Learning-based testing for autonomous systems using spatial and temporal requirements

Abstract

Cooperating cyber-physical systems-of-systems (CO-CPS) such as vehicle platoons, robot teams or drone swarms usually have strict safety requirements on both spatial and temporal behavior. Learning-based testing is a combination of machine learning and model checking that has been successfully used for black-box requirements testing of cyber-physical systems-of-systems. We present an overview of research in progress to apply learning-based testing to evaluate spatio-temporal requirements on autonomous systems-of-systems through modeling and simulation.
