Software vulnerabilities are a major cyber threat and it is important to detect them. One important approach to detecting vulnerabilities is to use deep learning while treating a program function as a whole, known as function-level vulnerability detectors. However, the limitation of this approach is not understood. In this paper, we investigate its limitation in detecting one class of vulnerabilities known as inter-procedural vulnerabilities, where the to-be-patched statements and the vulnerability-triggering statements belong to different functions. For this purpose, we create the first Inter -Procedural Vulnerability Dataset (InterPVD) based on C/C++ open-source software, and we propose a tool dubbed VulTrigger for identifying vulnerability-triggering statements across functions. Experimental results show that VulTrigger can effectively identify vulnerability-triggering statements and inter-procedural vulnerabilities. Our findings include: (i) inter-procedural vulnerabilities are prevalent with an average of 2.8 inter-procedural layers; and (ii) function-level vulner-ability detectors are much less effective in detecting to-be-patched functions of inter-procedural vulnerabilities than detecting their counterparts of intra-procedural vulnerabilities.

The processor's Performance Monitor Unit (PMU) allows the recording of architectural and microarchitectural events for profiling purposes. In this study, we reveal a security issue caused by the fact that current PMU implementations are capable of recording some events that happened during transient executions. We propose the PMU -Spill attack, a new kind of attack that enables attackers to maliciously leak the secret data in transient executions. We demonstrate on real hardware that PMU -Spill attack can leak the secret data stored in Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX). In addition, we perform a thorough study to reveal all the vulnerable PMU counters and find that 20 of them can be used to achieve PMU -Spill attack. Our experiments suggest that the throughput of PMU -Spill attack is up to 575.3 bytes per second (Bps) with an average error rate of 1.89% when leaking the SGX-protected secret data.

Estimating the confidence of a machine learning (ML) model plays an important role in minimizing undesirable outcomes and safety risks when using ML models in the real world, especially in high-stake application scenarios. However, the majority of existing confidence estimation methods do not work well without incorporating internal information from the model, such as the gradients, internal representations or checkpoints of its training process, which might compromise the security of the model. To alleviate such limitations, we intend to design a reliable confidence estimation method that requires as little internal model information as possible, yet precisely detecting uncertain samples for the model. In this work, we propose a confidence estimation approach that learns the confidence criterion (that is, the true class probability, TCP) based on the explanations of model’s predictions. The proposed approach utilizes the knowledge learned in the model with the leverage of the explanations for model’s prediction rather than directly extracting internal information of the model, so that it can be adopted in a wide range of applications. Several experiments, including experiments on different datasets, different models and non-IID (independent and identically distributed) test datasets, are conducted to examine the effectiveness of our confidence estimation method. The experimental results show that our proposed approach provides a reliable confidence estimation and generally performs better than the compared methods, especially in the capability of recognizing when a ML model makes errors.

Machine learning for education is an emerging discipline where a model is developed based on training data to make predictions on students’ performance. The main aim is to identify students who would have difficulty in their learning and to take precautionary measures to help them. In this paper, we conduct a comparative analysis of the most used machine learning classification models in the literature. We evaluate the performance of the models in terms of accuracy, F-measure, and execution time using two real-life education datasets. The performance of the models is data-driven. We give insights into the models’ performance and advise on the best model to use accordingly. We believe the results of this paper will be widely used by education professionals for accurate predictions. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Deep learning has been widely used in source code classification tasks, such as code classification according to their functionalities, code authorship attribution, and vulnerability detection. Unfortunately, the black-box nature of deep learning makes it hard to interpret and understand why a classifier (i.e., classification model) makes a particular prediction on a given example. This lack of interpretability (or explainability) might have hindered their adoption by practitioners because it is not clear when they should or should not trust a classifier's prediction. The lack of interpretability has motivated a number of studies in recent years. However, existing methods are neither robust nor able to cope with out-of-distribution examples. In this paper, we propose a novel method to produce Robust interpreters for a given deep learning-based code classifier; the method is dubbed Robin. The key idea behind Robin is a novel hybrid structure combining an interpreter and two approximators, while leveraging the ideas of adversarial training and data augmentation. Experimental results show that on average the interpreter produced by Robin achieves a 6.11% higher fidelity (evaluated on the classifier), 67.22% higher fidelity (evaluated on the approximator), and 15.87x higher robustness than that of the three existing interpreters we evaluated. Moreover, the interpreter is 47.31% less affected by out-of-distribution examples than that of LEMNA.

distributed Sparse Signal Detection With Energy-Efficient Censoring-Quantization in Wireless Sensor Networks

IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the energy consumption of sensors and the system performance are inevitably contradictory. For the distributed detection problem in WSN, the censoring technique has been proposed as an energy-efficient transmission strategy. However, most current detection schemes with censoring do not consider the quantization operations in actual communication systems to further save the transmission energy in actual communication systems. In this paper, we propose two energy-efficient detection schemes including a common censoring-quantization strategy and two different detectors. This censoring-quantization strategy aims to reduce the energy consumption of transmitting observations. It is modeled as a three-state equivalent transmission strategy at sensors, with the states being keeping silent, transmitting "1», and transmitting "-1 ». To fully explore the advantage of this strategy, we design two detectors, namely the Censoring-Quantization Maximum-Likelihood (CQ-ML) detector and the Censoring-Quantization Locally Most Powerful Test (CQ-LMPT) detector, respectively for two scenarios, which correspond to whether the fusion center (FC) knows the parameters of the Phenomenon of Interest (POI). We further analyze the theoretical performance of our schemes to provide the optimal censoring-quantization thresholds. Finally, experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our schemes and highlight the significant energy consumption reduction with negligible performance loss. © 2017 IEEE.

Implicit Multi-Scale Swin Transformer Network for Image Denoising

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics 2025年

作者： Zhang, Qi Ding, Yuwei Zhang, Weiqi Zhu, Yian Zhang, Bob Lin, Jerry Chun-Wei Harbin Institute of Technology at Weihai School of Economics and Management Weihai China Nanjing University State Key Laboratory for Novel Software Technology Nanjing China Northwestern Polytechnical University School of Computer Science Xi’an China Northwestern Polytechnical University Yangtze River Delta Research Institute Taicang China University of Macau PAMI Research Group Department of Computer and Information Science Taipa China Department of Distributed Systems and IT Devices Electrical Engineering and Mathematical Sciences Silesian university of technology Poland

Image denoising has been used in various edge computing scenarios such as consumer electronics to improve the image quality and user experience. Existing image denoising methods based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and vision Transformers achieve good performance by empirically utilizing residual neural network (ResNet) as basic component. However, ResNet lacks interpretability in network design and also long-term memory of features, potentially restricting the performance of denoising networks. In this paper, we propose an Implicit Multi-scale Swin Transformer Network (IMSNet) for image denoising, which introduces the implicit Euler scheme from the feature memory perspective. Specifically, densely connected implicit feature extraction blocks (IFEBs) are designed to learn the residual mapping between noisy and clean images. The IFEB reformulates the initial skip connection of ResNet based on the implicit Euler discretization, providing both network interpretability and long-term memory. In IFEB, the multi-scale swin Transformer block (MSB) is designed as the implicit layer to capture spatial details and non-local contextual information at different scales. Additionally, a cross-layer feature fusion block (CLFF) is proposed to further improve feature reuse capabilities. Compared to existing denoising networks, the extensive experiments demonstrate the superior performance of our IMSNet in various image denoising tasks, and the flexibility in the practical applications with proposed light model on resource-restricted platforms such as consumer electronic devices. © 1975-2011 IEEE.

Federated Learning enables collaboratively model training among a number of distributed devices with the coordination of a centralized server, where each device alternatively performs local gradient computation and communication to the server. FL suffers from significant performance degradation due to the excessive communication delay between the server and devices, especially when the network bandwidth of these devices is limited, which is common in edge environments. Existing methods overlap the gradient computation and communication to hide the communication latency to accelerate the FL training. However, the overlapping can also lead to an inevitable gap between the local model in each device and the global model in the server that seriously restricts the convergence rate of learning process. To address this problem, we propose a new overlapping method for FL, AOCC-FL, which aligns the local model with the global model via calibrated compensation such that the communication delay can be hidden without deteriorating the convergence performance. Theoretically, we prove that AOCC-FL admits the same convergence rate as the non-overlapping method. On both simulated and testbed experiments, we show that AOCC-FL achieves a comparable convergence rate relative to the non-overlapping method while outperforming the state-of-the-art overlapping methods.
