We introduce a new logic named Quantitative Confidence Logic (QCL) that quantifies the level of confidence one has in the conclusion of a proof. By translating a fault tree representing a systems architecture to a proof, we show how to use QCL to give a solution to the test resource allocation problem that takes the given architecture into account. We implemented a tool called Astrahl and compared our results to other testing resource allocation strategies.

Abstract reasoning, i.e., inferring complicated patterns from given observations, is a central building block of artificial general intelligence. While humans find the answer by either eliminating wrong candidates or first constructing the answer, pr
ior deep neural network (DNN)-based methods focus on the former discriminative approach. This paper aims to design a framework for the latter approach and bridge the gap between artificial and human intelligence. To this end, we propose logic-guided generation (LoGe), a novel generative DNN framework that reduces abstract reasoning as an optimization problem in propositional logic. LoGe is composed of three steps: extract propositional variables from images, reason the answer variables with a logic layer, and reconstruct the answer image from the variables. We demonstrate that LoGe outperforms the black box DNN frameworks for generative abstract reasoning under the RAVEN benchmark, i.e., reconstructing answers based on capturing correct rules of various attributes from observations.
Crowdsourced testing is increasingly dominant in mobile application (app) testing, but it is a great burden for app developers to inspect the incredible number of test reports. Many researches have been proposed to deal with test reports based only o
n texts or additionally simple image features. However, in mobile app testing, texts contained in test reports are condensed and the information is inadequate. Many screenshots are included as complements that contain much richer information beyond texts. This trend motivates us to prioritize crowdsourced test reports based on a deep screenshot understanding. In this paper, we present a novel crowdsourced test report prioritization approach, namely DeepPrior. We first represent the crowdsourced test reports with a novelly introduced feature, namely DeepFeature, that includes all the widgets along with their texts, coordinates, types, and even intents based on the deep analysis of the app screenshots, and the textual descriptions in the crowdsourced test reports. DeepFeature includes the Bug Feature, which directly describes the bugs, and the Context Feature, which depicts the thorough context of the bug. The similarity of the DeepFeature is used to represent the test reports similarity and prioritize the crowdsourced test reports. We formally define the similarity as DeepSimilarity. We also conduct an empirical experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed technique with a large dataset group. The results show that DeepPrior is promising, and it outperforms the state-of-the-art approach with less than half the overhead.
This work proposes a new resource allocation optimization framework for cellular networks using fog or neighborhood-based optimization rather than fully centralized or fully decentralized methods. In neighborhood-based optimization resources are allo
cated within virtual cells encompassing several base-stations and the users within their coverage area. As the number of base-stations within a virtual cell increases, the framework reverts to centralized optimization, and as this number decreases it reverts to decentralized optimization. We address two tasks that must be carried out in the fog optimization framework: forming the virtual cells and allocating the communication resources in each virtual cell effectively. We propose hierarchical clustering for the formation of the virtual cells given a particular number of such cells. Once the virtual cells are formed, we consider several optimization methods to solve the NP-hard joint channel access and power allocation problem within each virtual cell in order to maximize the sum rate of the entire system. We present numerical results for the system sum rate of each scheme under hierarchical clustering. Our results indicate that proper design of the fog optimization results in little degradation relative to centralized optimization even for a relatively large number of virtual cells. However, improper design leads to a significant decrease in sum rate relative to centralized optimization.
Motivated by the needs of resource constrained dialog policy learning, we introduce dialog policy via differentiable inductive logic (DILOG). We explore the tasks of one-shot learning and zero-shot domain transfer with DILOG on SimDial and MultiWoZ.
Using a single representative dialog from the restaurant domain, we train DILOG on the SimDial dataset and obtain 99+% in-domain test accuracy. We also show that the trained DILOG zero-shot transfers to all other domains with 99+% accuracy, proving the suitability of DILOG to slot-filling dialogs. We further extend our study to the MultiWoZ dataset achieving 90+% inform and success metrics. We also observe that these metrics are not capturing some of the shortcomings of DILOG in terms of false positives, prompting us to measure an auxiliary Action F1 score. We show that DILOG is 100x more data efficient than state-of-the-art neural approaches on MultiWoZ while achieving similar performance metrics. We conclude with a discussion on the strengths and weaknesses of DILOG.
Software model checking is a verification technique which is widely used for checking temporal properties of software systems. Even though it is a property verification technique, its common usage in practice is in bug finding, that is, finding viola
tions of temporal properties. Motivated by this observation and leveraging the recent progress in fuzzing, we build a greybox fuzzing framework to find violations of Linear-time Temporal Logic (LTL) properties. Our framework takes as input a sequential program written in C/C++, and an LTL property. It finds violations, or counterexample traces, of the LTL property in stateful software systems; however, it does not achieve verification. Our work substantially extends directed greybox fuzzing to witness arbitrarily complex event orderings. We note that existing directed greybox fuzzing approaches are limited to witnessing reaching a location or witnessing simple event orderings like use-after-free. At the same time, compared to model checkers, our approach finds the counterexamples faster, thereby finding more counterexamples within a given time budget. Our LTL-Fuzzer tool, built on top of the AFL fuzzer, is shown to be effective in detecting bugs in well-known protocol implementations, such as OpenSSL and Telnet. We use LTL-Fuzzer to reproduce known vulnerabilities (CVEs), to find 15 zero-day bugs by checking properties extracted from RFCs (for which 10 CVEs have been assigned), and to find violations of both safety as well as liveness properties in real-world protocol implementations. Our work represents a practical advance over software model checkers -- while simultaneously representing a conceptual advance over existing greybox fuzzers. Our work thus provides a starting point for understanding the unexplored synergies between software model checking and greybox fuzzing.
