Fortifying AI Against Adversarial Threats
AI systems operate in complex, volatile environments, making robustness against adversarial attacks paramount. This section explores both the identification of vulnerabilities and the development of defensive strategies.
Vulnerability Type | Impact / Target | Research Contribution (Attack/Defense) |
---|---|---|
Poisoning Attacks | Social media influence, content dissemination | Wu et al. [22] (Attack mechanism demonstrated) |
Backdoor Attacks | Personalized Federated Learning | Ye et al. [25] (BapFL attack methodology) |
Software Vulnerabilities | Static warnings in C/C++ projects | Wen et al. [21] (Llm4sa for LLM-harnessed warning inspection) |
User Data Privacy | Social Recommendations | Cui et al. [4] (ID-SR for privacy-preserving recommendations) |
Ensuring AI Performance Across Diverse Data Distributions
AI models often fail when faced with data outside their training distribution. Addressing this "Out-of-Distribution (OOD)" problem is crucial for deploying AI in real-world, dynamic scenarios.

Building Equitable AI Systems
Fairness is a cornerstone of trustworthy AI, ensuring that systems treat individuals and groups without bias or discrimination. Research in this area focuses on measuring, mitigating, and evaluating fairness across diverse AI applications.
AI Application Area | Fairness Challenge Addressed | Proposed Solution/Approach |
---|---|---|
Classification Tasks | Group fairness measures, class imbalance | Analysis of probability mass functions [1], Adaptive priority weights [8] |
Feature Selection | Causal relationships, sensitive info leakage | FairCFS for fair feature selection [14] |
Knowledge Graphs | Multi-hop bias, entity-to-relation info | Framework to reduce bias and preserve info [3] |
Recommender Systems | Item attributes, user-sensitive data | New evaluation metrics, dual-side adversarial learning [15] |
Research Grant Topic Inference | Interdisciplinary imbalance | Selective interpolation method [23] |
GNNs with Attention | Prediction disparities among sensitive groups | Fairness-aware attention learning strategy [10] |
Demystifying AI: Enhancing Transparency and Interpretability
The "black box" nature of deep learning hinders its adoption in critical applications. Explainability research focuses on making AI's decision-making processes understandable and transparent to users and stakeholders.
Case Study: Unveiling the AI 'Black Box' for Critical Decisions
Deep learning models, despite their power, often lack transparency, making their application difficult in high-stake fields. This challenge is addressed through innovations that merge predictive accuracy with clear interpretability.
Researchers have developed methods such as combining rule-based and deep learning [13] for robust and explainable classification, and prototype-based self-explainable GNNs [6] that create clear patterns for predictions. Efforts extend to interpretable epidemic forecasting [9] and knowledge tracing models [26], ensuring that AI's powerful insights are also understandable and trustworthy.
