Zu den ATHENE Distinguished Lectures sind etablierte nationale und internationale Cybersecurity-Expert*innen gelade, die Einblicke in ihre neuesten Foschungsergebnisse geben.
Die Lectures finden meist hybrid (vor Ort am Fraunhofer SIT in Darmstadt) statt, so dass auch die Möglichkeit besteht, sich nach dem Vortrag bei leckeren Snacks und Getränken persönlich mit den wichtigsten Akteuren der Cybersicherheit zu treffen und auszutauschen. Die Vortragssprache ist Englisch.
Die ATHENE Distinguished Lecture Series wird organisiert von Prof. Haya Shulman, ATHENE | Goethe-Universität Frankfurt | Fraunhofer SIT.
Am 12.09. spricht Konrad Rieck von der TU Berlin
Vortrag: When Papers Choose their Reviewers: Adversarial Machine Learning in Conference Management Systems
Abstract:
The number of papers submitted to scientific conferences is steadily rising in many disciplines. To handle this growth, systems for automatic paper-reviewer assignments are increasingly used during the reviewing process. These systems employ statistical topic models to characterize the papers' content and automate their assignment to reviewers. In this talk, we invesitgate the security of this automation and introduce a new attack that modifies a given paper so that it selects its own reviewers. Our attack is based on a novel optimization strategy that fools the topic model with unobtrusive changes to the paper's content. In an empirical evaluation with a (simulated) conference, our attack successfully selects and removes reviewers, while the tampered papers remain plausible and often indistinguishable from innocuous submissions.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
