New CLAD abstract domain improves neural network verification accuracy

Researchers have developed a new abstract domain called CLAD (Constrained Lagrangian Abstract Domain) for neural network verification. CLAD is designed to handle input regions defined by a combination of convex constraints, which are more representative of real-world scenarios than the simple Lp-norm balls typically used. By relaxing constraints and using a projected primal-dual method, CLAD aims to provide tighter over-approximations, leading to more accurate verification results and fewer spurious counterexamples. Evaluations show CLAD performs comparably to existing methods on standard properties and verifies significantly more instances on constrained properties. AI

IMPACT Enhances the accuracy and efficiency of verifying neural network properties, potentially leading to more reliable AI systems.

    CLAD: Constrained Abstract Domain for Neural Network Verification

    arXiv:2609.34628v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Neural network verification (NNV) formally verifies that a network satisfies a specified property for all inputs within a defined region. Modern NNV tools employ abstract domains to compute a sound over-approximation of th…
