Uncertainty measurement for complex event prediction in safety-critical systems

The paper presents a machine‑learning approach (ML_CP) that automatically learns patterns and rules for complex event prediction, reducing reliance on manual rule creation. It incorporates sensitivity analysis to assess how output varies with each input and uses conformal prediction to generate uncertainty‑aware prediction intervals. Experiments on binary, multi‑level classification, and regression tasks show promising results for safety‑critical embedded systems.

Correcting Learning-based Perception for Safety

The paper presents a two-step method to correct machine‑learning based perception for safety in autonomous systems. First, it uses offline computation to characterize uncertainties from the ML module via preimages of perception contracts. Then, at runtime, a risk heuristic selects specific states from these uncertain estimates to guide control decisions, reducing safety violations in adaptive cruise control scenarios while adding minimal delay.

Uncertainty-Aware Predictive Safety Filters for Probabilistic Neural Network Dynamics

arXiv:2604. 26836v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Predictive safety filters (PSFs) leverage model predictive control to enforce constraint satisfaction during deep reinforcement learning (RL) exploration, yet their reliance on first-principles models or Gaussian processes limits scalability and broader applicability.

Learning to Predict, Discover, and Reason in High-Cardinality Event Sequences

The article discusses a new approach to diagnosing vehicle faults by treating diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as a high‑cardinality language. It proposes Transformer‑based models for predicting event sequences, scalable causal discovery frameworks, and a multi‑agent system that automatically generates Boolean error‑pattern rules. These methods aim to replace manual, error‑prone grouping of DTCs with automated, scalable fault diagnostics.

Learning to Predict, Discover, and Reason in High-Dimensional Event Sequences

The paper proposes a new framework for automated fault diagnostics in modern vehicles by treating diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as a high‑dimensional language. It introduces Transformer‑based models for predictive maintenance, scalable causal discovery methods, and a multi‑agent system that automatically generates Boolean error‑pattern rules. The approach aims to replace costly manual grouping of DTCs with scalable, data‑driven techniques.
