      Initial state opacity in stochastic des 

      Keroglou, C.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2013)
      A non-deterministic finite automaton is initial-state opaque if the membership of its true initial state to a given set of secret states S remains opaque (i.e., uncertain) to an intruder who observes system activity through ...

      Maximum likelihood failure diagnosis in finite state machines under unreliable observations 

      Athanasopoulou, E.; Li, L.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2010)
      In this paper, we develop a probabilistic methodology for failure diagnosis in finite state machines based on a sequence of unreliable observations. Given prior knowledge of the input probability distribution but without ...

      Opacity formulations and verification in discrete event systems 

      Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Keroglou, C. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014)
      In many emerging security applications, a property of a system, that may reveal important details about its behaviour, needs to be kept secret (opaque) to outside observers (intruders). Motivated by such applications, ...

      Probabilistic failure diagnosis in finite state machines under unreliable observations 

      Athanasopoulou, E.; Li, N.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2006)
      In this paper we develop a probabilistic methodology for calculating the likelihood that an observed, possibly corrupted event sequence was generated by two (or more) candidate finite state machines (FSMs) (one of which ...
