We introduce in this paper a new CP-based approach to support errors location in a program for which a counter-example is available, i.e. an instantiation of the input variables that violates the post-condition. To provide helpful…

Fault localization is an imperative method in fault tolerance in a distributed environment that designs a blueprint for continuing the ongoing process even when one or many modules are non-functional. Visualizing a distributed environment…

Subsequence matching has appeared to be an ideal approach for solving many problems related to the fields of data mining and similarity retrieval. It has been shown that almost any data class (audio, image, biometrics, signals) is or can be…

Split Federated Learning (SFL) enables privacy-preserving collaborative training by partitioning models between clients and a server. However, under non-IID data distributions, SFL often suffers from biased optimization and unstable…

Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) is a framework that utilizes both labeled and unlabeled data to enhance model performance. Conventional SSL methods operate under the assumption that labeled and unlabeled data share the same label space.…

This paper proposes using the Linux kernel ftrace framework, particularly the function graph tracer, to generate informative system level data for machine learning (ML) applications. Experiments on a real world encryption detection task…

This paper presents language techniques for applying memoization selectively. The techniques provide programmer control over equality, space usage, and identification of precise dependences so that memoization can be applied according to…

This paper describes our approach to automated program repair. We combine various techniques from the literature to achieve this. Our experiments show that our approach performs better than other techniques on standard benchmarks. However,…

Software fault prediction (SFP) is a critical task in software engineering, enabling early identification of faults in modules to improve software quality and reduce maintenance costs. This research investigates the combined effects of…

Balancing sensitivity to new tasks and stability for retaining past knowledge is crucial in continual learning (CL). Recently, sharpness-aware minimization has proven effective in transfer learning and has also been adopted in continual…

Operating in the real-world often requires agents to learn about a complex environment and apply this understanding to achieve a breadth of goals. This problem, known as goal-conditioned reinforcement learning (GCRL), becomes especially…

Many constraint satisfaction and optimisation problems can be solved effectively by encoding them as instances of the Boolean Satisfiability problem (SAT). However, even the simplest types of constraints have many encodings in the…

Mining specifications from execution traces presents an automated way of capturing characteristic system behaviors. However, existing approaches are largely restricted to Boolean abstractions of events, limiting their ability to express…

In this work, we propose Salient Sparse Federated Learning (SSFL), a streamlined approach for sparse federated learning with efficient communication. SSFL identifies a sparse subnetwork prior to training, leveraging parameter saliency…

The software inevitably encounters the crash, which will take developers a large amount of effort to find the fault causing the crash (short for crashing fault). Developing automatic methods to identify the residence of the crashing fault…

In many operational applications, it is necessary to routinely find, within a very limited time window, provably good solutions to challenging mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problems. An example is the Security-Constrained Unit…

Cloud computing systems fail in complex and unexpected ways due to unexpected combinations of events and interactions between hardware and software components. Fault injection is an effective means to bring out these failures in a…

Sensor technology developments provide a basis for effective fault diagnosis in manufacturing systems. However, the limited number of sensors due to physical constraints or undue costs hinders the accurate diagnosis in the actual process.…

Contract conformance is hard to determine statically, prior to the deployment of large pieces of software. A scalable alternative is to monitor for contract violations post-deployment: once a violation is detected, the trace characterising…

Safety-critical infrastructures must operate safely and reliably. Fault tree analysis is a widespread method used to assess risks in these systems: fault trees (FTs) are required - among others - by the Federal Aviation Authority, the…
