Cyber-physical systems are often safety-critical in that violations of safety properties may lead to catastrophes. We propose a method to enforce the safety of systems with real-valued signals by synthesizing a runtime enforcer called the…
This paper presents a systematic method for synthesizing a Control Barrier Function (CBF) that encodes predictive information into a CBF. Unlike other methods, the synthesized CBF can account for changes and time-variations in the…
Given a multithreaded program written assuming a friendly, non-preemptive scheduler, the goal of synchronization synthesis is to automatically insert synchronization primitives to ensure that the modified program behaves correctly, even…
DNA-based storage offers unprecedented density and durability, but its scalability is fundamentally limited by the efficiency of parallel strand synthesis. Existing methods either allow unconstrained nucleotide additions to individual…
We study the theoretical problem of synthesizing multiple DNA strands under spatial constraints, motivated by large-scale DNA synthesis technologies. In this setting, strands are arranged in an array and synthesized according to a fixed…
We consider the synthesis problem of Compressed Sensing - given s and an MXn matrix A, extract from it an mXn submatrix A', certified to be s-good, with m as small as possible. Starting from the verifiable sufficient conditions of…
3D anomaly detection (AD) is prominent but difficult due to lacking a unified theoretical foundation for preprocessing design. We establish the Fence Theorem, formalizing preprocessing as a dual-objective semantic isolator: (1) mitigating…
Software-defined networking (SDN) is revolutionizing the networking industry, but current SDN programming platforms do not provide automated mechanisms for updating global configurations on the fly. Implementing updates by hand is…
This work presents an optimization method for the synthesis of finite state machines. The focus is on the reduction in the on-chip area and the cost of the circuit. A list of finite state machines from MCNC91 benchmark circuits have been…
Control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) and control barrier functions (CBFs) are widely used tools for synthesizing controllers subject to stability and safety constraints. Paired with online optimization, they provide stabilizing control actions…
For low-level computer vision and image processing ML tasks, training on large datasets is critical for generalization. However, the standard practice of relying on real-world images primarily from the Internet comes with image quality,…
This paper presents Task 7 at the DCASE 2024 Challenge: sound scene synthesis. Recent advances in sound synthesis and generative models have enabled the creation of realistic and diverse audio content. We introduce a standardized evaluation…
Safety is a fundamental requirement of control systems. Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) are proposed to ensure the safety of the control system by constructing safety filters or synthesizing control inputs. However, the safety guarantee…
We present a new program synthesis approach that combines an encoder-decoder based synthesis architecture with a differentiable program fixer. Our approach is inspired from the fact that human developers seldom get their program correct on…
In this paper, we study a safe control design for dynamical systems in the presence of uncertainty in a dynamical environment. The worst-case error approach is considered to formulate robust Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) in an…
The advent of sensor networks presents untapped opportunities for synthesis. We examine the problem of synthesis of behavioral specifications into networks of programmable sensor blocks. The particular behavioral specification we consider…
Although quantum computers have the potential to efficiently solve certain problems considered difficult by known classical approaches, the design of a quantum circuit remains computationally difficult. It is known that the optimal gate…
Agile hardware development requires fast and accurate circuit quality evaluation from early design stages. Existing work of high-level synthesis (HLS) performance prediction usually needs extensive feature engineering after the synthesis…
Work Stealing has been a very successful algorithm for scheduling parallel computations, and is known to achieve high performances even for computations exhibiting fine-grained parallelism. We present a variant of \ws\ that provably avoids…
Concurrent programs are notoriously hard to write correctly, as scheduling nondeterminism introduces subtle errors that are both hard to detect and to reproduce. The most common concurrency errors are (data) races, which occur when…
