This paper investigates how machine learning APIs change over time and proposes an efficient method to monitor these changes.

problem Understanding and assessing changes in machine learning APIs over time.
method Systematic investigation of ML API shifts, proposing a principled adaptive sampling algorithm (MASA) for efficient estimation of confusion matrix shifts.
result MASA can accurately estimate confusion matrix shifts using up to 90% fewer samples compared to random sampling.

To save manual effort, developers often translate programs from one programming language to another, instead of implementing it from scratch. Translating application program interfaces (APIs) used in one language to functionally equivalent ones available in another language is an important aspect of program translation…

Recent studies have highlighted that deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, even in a black-box scenario. However, most of the existing black-box attack algorithms need to make a huge amount of queries to perform attacks, which is not practical in the real world. We note one of the main reas…
