Neurosymbolic AI audits medical device software requirements for safety

Researchers have developed VERIMED, a novel pipeline that uses large language models combined with an SMT solver to audit natural-language software requirements, particularly for safety-critical applications like medical devices. This neurosymbolic approach translates requirements into formal logic, identifies ambiguity through variations in formalization, and detects inconsistencies or safety violations using solver queries. Experiments on open-source medical device requirements demonstrated that VERIMED effectively reduces ambiguity and significantly improves the accuracy of verified specifications. AI

    Neurosymbolic Auditing of Natural-Language Software Requirements

    Natural-language software requirements are often ambiguous, inconsistent, and underspecified; in safety-critical domains, these defects propagate into formal models that verify the wrong specification and into implementations that ship unsafe behavior. We show that large language…
