One pixel modification can make deep models unlearnable.
Recent research has revealed that the output of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) can be easily altered by adding relatively small perturbations to the input vector. In this paper, we analyze an attack in an extremely limited scenario where only one pixel can be modified. For that we propose a novel method for generating one-…
New strategy uses interpretability to improve adversarial learning.
Deep neural networks were shown to be vulnerable to single pixel modifications. However, the reason behind such phenomena has never been elucidated. Here, we propose Propagation Maps which show the influence of the perturbation in each layer of the network. Propagation Maps reveal that even in extremely deep networks s…
We propose a new family of optimization criteria for variational auto-encoding models, generalizing the standard evidence lower bound. We provide conditions under which they recover the data distribution and learn latent features, and formally show that common issues such as blurry samples and uninformative latent feat…
Dual quality assessment method tackles adversarial robustness issues across various metrics.
This thesis investigates unsupervised time series representation learning for sequence prediction problems, i.e. generating nice-looking input samples given a previous history, for high dimensional input sequences by decoupling the static input representation from the recurrent sequence representation. We introduce thr…
This paper presents a useful method to achieve classification in satellite imagery. The approach is based on pixel level study employing various features such as correlation, homogeneity, energy and contrast. In this study gray-scale images are used for training the classification model. For supervised classification, …
Optimized neural networks for Edge TPU achieve high accuracy in real-time image classification.
We propose a novel approach towards adversarial attacks on neural networks (NN), focusing on tampering the data used for training instead of generating attacks on trained models. Our network-agnostic method creates a backdoor during training which can be exploited at test time to force a neural network to exhibit abnor…
DMRL improves UDA by mixing source and target samples and enriching latent space structures.
Team MIE-Lab forecasts city traffic using past hour's multi-channel images.
Learning-based methods for visual segmentation have made progress on particular types of segmentation tasks, but are limited by the necessary supervision, the narrow definitions of fixed tasks, and the lack of control during inference for correcting errors. To remedy the rigidity and annotation burden of standard appro…
C-SWMs learn structured world models from raw data.
Simplified masked diffusion models improve discrete data generation.
Scene understanding remains a significant challenge in the computer vision community. The visual psychophysics literature has demonstrated the importance of interdependence among parts of the scene. Yet, the majority of methods in computer vision remain local. Pictorial structures have arisen as a fundamental parts-bas…
Expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is to find maximum likelihood solution for models having latent variables. A typical example is Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) which requires Gaussian assumption, however, natural images are highly non-Gaussian so that GMM cannot be applied to perform clustering task on pixel space…
