Adversarial Learning For Coordinate Regression Through K-Layer Penetrating Representation, Mengxi Jiang, Yulei Sui, Yunqi Lei, Xiaofei Xie, Cuihua Li, Yang Liu, Ivor W. Tsang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Adversarial attack is a crucial step when evaluating the reliability and robustness of deep neural networks (DNNs) models. Most existing attack approaches apply an end-to-end gradient update strategy to generate adversarial examples for a classification or regression problem. However, few of them consider the non-differentiable DNN models (e.g., coordinate regression model) that prevent end-to-end backpropagation resulting in the failure of gradient calculation. In this paper, we present a new adversarial example generation approach for both untargeted and targeted attacks on coordinate regression models with non-differentiable operations. The novelty of our approach lies in a k-layer penetrating representation, on which we …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Threshold ECDSA receives interest lately due to its widespread adoption in blockchain applications. A common building block of all leading constructions involves a secure conversion of multiplicative shares into additive ones, which is called the multiplicative-to-additive (MtA) function. MtA dominates the overall complexity of all existing threshold ECDSA constructions. Specifically, O(n2) invocations of MtA are required in the case of n active signers. Hence, improvement of MtA leads directly to significant improvements for all state-of-the-art threshold ECDSA schemes.In this paper, we design a novel MtA by revisiting the Joye-Libert (JL) cryptosystem. Specifically, we revisit JL encryption and propose a JL-based …

Collaborative Cross-Modal Fusion With Large Language Model For Recommendation, Zhongzhou Liu, Hao Zhang, Kuicai Dong, Yuan Fang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Despite the success of conventional collaborative filtering (CF) approaches for recommendation systems, they exhibit limitations in leveraging semantic knowledge within the textual attributes of users and items. Recent focus on the application of large language models for recommendation (LLM4Rec) has highlighted their capability for effective semantic knowledge capture. However, these methods often overlook the collaborative signals in user behaviors. Some simply instruct-tune a language model, while others directly inject the embeddings of a CF-based model, lacking a synergistic fusion of different modalities. To address these issues, we propose a framework of Collaborative Cross-modal Fusion with Large Language Models, termed CCF-LLM, …

Calibrated One-Class Classification For Unsupervised Time Series Anomaly Detection, Hongzuo Xu, Yijie Wang, Songlei Jian, Qing Liao, Yongjun Wang, Guansong Pang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Time series anomaly detection is instrumental in maintaining system availability in various domains. Current work in this research line mainly focuses on learning data normality deeply and comprehensively by devising advanced neural network structures and new reconstruction/prediction learning objectives. However, their one-class learning process can be misled by latent anomalies in training data (i.e., anomaly contamination) under the unsupervised paradigm. Their learning process also lacks knowledge about the anomalies. Consequently, they often learn a biased, inaccurate normality boundary. To tackle these problems, this paper proposes calibrated one-class classification for anomaly detection, realizing contamination-tolerant, anomaly-informed learning of data normality via uncertainty …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Graphs can model complicated interactions between entities, which naturally emerge in many important applications. These applications can often be cast into standard graph learning tasks, in which a crucial step is to learn low-dimensional graph representations. Graph neural networks (GNNs) are currently the most popular model in graph embedding approaches. However, standard GNNs in the neighborhood aggregation paradigm suffer from limited discriminative power in distinguishing high-order graph structures as opposed to low-order structures. To capture high-order structures, researchers have resorted to motifs and developed motif-based GNNs. However, the existing motif-based GNNs still often suffer from less discriminative power on high-order …
