Singh, Juhi, Sharmila, V Ceronmani.  2020.  Detecting Trojan Attacks on Deep Neural Networks. 2020 4th International Conference on Computer, Communication and Signal Processing (ICCCSP). :1–5.
Machine learning and Artificial Intelligent techniques are the most used techniques. It gives opportunity to online sharing market where sharing and adopting model is being popular. It gives attackers many new opportunities. Deep neural network is the most used approached for artificial techniques. In this paper we are presenting a Proof of Concept method to detect Trojan attacks on the Deep Neural Network. Deploying trojan models can be dangerous in normal human lives (Application like Automated vehicle). First inverse the neuron network to create general trojan triggers, and then retrain the model with external datasets to inject Trojan trigger to the model. The malicious behaviors are only activated with the trojan trigger Input. In attack, original datasets are not required to train the model. In practice, usually datasets are not shared due to privacy or copyright concerns. We use five different applications to demonstrate the attack, and perform an analysis on the factors that affect the attack. The behavior of a trojan modification can be triggered without affecting the test accuracy for normal input datasets. After generating the trojan trigger and performing an attack. It's applying SHAP as defense against such attacks. SHAP is known for its unique explanation for model predictions.

The benefits of data distribution to multiple storage platforms with different characteristics have been widely acknowledged. Such systems are more tolerant to outages and bottlenecks and allow for more flexible policies regarding cost reduction, security and workload diversity. To leverage platforms simultaneously additional orchestration steps are needed. Existing approaches either implement such steps in the application's source code, resulting to minimum reusability across applications, or handle them at the infrastructure level. The latter usually involves over-engineering to handle different application behaviors and binds the system to a specific infrastructure. In this paper we present a middle-ware that decouples the I/O path from the application's source code and performs in-transit processing before data lands on the storage platforms. Abstracting the I/O process as a graph of reusable components allows the developers to easily implement complex storage solutions without the burden of writing custom code. Similarly, the administrators can create their own graph that reflects the infrastructure setup and append it to the preceding graph, so that various policies and infrastructure-related changes can be performed transparently to the application. Users can also extend the graph chain to enhance the application's functionality by using plug-ins. Our approach eliminates the need for custom I/O management code and allows for the applications to evolve independently of the storage back-end. To evaluate our system we employed a secure web service scenario that was seamlessly adapted to the changes in its storage back-end.

Analysis of acoustic wave scattering by a finite flat impedance strip grating is presented. The associated two-dimensional (2-D) boundary-value problem is considered in the full-wave manner and cast to a set of coupled integral equations. Based on them, we build several mathematical models. The focus of research is on the acoustic plane wave scattering by a grating of narrow impedance strips that has explicit asymptotic solution.

Modern storage systems stripe redundant data across multiple nodes to provide availability guarantees against node failures. One form of data redundancy is based on XOR-based erasure codes, which use only XOR operations for encoding and decoding. In addition to tolerating failures, a storage system must also provide fast failure recovery to reduce the window of vulnerability. This work addresses the problem of speeding up the recovery of a single-node failure for general XOR-based erasure codes. We propose a replace recovery algorithm, which uses a hill-climbing technique to search for a fast recovery solution, such that the solution search can be completed within a short time period. We further extend the algorithm to adapt to the scenario where nodes have heterogeneous capabilities (e.g., processing power and transmission bandwidth). We implement our replace recovery algorithm atop a parallelized architecture to demonstrate its feasibility. We conduct experiments on a networked storage system testbed, and show that our replace recovery algorithm uses less recovery time than the conventional recovery approach.
