Abstract
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are powerful machine learning models for approximating complex functions. In this work, we provide an exact reachability analysis method for DNNs with Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) activation functions. At its core, our set-based method utilizes a facet-vertex incidence matrix, which represents a complete encoding of the combinatorial structure of convex sets. When a safety violation is detected, our approach provides backtracking which determines the complete input set that caused the safety violation. The performance of our method is evaluated and compared to other state-of-the-art methods by using the ACAS Xu flight controller and other benchmarks.
