ABOUT THE PROJECT:
In this project, we are using our invariant generation methodologies for security focused applications, like generation of invariants for a new application from the Android app store. We are investigating the science behind re-engineering a system through iterative invariant generation. We are also studying the connections between the machine-learning model used by the data mining and the finite state machine model of the program that is actually learned. We will generalize the models/abstractions obtained from this study and validate these methods of learning invariants using empirical evidence from a real security application.
