Call for Papers: DX'25

The 36th International Conference on Principles of Diagnosis and Resilient Systems (DX'25) will be held in Nashville, TN from September 22–24, 2025.

DX'25 is a forum to present state-of-the-art research and experience reports, exchange and discuss emerging ideas, debate current issues, and envision future challenges. The conference focus includes diagnosis (identifying root causes for encountered issues and unexpected scenarios) and resilience (the intrinsic ability of a system to sustain its required operations when impacted by contingencies).

Topics of Interest

Relevant research areas include topics that relate to diagnosis, resilient design, and operational resilience, including but not limited to:

• Anomaly and fault detection
• Fault and root cause isolation
• Prognosis
• Fault-tolerant, fault-adaptive, and resilient control
• Reconfiguration, planning, and intelligent decision-making
• Verification and debugging at design and run-time
• Explanation, validation, and certification

DX'25 is particularly interested in model-driven and data-driven approaches (including deep learning and LLM-based algorithms) and submissions that combine and/or compare model- and data-driven approaches.

We welcome evidence-driven position papers, theory papers, experience reports, and papers that span across multiple research and application domains that cover digital, logical, analog, mechanical, cyber-physical, biological, ecological, ethical, economical, and social systems and processes.

DX Competition (DXC’25)

The DXC’25 will feature challenges related to solving diagnosis problems in three application domains:

1. LiU-ICE benchmark: Fault diagnosis of a combustion engine.
2. SLIDe (Steam Line Intrusion Detection) benchmark: Detection and isolation of process faults and cybernetic attacks in a steam line system.
3. LUMEN (Liquid Upper stage demonstrator Engine) benchmark: Diagnosis for the fuel turbopump subsystem of a rocket engine.

For more information, refer to the DXC’25 repository.

Doctoral Consortium

PhD students are encouraged to submit a description of their research for a special mentoring session. Accepted entries will be included in the archival proceedings.
