Multiobjective Preexpectation Reasoning for Probabilistic Programs

Lena Verscht, Hannah Mertens, Kevin Batz +3

Probabilistic programs with nondeterminism model planning problems in which a strategy typically resolves the nondeterminism to meet a specification. We study the multiobjective se…

Caesar: A Deductive Verifier for Probabilistic Programs

Philipp Schröer, Kevin Batz, Umut Yiğit Dural +4

Caesar is a deductive verifier for probabilistic programs. At its core lies HeyVL, a quantitative intermediate verification language based on the real-valued logic HeyLo. HeyVL all…

The Algebra of Iterative Constructions

Kevin Batz, Benjamin Lucien Kaminski, Lucas Kehrer +3

Fixed points are a recurring theme in computer science and are often constructed as limits of suitably seeded fixed point iterations. We present the algebra of iterative constructi…

noDice: Inference for Discrete Probabilistic Programs with Nondeterminism and Conditioning

Tobias Gürtler, Benjamin Lucien Kaminski

Probabilistic programming languages (PPLs) are an expressive and intuitive means of representing complex probability distributions. In that realm, languages like Dice target an imp…

Generating Functions Meet Occupation Measures: Invariant Synthesis for Probabilistic Loops (Extended Version)

Darion Haase, Kevin Batz, Adrian Gallus +4

A fundamental computational task in probabilistic programming is to infer a program's output (posterior) distribution from a given initial (prior) distribution. This problem is cha…
