pystlogic 0.1.3.post3

A library for efficiently working with Signal Temporal Logic (STL) and its quantitative semantics.

pystlogic

This package is a forked version of anand-bala's signal-temporal-logic.

This package provides an interface to define offline monitoring for Signal Temporal Logic (STL) specifications. The library is written in C++ (and can be used with CMake) and has been wrapped for Python usage using pybind11.

The library is inspired by the following projects:

• py-metric-temporal-logic is a tool written in pure Python, and provides an elegant interface for evaluating discrete time signals using Metric Temporal Logic (MTL).
• Breach and S-TaLiRo are Matlab toolboxes designed for falsification and simulation-based testing of cyber-physical systems with STL and MTL specifications, respectively. One of their various features includes the ability to evaluate the robustness of signals against STL/MTL.

The signal-temporal-logic library aims to be different from the above in the following ways:

• Written for speed and targets Python.
  • While py-metric-temporal-logic is written in Python, it doesn't perform computations efficiently and quickly.
• Support for multiple quantitative semantics.
  • All the above tools have their own way of computing the quantitative semantics for STL/MTL specifications.
  • This tool will try to support common ways of computing the robustness, but will also have support for other quantitative semantics of STL.
