nnenum - The Neural Network Enumeration Tool

nnenum (pronounced en-en-en-um) is a high-performance neural network verification tool. Multiple levels of abstraction are used to quickly verify ReLU networks without sacrificing completeness. Analysis combines three types of zonotopes with star set (triangle) overapproximations, and uses efficient parallelized ReLU case splitting. The tool is written in Python 3, uses GLPK for LP solving and directly accepts ONNX network files and vnnlib specifications as input. The ImageStar trick allows sets to be quickly propagated through all layers supported by the ONNX runtime, such as convolutional layers with arbitrary parameters.

The tool is written by Stanley Bak (homepage, twitter).

Getting Started

The Dockerfile shows how to install all the dependencies (mostly python packages) and set up the environment. The tool loads neural networks directly from ONNX files and properties to check from vnnlib files. For example, try running:

python3 -m nnenum.nnenum examples/acasxu/data/ACASXU_run2a_3_3_batch_2000.onnx examples/acasxu/data/prop_9.vnnlib

You can see a few more examples in run_tests.sh.

VNN 2020 Neural Network Verification Competition (VNN-COMP) Version

The nnenum tool performed well in VNN-COMP 2020, being the only tool to verify all the ACAS-Xu benchmarks (each in under 10 seconds). The version used for the competition as well as model files and scripts to run the compeition benchmarks are in the vnn2020 branch.

CAV 2020 Paper Version

The CAV 2020 paper "Improved Geometric Path Enumeration for Verifying ReLU Neural Networks" by S. Bak, H.D Tran, K. Hobbs and T. T. Johnson corresponds to optimizations integrated into the exact analysis mode of nnenum, which also benefits overapproximative analysis. The paper version and repeatability evaluation package instructions are available here.
