This paper outlines two approaches|based on counterexample-guided abstraction refinement (CEGAR) and counterexample-guided inductive synthesis (CEGIS), respectively to the automated synthesis of finite-state probabilistic models and programs. Our CEGAR approach iteratively partitions the design space starting from an abstraction of this space and refines this by a light-weight analysis of verification results. The CEGIS technique exploits critical subsystems as counterexamples to prune all programs behaving incorrectly on that input. We show the applicability of these synthesis techniques to sketching of probabilistic programs, controller synthesis of POMDPs, and software product lines.

Since regular expressions (abbrev. regexes) are difficult to understand and compose, automatically generating regexes has been an important research problem. This paper introduces TransRegex, for automatically constructing regexes from both natural l anguage descriptions and examples. To the best of our knowledge, TransRegex is the first to treat the NLP-and-example-based regex synthesis problem as the problem of NLP-based synthesis with regex repair. For this purpose, we present novel algorithms for both NLP-based synthesis and regex repair. We evaluate TransRegex with ten relevant state-of-the-art tools on three publicly available datasets. The evaluation results demonstrate that the accuracy of our TransRegex is 17.4%, 35.8% and 38.9% higher than that of NLP-based approaches on the three datasets, respectively. Furthermore, TransRegex can achieve higher accuracy than the state-of-the-art multi-modal techniques with 10% to 30% higher accuracy on all three datasets. The evaluation results also indicate TransRegex utilizing natural language and examples in a more effective way.
In the present paper, we construct quantum Markov chains (QMC) over the Comb graphs. As an application of this construction, it is proved the existence of the disordered phase for the Ising type models (within QMC scheme) over the Comb graphs. Moreov er, it is also established that the associated QMC has clustering property with respect to translations of the graph. We stress that this paper is the first one where a nontrivial example of QMC over non-regular graphs is given.
We extend the simply-typed guarded $lambda$-calculus with discrete probabilities and endow it with a program logic for reasoning about relational properties of guarded probabilistic computations. This provides a framework for programming and reasonin g about infinite stochastic processes like Markov chains. We demonstrate the logic sound by interpreting its judgements in the topos of trees and by using probabilistic couplings for the semantics of relational assertions over distributions on discrete types. The program logic is designed to support syntax-directed proofs in the style of relational refinement types, but retains the expressiveness of higher-order logic extended with discrete distributions, and the ability to reason relationally about expressions that have different types or syntactic structure. In addition, our proof system leverages a well-known theorem from the coupling literature to justify better proof rules for relational reasoning about probabilistic expressions. We illustrate these benefits with a broad range of examples that were beyond the scope of previous systems, including shift couplings and lump couplings between random walks.
In this paper, we consider the classical Ising model on the Cayley tree of order k and show the existence of the phase transition in the following sense: there exists two quantum Markov states which are not quasi-equivalent. It turns out that the fou nd critical temperature coincides with usual critical temperature.
Parametric Markov chains occur quite naturally in various applications: they can be used for a conservative analysis of probabilistic systems (no matter how the parameter is chosen, the system works to specification); they can be used to find optimal settings for a parameter; they can be used to visualise the influence of system parameters; and they can be used to make it easy to adjust the analysis for the case that parameters change. Unfortunately, these advancements come at a cost: parametric model checking is---or rather was---often slow. To make the analysis of parametric Markov models scale, we need three ingredients: clever algorithms, the right data structure, and good engineering. Clever algorithms are often the main (or sole) selling point; and we face the trouble that this paper focuses on -- the latter ingredients to efficient model checking. Consequently, our easiest claim to fame is in the speed-up we have often realised when comparing to the state of the art.
