Researchers have developed a new neural network architecture that simplifies formal verification by representing mixed-monotone functions as the difference between two monotone subnetworks. This approach reduces the complex computation of output enclosures to two simple forward passes, allowing the enclosure size to be directly minimized during training. The method achieves enclosures close to theoretical lower bounds and is significantly faster than existing methods like CROWN and alpha-CROWN, while also offering competitive tightness on deep networks.
