Machine learning (ML) algorithms require a massive amount of data. Firms such as Google and Facebook exploit user's data to deliver a more precise ML-based service. However, collecting users' data is a risky action because their private data can be leaked through the transmission. As a remedy, federated learning is introduced. In federated learning, a central server distributes a machine learning model to users. Each user trains the model to its data, and send the model back. Later the models are aggregated and distributed again. Federated learning is more secure in that it emancipates users from the risk of ...

Gr-33 Efficient Yet Robust Privacy Preservation \\For Mpeg-Dash Based Video Streaming, Luke A Cranfill
C-Day Computing Showcase
MPEG-DASH is a video streaming standard that outlines protocols for sending audio and video content from a server to a client over HTTP. However, it creates an opportunity for an adversary to invade users' privacy. While a user is watching a video, information is leaked in the form of meta-data, the size and time that the server sent data to the user. After a fingerprint of this data is created, the adversary can use this to identify whether a target user is watching the corresponding video. Only one defense strategy has been proposed to deal with this problem: differential privacy ...

There are abundant number of IoT devices that are connected on over multiple networks. These devices can be exposed to multiple different types of network threats. Though, these devices do have security and software that does act as a wall of protection we purpose a Federated Learning (FL) approach that would allow detection of threats of a network for IoT devices. Federated Learning can be best described as decentralized training. Adhering to the GDPR rules that prevent data from being distributed, FL addressed the challenge by bringing the ML model to the data rather than the traditional method where the ...

Studies show that the quality of the information collected during an elicitation interview, and consequently the quality of the software product that needs to be developed, highly depends on the interviewee's engagement. Because of social expectations, interviewees tend to hide if they are bored or not engaged. To overcome this problem and support the analyst during the interviews, this research uses biometric data and voice features, together with supervised machine learning algorithms, to predict the interviewee's engagement. We built our solution on an experiment consisted of interviewing 31 participants. We collected the data using an Empatica wristband and ...

This research project proposes a new deep learning architecture that is used to align human poses to be used in an exercise assistant system. In short, the assistant system takes a video feed of a user doing exercise, then provides visual feedback by comparing the user’s current pose to a professional trainer’s pose that is stored in the system. We design a new deep architecture to accomplish this task and show better accuracy and efficiency.Advisors(s): Project Sponsors - Dr. Ying Xie & Dr. Linh Le Project Advisor- Dr. Meng HanTopic(s): Data/Data AnalyticsIT 7993

In this paper, we introduce a data augmentation-based defense strategy for preventing the reconstruction of training data through the exploitation of stolen model gradient. The collection of training data to a centralized server has been required for the training of neural networks in traditional machine learning. However, as privacy becomes a significant concern, the concept of Federated learning is introduced. In federated learning, a centralized server shares the well-trained neural network and participating end-users send the gradient back to the server after training without sharing the sensitive data itself. As the concept of federated learning does not share the original ...
