Beyond Runtime Enforcement: Shield Synthesis as Defensibility Analysis for Adversarial Networks

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Shielded reinforcement learning is typically presented as a runtime safety mechanism that compiles temporal-logic specifications into automata restricting an agent's actions. We argue this is the wrong product.

Contract-Based Compositional Shielding for Safe Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 14130v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safe coordination problems surface in multi-agent reinforcement learning when global safety cannot be enforced by any agent unilaterally: the admissibility of one agent's action may depend on the dynamics of other agents.

Chasing Moving Targets with Online Self-Play Reinforcement Learning for Safer Language Models

arXiv:2506. 07468v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conventional large language model (LLM) safety alignment relies on a reactive, disjoint loop: attackers exploit a static model, then defenders patch exposed vulnerabilities.

Shielding for Higher-Order Safety

arXiv:2608. 03662v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safety shields are runtime enforcement mechanisms that restrict the actions of a controller to guarantee safety.
