On the Stability and Realizability of Recurrent Polynomial Surrogate Ternary Logic Gate Networks

arXiv:2605.24649v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) can learn to predict Signal Temporal Logic (STL) verdicts online from partial trajectories, but deploying them as runtime monitors in safety-critical systems demands more than predictive accuracy. Standard RNN architectures offer no structural guarantee that outputs degrade gracefully under sensor degradation; a dropped input can silently flip a verdict from safe to unsafe. We introduce the Recurrent Differentiable Ternary Logic Gate Network (R-DTLGN), a recurrent architecture that operates over Kleene's three-val

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing reliance on AI for safety-critical systems necessitates new architectures that provide robustness against input degradation, a problem highlighted by the limitations of current RNNs.

Why it’s important

This research directly addresses a core challenge in deploying AI in high-stakes environments, potentially unlocking broader real-world applications for AI agents and autonomous systems.

What changes

The introduction of R-DTLGN offers a novel architectural approach to recurrent networks, providing structural guarantees for graceful degradation under sensor failure, differentiating it from standard RNNs.
