New SLiR method enhances neural network verification with broader applicability

Researchers have developed a new method called SLiR (Shifting-based Linear Relaxations) for verifying the behavior of neural networks. This approach is broadly applicable to various activation functions, requiring only a Lipschitz constant or critical points, unlike previous methods that needed hand-crafted relaxations. SLiR parameterizes relaxations by their slope and uses a shifting procedure to ensure sound upper and lower bounds, enabling efficient optimization. Experiments demonstrate that SLiR produces tighter relaxations and allows for the verification of significantly more properties compared to existing state-of-the-art techniques. AI

IMPACT Enables more robust verification of neural network behavior, potentially increasing trust in AI systems for critical applications.

    Shifting-based Optimizable Linear Relaxations for General Activation Functions

    The use of neural networks (NNs) is rapidly increasing, including in safety- and security-critical domains. To provide formal guarantees about NN behavior, many verification methods rely on optimizable linear relaxations of activation functions. However, existing techniques depen…
