Robust Estimation and Wavelet Thresholding in Partial Linear Models
This paper is concerned with a semiparametric partially linear regression
model with unknown regression coefficients, an unknown nonparametric function
for the non-linear component, and unobservable Gaussian distributed random
errors. We present a wavelet thresholding based estimation procedure to
estimate the components of the partial linear model by establishing a
connection between an -penalty based wavelet estimator of the
nonparametric component and Huber's M-estimation of a standard linear model
with outliers. Some general results on the large sample properties of the
estimates of both the parametric and the nonparametric part of the model are
established. Simulations and a real example are used to illustrate the general
results and to compare the proposed methodology with other methods available in
the recent literature
ECGadv: Generating Adversarial Electrocardiogram to Misguide Arrhythmia Classification System
Deep neural networks (DNNs)-powered Electrocardiogram (ECG) diagnosis systems
recently achieve promising progress to take over tedious examinations by
cardiologists. However, their vulnerability to adversarial attacks still lack
comprehensive investigation. The existing attacks in image domain could not be
directly applicable due to the distinct properties of ECGs in visualization and
dynamic properties. Thus, this paper takes a step to thoroughly explore
adversarial attacks on the DNN-powered ECG diagnosis system. We analyze the
properties of ECGs to design effective attacks schemes under two attacks models
respectively. Our results demonstrate the blind spots of DNN-powered diagnosis
systems under adversarial attacks, which calls attention to adequate
countermeasures.Comment: Accepted by AAAI 202
