Neural-symbolic monitoring and adaptation

Runtime monitors check the execution of a system under scrutiny against a set of formal specifications describing a prescribed behaviour. The two core properties for monitoring systems are scalability and adaptability. In this paper we show how RuleRunner, our previous neural-symbolic monitoring system, can exploit learning strategies in order to integrate desired deviations with the initial set of specification. The resulting system allows for fast conformance checking and can suggest possible enhanced models when the initial set of specifications has to be adapted in order to include new patterns.
