Adversarial-Playground: A Visualization Suite Showing How Adversarial Examples Fool Deep Learning
Recent studies have shown that attackers can force deep learning models to
misclassify so-called "adversarial examples": maliciously generated images
formed by making imperceptible modifications to pixel values. With growing
interest in deep learning for security applications, it is important for
security experts and users of machine learning to recognize how learning
systems may be attacked. Due to the complex nature of deep learning, it is
challenging to understand how deep models can be fooled by adversarial
examples. Thus, we present a web-based visualization tool,
Adversarial-Playground, to demonstrate the efficacy of common adversarial
methods against a convolutional neural network (CNN) system.
Adversarial-Playground is educational, modular and interactive. (1) It enables
non-experts to compare examples visually and to understand why an adversarial
example can fool a CNN-based image classifier. (2) It can help security experts
explore more vulnerability of deep learning as a software module. (3) Building
an interactive visualization is challenging in this domain due to the large
feature space of image classification (generating adversarial examples is slow
in general and visualizing images are costly). Through multiple novel design
choices, our tool can provide fast and accurate responses to user requests.
Empirically, we find that our client-server division strategy reduced the
response time by an average of 1.5 seconds per sample. Our other innovation, a
faster variant of JSMA evasion algorithm, empirically performed twice as fast
as JSMA and yet maintains a comparable evasion rate.

The differential graded odd nilHecke algebra
We equip the odd nilHecke algebra and its associated thick calculus category
with digrammatically local differentials. The resulting differential graded
Grothendieck groups are isomorphic to two different forms of the positive part
of quantum sl(2) at a fourth root of unity.Comment: 53 page
A Novel Chiral Phase of Achiral Hard Triangles and an Entropy-Driven Demixing of Enantiomers
We investigate the phase behavior of a system of hard equilateral and
right-angled triangles in two dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations. Hard
equilateral triangles undergo a continuous isotropic-triatic liquid crystal
phase transition at packing fraction . Similarly, hard right-angled
isosceles triangles exhibit a first-order phase transition from an isotropic
fluid phase to a rhombic liquid crystal phase with a coexistence region . Both these liquid crystal phases undergo a
continuous phase transition to their respective close-packed crystal structures
at high pressures. Although the particles and their close-packed crystals are
both achiral, the solid phases of equilateral and right-angled triangles
exhibit spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking at sufficiently high packing
fractions. The colloidal triangles rotate either in clockwise or anti-clockwise
direction with respect to one of the lattice vectors for packing fractions
higher than . As a consequence, these triangles spontaneously form a
regular lattice of left- or right-handed chiral holes which are surrounded by
six triangles in the case of equilateral triangles and four or eight triangles
for right-angled triangles. Moreover, our simulations show a spontaneous
entropy-driven demixing transition of the right- and left-handed "enantiomers".Comment: 9 pages, 10 figure
Transport properties and anisotropy in rare earth doped CaFe2As2 single crystals with Tc above 40 K
In this paper we report the superconductivity above 40 K in the electron
doping single crystal Ca1-xRexFe2As2 (Re = La, Ce, Pr). The x-ray diffraction
patterns indicate high crystalline quality and c-axis orientation. the
resistivity anomaly in the parent compound CaFe2As2 is completely suppressed by
partial replacement of Ca by rare earth and a superconducting transition
reaches as high as 43 K, which is higher than the value in electron doping
FeAs-122 compounds by substituting Fe ions with transition metal, even
surpasses the highest values observed in hole doping systems with a transition
temperature up to 38 K. The upper critical field has been determined with the
magnetic field along ab-plane and c-axis, yielding the anisotropy of 2~3.
Hall-effect measurements indicate that the conduction in this material is
dominated by electron like charge carriers. Our results explicitly demonstrate
the feasibility of inducing superconductivity in Ca122 compounds via electron
doping using aliovalent rare earth substitution into the alkaline earth site,
which should add more ingredients to the underlying physics of the iron-based
superconductors.Comment: 21 pages, 7 figure
Lower Pseudogap Phase: A Spin/Vortex Liquid State
The pseudogap phase is considered as a new state of matter in the phase
string model of the doped Mott insulator, which is composed of two distinct
regimes known as upper and lower pseudogap phases, respectively. The former
corresponds to the formation of spin singlet pairing and the latter is
characterized by the formation of the Cooper pair amplitude and described by a
generalized Gingzburg-Landau theory. Elementary excitation in this phase is a
charge-neutral object carrying spin-1/2 and locking with a supercurrent vortex,
known as spinon-vortex composite. Here thermally excited spinon-vortices
destroy the phase coherence and are responsible for nontrivial Nernst effect
and diamagnetism. The transport entropy and core energy associated with a
spinon-vortex are determined by the spin degrees of freedom. Such a spontaneous
vortex liquid phase can be also considered as a spin liquid with a finite
correlation length and gapped S=1/2 excitations, where a resonancelike
non-propagating spin mode emerges at the antiferromagnetic wavevector with a
doping-dependent characteristic energy. A quantitative phase diagram in the
parameter space of doping, temperature, and magnetic field is determined.
Comparisons with experiments are also made.Comment: 22 pages, 12 figure
Electromagnetically induced transparency in an inverted Y-type four-level system
The interaction of a weak probe laser with an inverted-Y type four-level
atomic system driven by two additional coherent fields is investigated
theoretically. Under the influence of the coherent coupling fields, the
steady-state linear susceptibility of the probe laser shows that the system can
have single or double electromagnetically induced transparency windows
depending on the amplitude and the detuning of the coupling lasers. The
corresponding index of refraction associated with the group velocity of the
probe laser can be controlled at both transparency windows by the coupling
fields. The propagation of the probe field can be switched from superluminal
near the resonance to subluminal on resonance within the single transparency
window when two coupling lasers are on resonance. This provides a potential
application in quantum information processing. We propose an atomic
system for experimental observation
