Wild Patterns: Ten Years After the Rise of Adversarial Machine Learning
Learning-based pattern classifiers, including deep networks, have shown
impressive performance in several application domains, ranging from computer
vision to cybersecurity. However, it has also been shown that adversarial input
perturbations carefully crafted either at training or at test time can easily
subvert their predictions. The vulnerability of machine learning to such wild
patterns (also referred to as adversarial examples), along with the design of
suitable countermeasures, have been investigated in the research field of
adversarial machine learning. In this work, we provide a thorough overview of
the evolution of this research area over the last ten years and beyond,
starting from pioneering, earlier work on the security of non-deep learning
algorithms up to more recent work aimed to understand the security properties
of deep learning algorithms, in the context of computer vision and
cybersecurity tasks. We report interesting connections between these
apparently-different lines of work, highlighting common misconceptions related
to the security evaluation of machine-learning algorithms. We review the main
threat models and attacks defined to this end, and discuss the main limitations
of current work, along with the corresponding future challenges towards the
design of more secure learning algorithms.Comment: Accepted for publication on Pattern Recognition, 201
Fingerprint verification by fusion of optical and capacitive sensors
A few works have been presented so far on information fusion for fingerprint verification. None, however, have explicitly investigated the use of multi-sensor fusion, in other words, the integration of the information provided by multiple devices to capture fingerprint images. In this paper, a multi-sensor fingerprint verification system based on the fusion of optical and capacitive sensors is presented. Reported results show that such a multi-sensor system can perform better than traditional fingerprint matchers based on a single sensor. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
