Open- and Closed-Loop Neural Network Verification using Polynomial Zonotopes
share
We present a novel approach to efficiently compute tight non-convex enclosures of the image through neural networks with ReLU, sigmoid, or hyperbolic tangent activation functions. In particular, we abstract the input-output relation of each neuron by a polynomial approximation, which is evaluated in a set-based manner using polynomial zonotopes. Our proposed method is especially well suited for reachability analysis of neural network controlled systems since polynomial zonotopes are able to capture the non-convexity in both, the image through the neural network as well as the reachable set. We demonstrate the superior performance of our approach compared to other state of the art methods on various benchmark systems.
