Autonomous cyber-physical systems (CPS) rely on the correct operation of numerous components, with state-of-the-art methods relying on machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) components in various stages of sensing and control. This paper develops methods for estimating the reachable set and verifying safety properties of dynamical systems under control of neural network-based controllers that may be implemented in embedded software. The neural network controllers we consider are feedforward neural networks called multilayer perceptrons (MLP) with general activation functions. As such feedforward networks are memoryless, they may be abstractly represented as mathematical functions, and the reachability analysis of the network amounts to range (image) estimation of this function provided a set of inputs. By discretizing the input set of the MLP into a finite number of hyper-rectangular cells, our approach develops a linear programming (LP) based algorithm for over-approximating the output set of the MLP with its input set as a union of hyper-rectangular cells. Combining the over-approximation for the output set of an MLP based controller and reachable set computation routines for ordinary difference/differential equation (ODE) models, an algorithm is developed to estimate the reachable set of the closed-loop system. Finally, safety verification for neural network control systems can be performed by checking the existence of intersections between the estimated reachable set and unsafe regions. The approach is implemented in a computational software prototype and evaluated on numerical examples.

In this work, the reachable set estimation and safety verification problems for a class of piecewise linear systems equipped with neural network controllers are addressed. The neural network is considered to consist of Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) ac
tivation functions. A layer-by-layer approach is developed for the output reachable set computation of ReLU neural networks. The computation is formulated in the form of a set of manipulations for a union of polytopes. Based on the output reachable set for neural network controllers, the output reachable set for a piecewise linear feedback control system can be estimated iteratively for a given finite-time interval. With the estimated output reachable set, the safety verification for piecewise linear systems with neural network controllers can be performed by checking the existence of intersections of unsafe regions and output reach set. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of our approach.
Deep learning methods can be used to produce control policies, but certifying their safety is challenging. The resulting networks are nonlinear and often very large. In response to this challenge, we present OVERT: a sound algorithm for safety verifi
cation of nonlinear discrete-time closed loop dynamical systems with neural network control policies. The novelty of OVERT lies in combining ideas from the classical formal methods literature with ideas from the newer neural network verification literature. The central concept of OVERT is to abstract nonlinear functions with a set of optimally tight piecewise linear bounds. Such piecewise linear bounds are designed for seamless integration into ReLU neural network verification tools. OVERT can be used to prove bounded-time safety properties by either computing reachable sets or solving feasibility queries directly. We demonstrate various examples of safety verification for several classical benchmark examples. OVERT compares favorably to existing methods both in computation time and in tightness of the reachable set.
A classic reachability problem for safety of dynamic systems is to compute the set of initial states from which the state trajectory is guaranteed to stay inside a given constraint set over a given time horizon. In this paper, we leverage existing th
eory of reachability analysis and risk measures to devise a risk-sensitive reachability approach for safety of stochastic dynamic systems under non-adversarial disturbances over a finite time horizon. Specifically, we first introduce the notion of a risk-sensitive safe set as a set of initial states from which the risk of large constraint violations can be reduced to a required level via a control policy, where risk is quantified using the Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) measure. Second, we show how the computation of a risk-sensitive safe set can be reduced to the solution to a Markov Decision Process (MDP), where cost is assessed according to CVaR. Third, leveraging this reduction, we devise a tractable algorithm to approximate a risk-sensitive safe set, and provide theoretical arguments about its correctness. Finally, we present a realistic example inspired from stormwater catchment design to demonstrate the utility of risk-sensitive reachability analysis. In particular, our approach allows a practitioner to tune the level of risk sensitivity from worst-case (which is typical for Hamilton-Jacobi reachability analysis) to risk-neutral (which is the case for stochastic reachability analysis).
Reachability analysis aims at identifying states reachable by a system within a given time horizon. This task is known to be computationally expensive for linear hybrid systems. Reachability analysis works by iteratively applying continuous and discr
ete post operators to compute states reachable according to continuous and discrete dynamics, respectively. In this paper, we enhance both of these operators and make sure that most of the involved computations are performed in low-dimensional state space. In particular, we improve the continuous-post operator by performing computations in high-dimensional state space only for time intervals relevant for the subsequent application of the discrete-post operator. Furthermore, the new discrete-post operator performs low-dimensional computations by leveraging the structure of the guard and assignment of a considered transition. We illustrate the potential of our approach on a number of challenging benchmarks.
In this paper we propose an improvement for flowpipe-construction-based reachability analysis techniques for hybrid systems. Such methods apply iterative successor computations to pave the reachable region of the state space by state sets in an over-
approximative manner. As the computational costs steeply increase with the dimension, in this work we analyse the possibilities for improving scalability by dividing the search space in sub-spaces and execute reachability computations in the sub-spaces instead of the global space. We formalise such an algorithm and provide experimental evaluations to compare the efficiency as well as the precision of our sub-space search to the original search in the global space.
