论文摘要
储层计算是预测湍流的有力工具，其简单的架构具有处理大型系统的计算效率。然而，其实现通常需要完整的状态向量测量和系统非线性知识。我们使用非线性投影函数将系统测量扩展到高维空间，然后将其输入到储层中以获得预测。我们展示了这种储层计算网络在时空混沌系统上的应用，该系统模拟了湍流的若干特征。我们表明，使用径向基函数作为非线性投影器，即使只有部分观测并且不知道控制方程，也能稳健地捕捉复杂的系统非线性。最后，我们表明，当测量稀疏、不完整且带有噪声，甚至控制方程变得不准确时，我们的网络仍然可以产生相当准确的预测，从而为实际湍流系统的无模型预测铺平了道路。
Attacks on machine learning models have been, since their conception, a very persistent and evasive issue resembling an endless cat-and-mouse game. One major variant of such attacks is poisoning attacks which can indirectly manipulate an ML model. It has been observed over the years that the majority of proposed effective defense models are only effective when an attacker is not aware of them being employed. In this paper, we show that the attack-agnostic De-Pois defense is hardly an exception to that rule. In fact, we demonstrate its vulnerability to the simplest White-Box and Black-Box attacks by an attacker that knows the structure of the De-Pois defense model. In essence, the De-Pois defense relies on a critic model that can be used to detect poisoned data before passing it to the target model. In our work, we break this poison-protection layer by replicating the critic model and then performing a composed gradient-sign attack on both the critic and target models simultaneously -- allowing us to bypass the critic firewall to poison the target model.
