Small Effect Sizes in Malware Detection? Make Harder Train/Test Splits!

no code implementations25 Dec 2023 Tirth Patel, Fred Lu, Edward Raff, Charles Nicholas, Cynthia Matuszek, James Holt

Industry practitioners care about small improvements in malware detection accuracy because their models are deployed to hundreds of millions of machines, meaning a 0. 1\% change can cause an overwhelming number of false positives.

Measuring Equality in Machine Learning Security Defenses: A Case Study in Speech Recognition

no code implementations17 Feb 2023 Luke E. Richards, Edward Raff, Cynthia Matuszek

Over the past decade, the machine learning security community has developed a myriad of defenses for evasion attacks.

Adversarial Transfer Attacks With Unknown Data and Class Overlap

no code implementations23 Sep 2021 Luke E. Richards, André Nguyen, Ryan Capps, Steven Forsythe, Cynthia Matuszek, Edward Raff

In this work we note that as studied, current transfer attack research has an unrealistic advantage for the attacker: the attacker has the exact same training data as the victim.

Neural Variational Learning for Grounded Language Acquisition

no code implementations20 Jul 2021 Nisha Pillai, Cynthia Matuszek, Francis Ferraro

We propose a learning system in which language is grounded in visual percepts without specific pre-defined categories of terms.

Evading Malware Classifiers via Monte Carlo Mutant Feature Discovery

2 code implementations15 Jun 2021 John Boutsikas, Maksim E. Eren, Charles Varga, Edward Raff, Cynthia Matuszek, Charles Nicholas

The use of Machine Learning has become a significant part of malware detection efforts due to the influx of new malware, an ever changing threat landscape, and the ability of Machine Learning methods to discover meaningful distinctions between malicious and benign software.

Practical Cross-modal Manifold Alignment for Grounded Language

no code implementations1 Sep 2020 Andre T. Nguyen, Luke E. Richards, Gaoussou Youssouf Kebe, Edward Raff, Kasra Darvish, Frank Ferraro, Cynthia Matuszek

We propose a cross-modality manifold alignment procedure that leverages triplet loss to jointly learn consistent, multi-modal embeddings of language-based concepts of real-world items.

Planning with Abstract Learned Models While Learning Transferable Subtasks

no code implementations16 Dec 2019 John Winder, Stephanie Milani, Matthew Landen, Erebus Oh, Shane Parr, Shawn Squire, Marie desJardins, Cynthia Matuszek

We introduce an algorithm for model-based hierarchical reinforcement learning to acquire self-contained transition and reward models suitable for probabilistic planning at multiple levels of abstraction.

A Joint Model of Language and Perception for Grounded Attribute Learning

no code implementations27 Jun 2012 Cynthia Matuszek, Nicholas FitzGerald, Luke Zettlemoyer, Liefeng Bo, Dieter Fox

As robots become more ubiquitous and capable, it becomes ever more important to enable untrained users to easily interact with them.
