The paper proposes a new and systematic approach to the so-called black box group methods in computational group theory. As the starting point of our programme, we construct Frobenius maps on black box groups of untwisted Lie type in odd…
If a black box group is known to be isomorphic to an exceptional simple group of Lie type of (twisted) rank $>1$, other than any $^2F_4(q)$, over a field of known size, a Las Vegas algorithm is given to produce a constructive isomorphism.…
This paper is a compressed summary of some principal definitions and concepts in the approach to the black box algebra being developed by the authors. We suggest that black box algebra could be useful in cryptanalysis of homomorphic…
Given a global exponent $E$ for a black box group $\mathsf{Y}$ encrypting ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{F})$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is an unknown finite field of unknown odd characteristic, we construct, in probabilistic time polynomial in $\log E$, the…
We propose a new randomized ensemble technique with a provable security guarantee against black-box transfer attacks. Our proof constructs a new security problem for random binary classifiers which is easier to empirically verify and a…
Many deployed learned models are black boxes: given input, returns output. Internal information about the model, such as the architecture, optimisation procedure, or training data, is not disclosed explicitly as it might contain proprietary…
Black box systems for automated decision making, often based on machine learning over (big) data, map a user's features into a class or a score without exposing the reasons why. This is problematic not only for lack of transparency, but…
As machine learning black boxes are increasingly being deployed in domains such as healthcare and criminal justice, there is growing emphasis on building tools and techniques for explaining these black boxes in an interpretable manner. Such…
We briefly explain how to implement the morphisms in our paper ``Natural representations of black box groups encrypting $SL_2(\mathbb{F})$" and provide some examples.
Deep neural networks learn fragile "shortcut" features, rendering them difficult to interpret (black box) and vulnerable to adversarial attacks. This paper proposes semantic features as a general architectural solution to this problem. The…
In the literature on adversarial examples, white box and black box attacks have received the most attention. The adversary is assumed to have either full (white) or no (black) access to the defender's model. In this work, we focus on the…
It has been demonstrated that adversarial graphs, i.e., graphs with imperceptible perturbations added, can cause deep graph models to fail on node/graph classification tasks. In this paper, we extend adversarial graphs to the problem of…
For the black box groups $X$ encrypting ${\rm{PGL}}_2(q)$, $q$ odd, we propose an algorithm constructing a subgroup encrypting ${\rm{Sym}}_4$ and subfield subgroups of $X$. We also present the analogous algorithms for black box groups…
We discuss basic structural properties of finite black box groups. A special emphasis is made on the use of centralisers of involutions in probabilistic recognition of black box groups. In particular, we suggest an algorithm for finding the…
We present an approach to explain the decisions of black box models for image classification. While using the black box to label images, our explanation method exploits the latent feature space learned through an adversarial autoencoder.…
In this expository article we present an overview of the current state-of-the-art in post-quantum group-based cryptography. We describe several families of groups that have been proposed as platforms, with special emphasis in polycyclic…
Given a black box group $\mathsf{Y}$ encrypting $\rm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{F})$ over an unknown field $\mathbb{F}$ of unknown odd characteristic $p$ and a global exponent $E$ for $\mathsf{Y}$ (that is, an integer $E$ such that $\mathsf{y}^E=1$ for…
In the last years many accurate decision support systems have been constructed as black boxes, that is as systems that hide their internal logic to the user. This lack of explanation constitutes both a practical and an ethical issue. The…
Although counterfactual explanations are a popular approach to explain ML black-box classifiers, they are less widespread in NLP. Most methods find those explanations by iteratively perturbing the target document until it is classified…
Cryptographic systems are derived using units in group rings. Combinations of types of units in group rings give units not of any particular type. This includes cases of taking powers of units and products of such powers and adds the…
