Causal NN controller repair presented at ICAA’23


Shown above is a 5-step workflow of our causal repair: (1) Extract the behaviors of a learning component as an I/O table. (2) Encode the dependency of the desired property outcome on the I/O behaviors with a Halpern-Pearl model. (3) Search for a counterfactual model value assignment, revealing an actual cause and a repair. (4) Decode the found assignment as a counterfactual component behavior. (5) Replace the original learning component with a repaired component that performs this counterfactual behavior to fix the system.
