Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for detecting adversarial attacks. A machine learning (ML) system processes the input into and output of a ML model using an adversarial detection module that does not include a direct external interface. The adversarial detection module includes a detection model that generates a score indicative of whether the input is adversarial using, e.g., a neural fingerprinting technique or a comparison of features extracted by a surrogate ML model to an expected feature distribution for the output of the ML model. In turn, the adversarial score is compared to a predefined threshold for raising an adversarial flag. Appropriate remedial measures, such as notifying a user, may be taken when the adversarial score satisfies the threshold and raises the adversarial flag.

The first vehicle may be a reference vehicle. A distance function of the vectors may be calculated in order to establish a similarity score indicating the degree of similarity between the designs of the two vehicles.

Abstract: Kits, diagnostic systems and methods are provided, which measure the distribution of colors of skin features by comparison to calibrated colors which are co-imaged with the skin feature. The colors on the calibration template (calibrator) are selected to represent the expected range of feature colors under various illumination and capturing conditions. The calibrator may also comprise features with different forms and size for calibrating geometric parameters of the skin features in the captured images. Measurements may be enhanced by monitoring over time changes in the distribution of colors, by measuring two and three dimensional geometrical parameters of the skin feature and by associating the data with medical diagnostic parameters. Thus, simple means for skin diagnosis and monitoring are provided which simplify and improve current dermatologic diagnostic procedures.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed for methods and mechanisms to address Base Transceiver Stations (BTSes) attempting to hijack Mobile Stations (MSes) in wireless communication networks. In some example methods, a record having values for a set of features associated with an MS and a BTS of a wireless communication net may be processed.

The set of features may include at least one feature based on a measured power of the BTS.
