Verifying and synthesising multi-agent systems against one-goal strategy logic specifications

P Čermák, A Lomuscio, A Murano - … of the AAAI Conference on Artificial …, 2015 - ojs.aaai.org
Strategy Logic (SL) has recently come to the fore as a useful specification language to
reason about multi-agent systems. Its one-goal fragment, or SL [1G], is of particular interest …

[HTML][HTML] Parameterised verification for multi-agent systems

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - Artificial Intelligence, 2016 - Elsevier
We study the problem of verifying role-based multi-agent systems, where the number of
components cannot be determined at design time. We give a semantics that captures …

[PDF][PDF] Formal verification of open multi-agent systems

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio, E Pirovano… - Proceedings of the 18th …, 2019 - ifaamas.org
Given the increasing calls for AI to be trustworthy and explainable there has been growing
attention to issues of safety and reliability in the context of AI systems. Indeed, over the past …

A counter abstraction technique for the verification of robot swarms

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on …, 2015 - ojs.aaai.org
We study parameterised verification of robot swarms against temporal-epistemic
specifications. We relax some of the significant restrictions assumed in the literature and …

[PDF][PDF] Verifying emergent properties of swarms

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - Twenty-Fourth International Joint Conference on …, 2015 - ijcai.org
We investigate the general problem of establishing whether a swarm satisfies an emergent
property. We put forward a formal model for swarms that accounts for their nature of …

[PDF][PDF] Towards Formal Verification of Neuro-symbolic Multi-agent Systems.

P Kouvaros - IJCAI, 2023 - ijcai.org
This paper outlines some of the key methods we developed towards the formal verification of
multiagent systems, covering both symbolic and connectionist systems. It discusses logic …

[PDF][PDF] Verifying Fault-tolerance in Parameterised Multi-Agent Systems.

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - IJCAI, 2017 - ijcai.org
We develop a technique to evaluate the faulttolerance of a multi-agent system whose
number of agents is unknown at design time. We present a method for injecting a variety of …

[PDF][PDF] Verifying security properties in unbounded multiagent systems

I Boureanu, P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - Proceedings of the 2016 …, 2016 - core.ac.uk
We study the problem of analysing the security for an unbounded number of concurrent
sessions of a cryptographic protocol. Our formal model accounts for an arbitrary number of …
