Researchers have developed a new framework for synthesizing and verifying Deterministic Register Automata (DRAs) over data sequences. These DRAs are capable of expressing properties that depend on value comparisons across different positions in a sequence, which traditional finite automata cannot handle. The framework includes a local-search synthesis procedure and an exact robustness checker, implemented in a tool called RAExc. This approach has been applied to create interpretable DRA surrogates for neural sequence classifiers, demonstrating high accuracy and verified robustness on benchmark languages and the sequentialized MNIST dataset.
