  bibo_abstract:
  - Formal verification provides assurances that a probabilistic system satisfies
    its specification—conditioned on the system model being aligned with reality.
    We propose alignment monitoring to watch that this assumption is justified. We
    consider a probabilistic model well aligned if it accurately predicts the behaviour
    of an uncertain system in advance. An alignment score measures this by quantifying
    the similarity between the model’s predicted and the system’s (unknown) actual
    distributions. An alignment monitor observes the system at runtime; at each point
    in time it uses the current state and the model to predict the next state. After
    the next state is observed, the monitor updates the verdict, which is a high-probability
    interval estimate for the true alignment score. We utilize tools from sequential
    forecasting to construct our alignment monitors. Besides a monitor for measuring
    the expected alignment score, we introduce a differential alignment monitor, designed
    for comparing two models, and a weighted alignment monitor, which permits task-specific
    alignment monitoring. We evaluate our monitors experimentally on the PRISM benchmark
    suite. They are fast, memory-efficient, and detect misalignment early.@eng
