Combined Global and Local Search for the Falsification of Hybrid Systems
In this paper we solve the problem of finding a trajectory that shows that a
given hybrid dynamical system with deterministic evolution leaves a given set
of states considered to be safe. The algorithm combines local with global
search for achieving both efficiency and global convergence. In local search,
it exploits derivatives for efficient computation. Unlike other methods for
falsification of hybrid systems with deterministic evolution, we do not
restrict our search to trajectories of a certain bounded length but search for
error trajectories of arbitrary length
