Hi! 👋 I’m Kristóf Marussy
I’m a research fellow working at the 🔬 Critical Systems Research Group (ftsrg) at the 🏫 Department of Artificial Intelligence and Systems Engineering (MIT) at 🏛️ Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME). My research interests include graph generation, logic solvers, formal verification, and applying these techniques for ensuring the safety and correctness of critical systems.
I also like free (as in liberty) and open-source software. My pronouns are he/him.
Research
Critical systems
Cyber-physical systems especially in the railway, automotive, and aerospace domains with stringent correctness and reliability requirements
Formal verification
Proving the safety and reliability of critical system designs and software components in a mathematically precise way
Automated reasoning
Integrating logical and numerical solvers with intelligent heuristics to answer challenging analysis questions and synthesize reliable system designs
Graph generation
Efficient graph-based information processing for system modeling, testing data-driven systems, and knowledge representation in autonomous systems

I also contributed to Ferdium, a desktop app that combines and organizes messaging apps to take back user freedom. Give it a spin!
I host some Git repositories and Jenkins CI to publish my own code and mirror software I contribute to or use.
Take a look at the mirrors of Firejail and sway. Here are my scripts for mirroring.
