Why Do Adversarial Attacks Transfer? Explaining Transferability of Evasion and Poisoning Attacks
Transferability captures the ability of an attack against a machine-learning
model to be effective against a different, potentially unknown, model.
Empirical evidence for transferability has been shown in previous work, but the
underlying reasons why an attack transfers or not are not yet well understood.
In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis aimed to investigate the
transferability of both test-time evasion and training-time poisoning attacks.
We provide a unifying optimization framework for evasion and poisoning attacks,
and a formal definition of transferability of such attacks. We highlight two
main factors contributing to attack transferability: the intrinsic adversarial
vulnerability of the target model, and the complexity of the surrogate model
used to optimize the attack. Based on these insights, we define three metrics
that impact an attack's transferability. Interestingly, our results derived
from theoretical analysis hold for both evasion and poisoning attacks, and are
confirmed experimentally using a wide range of linear and non-linear
classifiers and datasets
Deep Learning with Partially Labeled Data for Radio Map Reconstruction
In this paper, we address the problem of Received Signal Strength map
reconstruction based on location-dependent radio measurements and utilizing
side knowledge about the local region; for example, city plan, terrain height,
gateway position. Depending on the quantity of such prior side information, we
employ Neural Architecture Search to find an optimized Neural Network model
with the best architecture for each of the supposed settings. We demonstrate
that using additional side information enhances the final accuracy of the
Received Signal Strength map reconstruction on three datasets that correspond
to three major cities, particularly in sub-areas near the gateways where larger
variations of the average received signal power are typically observed.Comment: 42 pages, 39 figure
A Survey on Data Mining Techniques Applied to Energy Time Series Forecasting
Data mining has become an essential tool during the last decade to analyze large sets of data. The variety of techniques it includes and the successful results obtained in many application fields, make this family of approaches powerful and widely used. In particular, this work explores the application of these techniques to time series forecasting. Although classical statistical-based methods provides reasonably good results, the result of the application of data mining outperforms those of classical ones. Hence, this work faces two main challenges: (i) to provide a compact mathematical formulation of the mainly used techniques; (ii) to review the latest works of time series forecasting and, as case study, those related to electricity price and demand markets.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad TIN2014-55894-C2-RJunta de Andalucía P12- TIC-1728Universidad Pablo de Olavide APPB81309
Artificial Intelligence Enabled Wireless Networking for 5G and Beyond: Recent Advances and Future Challenges
5G wireless communication networks are currently being deployed, and B5G networks are expected to be developed over the next decade. AI technologies and, in particular, ML have the potential to efficiently solve the unstructured and seemingly intractable problems by involving large amounts of data that need to be dealt with in B5G. This article studies how AI and ML can be leveraged for the design and operation of B5G networks. We first provide a comprehensive survey of recent advances and future challenges that result from bringing AI/ML technologies into B5G wireless networks. Our survey touches on different aspects of wireless network design and optimization, including channel measurements, modeling, and estimation, physical layer research, and network management and optimization. Then ML algorithms and applications to B5G networks are reviewed, followed by an overview of standard developments of applying AI/ML algorithms to B5G networks. We conclude this study with future challenges on applying AI/ML to B5G networks.Funding Agencies|National Key R&D Program of China [2018YFB1801101]; National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC)National Natural Science Foundation of China [61960206006]; High Level Innovation and Entrepreneurial Talent Introduction Program in Jiangsu; Research Fund of National Mobile Communications Research Laboratory, Southeast University [2020B01]; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central UniversitiesFundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities [2242019R30001]; EU H2020 RISE TESTBED2 project [872172]</p
