Deep Learning architectures, and in particular Transformers, are conventionally viewed as a composition of layers. These layers are actually often obtained as the sum of two contributions: a residual path that copies the input and the…

This paper deals with the data-driven synthesis of dissipative linear systems in discrete time. We collect finitely many noisy data samples with which we synthesise a controller that makes all systems that explain the data dissipative with…

Loop scopes have been shown to be a helpful tool in creating sound loop invariant rules which do not require program transformation of the loop body. Here we extend this idea from while-loops to for-loops and also present sound loop…

A simple linear loop is a simple while loop with linear assignments and linear loop guards. If a simple linear loop has only two program variables, we give a complete algorithm for computing the set of all the inputs on which the loop does…
