus on clinical time series and ask whether clinical…
We develop a new method for generating prediction sets that combines the flexibility of conformal methods with an estimate of the conditional distribution $P_{Y \mid X}$. Existing methods, such as conformalized quantile regression and…
A method for certifying exact input trackability for constrained discrete time linear systems is introduced in this paper. A signal is assumed to be drawn from a reference set and the system must track this signal with a linear combination…
This paper studies the parameter tuning problem of positive linear systems for optimizing their stability properties. We specifically show that, under certain regularity assumptions on the parametrization, the problem of finding the…
Automated synthesis of reactive systems from specifications has been a topic of research for decades. Recently, a variety of approaches have been proposed to extend synthesis of reactive systems from proposi- tional specifications towards…
Simulation-based compositional abstraction effectively mitigates state space explosion in model checking, particularly for timed systems. However, existing approaches do not support broadcast synchronization, an important mechanism for…
We propose finitely convergent methods for solving convex feasibility problems defined over a possibly infinite pool of constraints. Following other works in this area, we assume that the interior of the solution set is nonempty and that…
We introduce a general methodology for quantitative model checking and control synthesis with supermartingale certificates. We show that every specification that is invariant to time shifts admits a stochastic invariant that bounds its…
