Complex systems are ubiquitous in the real world and tend to have complicated and poorly understood dynamics. For their control issues, the challenge is to guarantee accuracy, robustness, and generalization in such bloated and troubled…

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are abundant in safety-critical domains such as healthcare, avionics, and autonomous vehicles. Formal verification of their operational safety is, therefore, of utmost importance. In this paper, we address the…

Verifying multi-threaded programs is becoming more and more important, because of the strong trend to increase the number of processing units per CPU socket. We introduce a new configurable program analysis for verifying multi-threaded…

In the context of Markov decision processes running in continuous time, one of the most intriguing challenges is the efficient approximation of finite horizon reachability objectives. A multitude of sophisticated model checking algorithms…

Cyber-physical systems combine software and physical components. Specification-driven trace-checking tools for CPS usually provide users with a specification language to express the requirements of interest, and an automatic procedure to…

Formal verification techniques are widely used for detecting design flaws in software systems. Formal verification can be done by transforming an already implemented source code to a formal model and attempting to prove certain properties…

In this paper we present an efficient approach to implementing model checking in the Higher Order Logic (HOL) of Isabelle. This is a non-trivial task since model checking is restricted to finite state sets. By restricting our scope to…

Real-time end-to-end task scheduling in networked control systems (NCSs) requires the joint consideration of both network and computing resources to guarantee the desired quality of service (QoS). This paper introduces a new model for…

This paper proposes a novel higher-order multi-scale (HOMS) computational method, which is highly targeted for efficient, high-accuracy and low-computational-cost simulation of hygro-thermo-mechanical (H-T-M) coupling problems in…

Automatic feature engineering is an effective approach for improving predictive performance in tabular learning. However, expand-and-reduce methods, such as OpenFE, become increasingly computationally expensive as the input dimensionality…

We present a supervised binary encoding scheme for image retrieval that learns projections by taking into account similarity between classes obtained from output embeddings. Our motivation is that binary hash codes learned in this way…

Due to major breakthroughs in software and engineering technologies, embedded systems are increasingly being utilized in areas ranging from aerospace and next-generation transportation systems, to smart grid and smart cities, to health care…

With the rapid proliferation of streaming services, network load exhibits highly time-varying and bursty behavior, posing serious challenges for maintaining Quality of Service (QoS) in Crowdsourced Cloud-Edge Platforms (CCPs). While CCPs…

The Combined Algorithm Selection and Hyperparameter Optimization (CASH) problem is fundamental in Automated Machine Learning (AutoML). Inspired by the success of ensemble learning, recent AutoML systems construct post-hoc ensembles for…

Recognition of occluded objects in unseen and unstructured indoor environments is a challenging problem for mobile robots. To address this challenge, we propose a new descriptor, TOPS, for point clouds generated from depth images and an…

Reliable probabilities are critical in high-risk applications, yet common calibration criteria (confidence, class-wise) are only necessary for full distributional calibration, and post-hoc methods often lack distribution-free guarantees. We…

This paper tackles the problem of making complex resource-constrained cyber-physical systems (CPS) resilient to sensor anomalies. In particular, we present a framework for checkpointing and roll-forward recovery of state-estimates in…

The arising application of neural networks (NN) in robotic systems has driven the development of safety verification methods for neural network dynamical systems (NNDS). Recursive techniques for reachability analysis of dynamical systems in…

We propose a unified framework to enhance the power of online multiple hypothesis testing procedures based on $e$-values. While $e$-value-based methods offer robust online False Discovery Rate (FDR) control under minimal assumptions, they…

The proof of a program property can be reduced to the proof of satisfiability of a set of constrained Horn clauses (CHCs) which can be automatically generated from the program and the property. In this paper we have conducted a case study…
