Welcome to the CPX Lab

Our lab focuses on ensuring the safety and reliability of cyber-physical systems.

1. How do we provide safety guarantees for the CPS system?

2. Can we use the analysis results to improve the system design?

3. How can we enable the system to understand multiple complex requirements?

Can the system adapt to new environments?

4. How do we mine requirements that best suitable for the system and the environment?
