A key question that arises in rigorous analysis of cyberphysical systems under attack involves establishing whether or not the attacked system deviates significantly from the ideal allowed behavior. This is the problem of deciding whether…

We describe a set of lower-level abstractions to improve performance on modern large scale heterogeneous systems. These provide portable access to system- and hardware-dependent features, automatically apply dynamic optimizations at run…

Non-linear state estimation and some related topics, like parametric estimation, fault diagnosis, and perturbation attenuation, are tackled here via a new methodology in numerical differentiation. The corresponding basic system theoretic…

Neural abstractions have been recently introduced as formal approximations of complex, nonlinear dynamical models. They comprise a neural ODE and a certified upper bound on the error between the abstract neural network and the concrete…

The study of controlled hybrid systems requires practical tools for approximation and comparison of system behaviors. Existing approaches to these problems impose undue restrictions on the system's continuous and discrete dynamics.…

With new advances in machine learning and in particular powerful learning libraries, we illustrate some of the new possibilities they enable in terms of nonlinear system identification. For a large class of hybrid systems, we explain how…

Abstraction is a key verification technique to improve scalability. However, its use for neural networks is so far extremely limited. Previous approaches for abstracting classification networks replace several neurons with one of them that…

We present a novel method for the safety verification of nonlinear dynamical models that uses neural networks to represent abstractions of their dynamics. Neural networks have extensively been used before as approximators; in this work, we…

In recent years, the notion of local robustness (or robustness for short) has emerged as a desirable property of deep neural networks. Intuitively, robustness means that small perturbations to an input do not cause the network to perform…

Deductive verification of concurrent programs under weak memory has thus far been limited to simple programs over a monolithic state space. For scalability, we also require modular techniques with verifiable library abstractions. This paper…

Models involving hybrid systems are versatile in their application but difficult to optimize efficiently due to their combinatorial nature. This work presents a method to cope with hybrid optimal control problems which, in contrast to…

Probabilistic behavior is omnipresent in computer controlled systems, in particular, so-called safety-critical hybrid systems, because of various reasons, like uncertain environments, or fundamental properties of nature. In this paper, we…

We present a new technique for verifying nonlinear and hybrid models with inputs. We observe that once an input signal is fixed, the sensitivity analysis of the model can be computed much more precisely. Based on this result, we propose a…

Robust statistical estimators offer resilience against outliers but are often computationally challenging, particularly in high-dimensional sparse settings. Modern optimization techniques are utilized for robust sparse association…

Numerical nonlinear algebra is applied to maximum likelihood estimation for Gaussian models defined by linear constraints on the covariance matrix. We examine the generic case as well as special models (e.g. Toeplitz, sparse, trees) that…

In this paper, we design a theoretical framework allowing to apply model predictive control on hybrid systems. For this, we develop a theory of approximate dynamic programming by leveraging the concept of alternating simulation. We show how…

This paper studies the construction of dynamic symbolic abstractions for nonlinear control systems via dynamic quantization. Since computational complexity is a fundamental problem in the use of discrete abstractions, a dynamic quantizer…
