Computer security is traditionally about the protection of technology, whereas trust and safety efforts focus on preventing technology abuse from harming people. In this talk, I'll explore the interplay between […]
ABSTRACT: As deep learning systems improve, their applicability to critical domains is hampered because of a lack of transparency. Post-hoc explanations attempt to address this concern but they provide no […]
Denoising diffusion models represent a recent emerging topic in computer vision, demonstrating impressive results in generative modeling. A diffusion model is a deep generative model that is based on two […]
We are at a transformational junction in computing, in the midst of an explosion in capabilities of foundational AI models that may soon match or exceed typical human abilities for […]
ABSTRACT: In recent years, foundation models—large pretrained models that can be adapted for a wide range of tasks—have achieved state-of-the-art performance on a variety of tasks. While the pretrained models […]
ABSTRACT: As the sizes of Large Language Models (LLMs) continue to grow exponentially, it becomes imperative to explore novel computing paradigms that can address the dual challenge of scaling these […]
ABSTRACT: We propose and demonstrate a novel approach to training image classification models based on large collections of images with limited labels. We take advantage of availability of radiology reports […]
As 5G takes to the airwaves, we now turn our imagination to the next generation of wireless technology. The promise of this technology has created an international race to innovate, […]
Protecting secrets within computer systems is a central mission of cryptography. Program obfuscation, which scrambles computer code without harming its functionality, is an immensely powerful and versatile tool for accomplishing […]
ABSTRACT: Machine learning has been increasingly deployed for high-stakes decisions that deeply impact people’s lives. My research focuses on developing interpretable algorithms and pipelines to ensure the safe and efficient utilization […]
