Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for configuring a computer for data similarity determination using Bregman divergence may include storing a data set having plural data pairs with one or more data points corresponding to one or more features and generating a trained input convex neural network (ICNN) using the data set, the ICNN having one or more parameters. Training the ICNN may include extracting one or more features for each piece of data in the first data pair, generating an empirical Bregman divergence for the first data pair, and computing one or more gradients between the one or more features within the first data pair using known target distances and the computed empirical Bregman divergence.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system for modeling correlation in a sourcing model. The system can include a processor configured to collect voting output from plural voting sources and store the voting output in memory. The system can include a correlation modeling module configured to retrieve at least two voting outputs from memory. In some embodiments each voting output is from a different voting source. The correlation modeling module can determine correlation among at least two voting sources by measuring consensus among the at least two voting sources using an agreement metric. The correlation modeling module can determine a degree of a first-order interaction among the at least two voting sources. The correlation modeling module can determine a degree of correlation among the at least two voting sources having a degree of first-order interaction.

Abstract: A system and method for transferring an adversarial attack involving generating a surrogate model having an architecture and a dataset that mirrors at least one aspect of a target model of a target module, wherein the surrogate model includes a plurality of classes. The method involves generating a masked version of the surrogate model having ewer classes than the surrogate model by randomly selecting at least one class of the plurality of classes for removal. The method involves attacking the masked surrogate model to create a perturbed sample. The method involves generalizing the perturbed sample for use with the target module. The method involves transferring the perturbed sample to the target module to alter an operating parameter of the target model.

Abstract: A method and system for cross-modal manifold alignment of different data domains includes determining for a shared embedding space a first embedding function for data of a first domain and a second embedding function for data of a second domain using a triplet loss, wherein triplets of the triplet loss include an anchor data point from the first, a positive and a negative data point from the second domain; creating a first mapping for the data of the first domain using the first embedding function in the shared embedding space; creating a second mapping for the data of the second domain using the second embedding function in the shared embedding space; and generating a cross-modal alignment for the data of the first domain and the data of the second domain.
