Disruptive Innovations and Disruptive Assurance: Assuring Machine Learning and Autonomy
Autonomous and machine learning-based systems are disruptive innovations and thus require a corresponding disruptive assurance strategy. We offer an overview of a framework based on claims, arguments, and evidence aimed at addressing these systems and use it to identify specific gaps, challenges, and potential solutions
Output Reachable Set Estimation and Verification for Multi-Layer Neural Networks
In this paper, the output reachable estimation and safety verification
problems for multi-layer perceptron neural networks are addressed. First, a
conception called maximum sensitivity in introduced and, for a class of
multi-layer perceptrons whose activation functions are monotonic functions, the
maximum sensitivity can be computed via solving convex optimization problems.
Then, using a simulation-based method, the output reachable set estimation
problem for neural networks is formulated into a chain of optimization
problems. Finally, an automated safety verification is developed based on the
output reachable set estimation result. An application to the safety
verification for a robotic arm model with two joints is presented to show the
effectiveness of proposed approaches.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures, to appear in TNNL
