Accelerating System-Level Debug Using Rule Learning and Subgroup Discovery Techniques
We propose a root-causing procedure for accelerating system-level debug using rule-based techniques. We describe the procedure and how it provides high quality debug hints for reducing the debug effort. This includes the heuristics for engineering features from logs of many tests, and the data analytics techniques for generating powerful debug hints. As a case study, we used these techniques for root-causing failures of the Power Management (PM) design feature Package-C8 and showed their effectiveness. Furthermore, we propose an approach for mining the root-causing experience and results for reuse, to accelerate future debug activities and reduce dependency on validation experts. We believe that these techniques are beneficial also for other validation activities at different levels of abstraction, for complex hardware, software and firmware systems, both pre-silicon and post-silicon.

Procedural Refinement by LLM-driven Algorithmic Debugging for ARC-AGI-2
In high-complexity abstract reasoning, a system must infer a latent rule from a few examples or structured observations and apply it to unseen instances. LLMs can express such rules as programs, but ordinary conversation…
