LLMs automate sound abstract interpreters for program verification

Researchers have developed SAIL, a framework that uses large language models to automatically generate sound abstract interpreters for program verification. This approach automates a previously manual and tedious process, synthesizing abstract transformers for complex non-linear operators. Evaluations show SAIL can match and even surpass the performance of human-designed transformers, producing sound and precise results for neural network verification. AI

IMPACT Automates complex program verification tasks, potentially improving software reliability and security.

    SAIL: Sound Abstract Interpreters with LLMs

    arXiv:2511.13663v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How to construct globally sound abstract interpreters to safely approximate program behaviors remains a bottleneck in abstract interpretation. In this paper, we show the potential of using state-of-the-art LLMs to automate…
