  • Patent number: 12632564
    Abstract: A system may be configured for implementing targeted attacks on deep reinforcement learning-based autonomous driving with learned visual patterns. In some examples, processing circuitry receives first input specifying an initial state for a driving environment and user configurable input specifying a target state. Processing circuitry may generate a representative dataset of the driving environment by performing multiple rollouts of the vehicle through the driving environment, including performing an action for the vehicle from the initial state with variable strength noise added to determine a next state for each rollout resulting from the action. Processing circuitry may train an artificial intelligence model to output a next predicted state based on the representative dataset as training input. In such an example, processing circuitry outputs from the artificial intelligence model, an attack plan against the autonomous driving agent to achieve the target state from the initial state.

  • Patent number: 12518203
    Abstract: A system and associated methods for decentralized attribution of GAN models is disclosed. Given a group of models derived from the same dataset and published by different users, attributability is achieved when a public verification service associated with each model (a linear classifier) returns positive only for outputs of that model. Each model is parameterized by keys distributed by a registry. The keys are computed from first-order sufficient conditions for decentralized attribution. The keys are orthogonal or opposite to each other and belong to a subspace dependent on the data distribution and the architecture of the generative model.

  • Publication number: 20250142436
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a UE in a connected state with a cell of a first radio access technology (RAT) type may trigger a UE initiated inter-RAT redirection procedure to a neighboring cell of a different, higher priority level, RAT type if the network does not configure the UE to perform connected measurements for candidate neighbor cells of the higher priority level RAT type. A UE may receive an indication of candidate neighbor cells of a higher priority level RAT type. The UE may perform UE initiated measurements on the indicated candidate neighbor cells of the higher priority level RAT type. The UE may trigger an inter-RAT redirection procedure to one of the neighbor cells of the higher priority level RAT if the UE finds a suitable cell based on the UE initiated measurements.
