Achieving Robust Model Aggregation with Minimum Privacy Leakage for Federated Learning

This article investigates and implements the theory behind a recent IEEE paper released in 2024 which formalizes a novel security notion of aggregating the statistics of users' updates to provide a general framework utilizing LCC and distributed ZKPs for robust aggregation satisfying privacy concerns.

Grammatical Learning & Generation via Hidden Markov Model Filtering, Smoothing, & Inference

For a computer to learn how and when words are organized within a sentence, it must learn to model the temporal organization of grammatical representations of words (e.g. nouns, verbs, and adjectives) and the inter-dependent probabilities by which they are realized.

Semantic Context & Analogy Prediction in Reviews via word2vec

We want to study in-detail all functionalities of the skip-gram word2vec model and implement the architecture on a corpus of restaurant reviews, with the goal of creating an embedding space for words and testing the reliability of the generated space to complete analogies.

EEG/MEG Signal Processing for Successive Neural Network Control

Although EEG/MEG signals exhibit notoriously low SNR, it is possible to remove much of the different sources of noise corrupting our target signals via our multi-stage processing pipeline, such that our neural network is able to optimally classify and execute further control based on these signals.

Breast Cancer Diagnosis Predictions via Logistic Regression

Where does the logistic regression model along with all of its components come from? Is it a robust model for decision making? We will investigate these questions, implement the model, and evaluate its capability to detect cancerous cells given physical tissue measurements.

California Median Housing Price Prediction via Regression & More

Often there are useful variables not directly given in a data set which can be exploited, and sometimes there are variables which offer negligible gains. After analyzing our data, we want to derive the classic linear regression model and evaluate its robustness against other classic A.I. methods.

Adversarial Attacks, Training, & Randomized Smoothing for Increased Model Robustness

Creating adversarial examples from a given training set is a good way to increase the robustness of your A.I. model, but on its own, it does not lead to any accuracy guarantees. Randomized smoothing, however, does offer such guarantees.
