Internship reports

Bachelor internship: Distance Between Modal Interpretations for Belief Revision

A two months internship in modal logic at the Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse (IRIT) with Andreas Herzig and Jonathan Ben-Naim. The goal was to create a distance between Kripke models which could be used in order to generalise distance-based belief update to modal logic.

You can find the final report here and the slides of the final presentation here.

Master internship: Backward Responsibility in Counterexamples of Model Checkers

A five month internship in model checking at the Fakultät informatik of the University of Dresden with Christel Baier, Sascha Klüppelholz and Jakob Piribauer. The goal was to create, study and implement a measure of responsibility in a transition system with respect to a counterexample. This measure could be used in complementarity with model checkers to localise the source of violation of safety propeterties in counterexamples.

You can find the final report here and the slides of the final presentation here.

This work lead to the writing of an article in collaboration with Johannes Lehmann, which was accepted by the conference AAAI. You can find an extended version of the article on ArXiV, the code by Johannes Lehmann on Github and a snapshot on Zenodo.

Master thesis at the CogMaster: Impact of social trust on the clustering of social networks

A six month internship in cognitive sciences at the Institut Jean Nicod with Coralie Chevallier and Jean-Baptiste André. This internship aimed to study the effect of social trust (trust that people have in strangers) on the structure of social networks, and in particular the clustering coefficient.

You can find the final report here and the python code together with illustrating videos of the simualtions here.
