A myriad of access control policy languages have been and continue to be proposed. The design of policy miners for each such language is a challenging task that has required specialized machine learning and combinatorial algorithms. We…
We introduce the problem of ranking with slot constraints, which can be used to model a wide range of application problems -- from college admission with limited slots for different majors, to composing a stratified cohort of eligible…
Inspired by the access control models of social network systems, Relationship-Based Access Control (ReBAC) was recently proposed as a general-purpose access control paradigm for application domains in which authorization must take into…
Consider a requester who wishes to crowdsource a series of identical binary labeling tasks to a pool of workers so as to achieve an assured accuracy for each task, in a cost optimal way. The workers are heterogeneous with unknown but fixed…
In a cloud computing environment, access control policy is an effective means of fortification cloud users and cloud resources services against security infringements. Based on analysis of current cloud computing security characteristics,…
With the rapid advances in computing and information technologies, traditional access control models have become inadequate in terms of capturing fine-grained, and expressive security requirements of newly emerging applications. An…
Today's process modeling languages often force the analyst or modeler to straightjacket real-life processes into simplistic or incomplete models that fail to capture the essential features of the domain under study. Conventional business…
Causal discovery studies the problem of mining causal relationships between variables from data, which is of primary interest in science. During the past decades, significant amount of progresses have been made toward this fundamental data…
Constraint-based pattern discovery is at the core of numerous data mining tasks. Patterns are extracted with respect to a given set of constraints (frequency, closedness, size, etc). In the context of sequential pattern mining, a large…
This paper offers several contributions for separation of duty (SoD) administration in role-based access control (RBAC) systems. We first introduce a new formal framework, based on business perspective, where SoD constraints are analyzed…
In many classification settings, the class of primary interest is underrepresented, leading to imbalanced data problems that arise in applications such as rare disease detection and fraud identification. In these contexts, identifying a…
Modern software systems rely on mining insights from business sensitive data stored in public clouds. A data breach usually incurs significant (monetary) loss for a commercial organization. Conceptually, cloud security heavily relies on…
In colored range counting (CRC), the input is a set of points where each point is assigned a ``color'' (or a ``category'') and the goal is to store them in a data structure such that the number of distinct categories inside a given query…
With rapid advances in computing systems, there is an increasing demand for more effective and efficient access control (AC) approaches. Recently, Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) approaches have been shown to be promising in…
The success of Constraint Programming relies partly on the global constraints and implementation of the associated filtering algorithms. Recently, new ideas emerged to improve these implementations in practice, especially regarding the all…
Current methods for data access control, especially regarding AI and AI automation, face unique challenges in ensuring appropriate data access. We introduce Integer-Based Access Control (IBAC), addressing the limitations of Role-Based…
This paper focuses on safety critical control with sector-bounded uncertainties at the plant input. The uncertainties can represent nonlinear and/or time-varying components. We propose a new robust control barrier function (RCBF) approach…
Smart contracts are susceptible to various security issues, among which access control (AC) vulnerabilities are particularly critical. While existing research has proposed multiple detection tools, the automatic and appropriate repair of AC…
We study a problem of information gathering in a social network with dynamically available sources and time varying quality of information. We formulate this problem as a restless multi-armed bandit (RMAB). In this problem, information…
The types of constraints encountered in black-box and simulation-based optimization problems differ significantly from those treated in nonlinear programming. We introduce a characterization of constraints to address this situation. We…
