## Work
|
|
|
|
Yesterday Dan and I had our meeting about
|
|
[[thesis-ideas-2025-07-30 | topic ideas]]. The results were
|
|
as follows:
|
|
|
|
5. Integrating Shielding in Nuclear Power
|
|
3. Formally Verified NN CTRL of CRS
|
|
1. Temporal Logic Specifications for Autonomous Control
|
|
Synthesis.
|
|
1. Formally Verified Runtime Monitoring and Fallback
|
|
6. High Assurance Fault Detection with Digital Twins
|
|
4. Verified Adaptive Control.
|
|
|
|
The final topic result?
|
|
|
|
*Hybrid Controller Synthesis from Temporal Logic
|
|
Specifications*
|
|
|
|
The research will be basically a mix of the third and fourth
|
|
idea. More work to come on this one.
|
|
|
|
I also got roped into making a presentation about Strix for
|
|
next week's meeting. So I must learn about that!
|
|
|
|
## Reading
|
|
|
|
Yesterday I read more of *The Power of Habit* and I learned
|
|
about the **craving**. A craving is what actually makes the
|
|
habit loop work. It was explained to me that the brain
|
|
releases a spike in activity at first when it recognizes the
|
|
reward. Once the cue and routine are associated with the
|
|
reward, the brain over time will deliver the activity spike
|
|
as an anticipation of the reward *earlier and earlier*. The
|
|
result is that the brain gets the activity spike as soon as
|
|
it sees the cue, anticipates the reward, and is thus
|
|
motivated to do the routine. The craving is what makes
|
|
habits easy.
|
|
|

|
|
## Personal
|
|
|
|
Finally my personal info. I feel pretty good today. I didn't
|
|
get a lot done this morning but I'm steady cooking now that
|
|
I'm working in a Starbucks on campus. I've been
|
|
peoplewatching as people slowly move in for the fall
|
|
semester. It's fun to see all the different kinds of people
|
|
walking around and to see the connection between kids and
|
|
parents. The kids definitely look more nervous on average
|
|
than the parents. And I get it, the parents know what to
|
|
expect, but for the kids, this is the transition to the deep
|
|
end. They'll be fine.
|
|
|
|
On the lady front, here's today's update:
|
|
|
|
**Miranda:**
|
|
Honestly I'm getting a little bored. I think it might just
|
|
be a texting issue, or perhaps the infatuation wearing off.
|
|
That's okay though, she's really busy this week som maybe
|
|
that has something to do with it.
|
|
|
|
**Abby:**
|
|
No update!
|
|
|
|
**Katarina:**
|
|
Also no update, but I'm excited for our date tonight. We'll
|
|
see how it goes.
|
|
|
|
I made some updates to my hinge profile to make things sound
|
|
more serious and better indicate what I want / who I am.
|
|
Maybe this'll stand out more. Honestly, I tried to write the
|
|
profile like one I'd be looking for.
