Zhenjiang and Ani present temporal confidence at ACL’26
—
Ani (who also volunteered) and Zhenjiang traveled to the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) conference in San Diego to present our work on using temporal signatures in language model logics to calibrate their correctness confidence. It was an exciting contribution and an exciting trip!

Zhenjiang presents confidences & world models at CPS Week
—
Zhenjiang Mao travelled all the way to Brittany in France to present his recent contributions at the CPS-IoT Week 2026. First, Zhenjiang showcased his proposed PhD work on “Action Confidence Trajectories for Safety Assurance in Autonomous Systems” at the CPS-IoT Week PhD Forum. He gave a short pitch and then presented a poster, which was…

Ivan presents LLM confidence calibration at Shonan
—
Ivan had the honor of attending an invitation-only visionary workshop #235 on LLM-guided assurance and synthesis for CPS in Shonan, Japan. He presented the lab’s work on calibrating chain-of-thought confidence by discovering temporal patterns with Signal Temporal Logic. Materials: Some of the prominent debates at the workshop included:

STL CoT confidence = most innovative poster
—
Zhenjiang and Ani presented a poster with their work on chain-of-thought confidence with signal temporal logic at the Annual Nelms IoT Conference. The core idea of this research is to find patterns in LLM confidence that tend to correlate with correct and incorrect answers. Then, these patterns can be used to determine the confidence, i.e.,…

Jordan presents V&V for vision-based systems at ATVA
—
Jordan Peper went all the way to Bengaluru, India, to present our work (in collaboration with UIUC) on unified verification and validation of vision-based autonomy at the International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis (ATVA). Allegedly, this is a hot problem, but the abstraction is quite complex. That’s what it takes — for…
