Extracting Automata from Recurrent Neural Networks Using Queries and Counterexamples

ICML 2018  ·  Gail Weiss, Yoav Goldberg, Eran Yahav ·

We present a novel algorithm that uses exact learning and abstraction to extract a deterministic finite automaton describing the state dynamics of a given trained RNN. We do this using Angluin's L* algorithm as a learner and the trained RNN as an oracle. Our technique efficiently extracts accurate automata from trained RNNs, even when the state vectors are large and require fine differentiation.
