Mora - Automatic Generation of Moment-Based Invariants

We introduce Mora, an automated tool for generating invariants of probabilistic programs. Inputs to Mora are so-called Prob-solvable loops, that is probabilistic programs with polynomial assignments over random variables and parametrized distributions. Combining methods from symbolic computation and...

description We introduce Mora, an automated tool for generating invariants of probabilistic programs. Inputs to Mora are so-called Prob-solvable loops, that is probabilistic programs with polynomial assignments over random variables and parametrized distributions. Combining methods from symbolic computation and statistics, Mora computes invariant properties over higher-order moments of loop variables, expressing, for example, statistical properties, such as expected values and variances, over the value distribution of loop variables.
