Uniform confidence bands for functions are widely used in empirical analysis. A variety of simple implementation methods (most notably multiplier bootstrap) have been proposed and theoretically justified. However, an implementation over a…
As large language models (LLMs) become ubiquitous, parameter-efficient fine-tuning methods and safety-first defenses have proliferated rapidly. However, the number of approaches and their recent increase have resulted in diverse…
Industrial plants suffer from a high degree of complexity and incompatibility in their communication infrastructure, caused by a wild mix of proprietary technologies. This prevents transformation towards Industry 4.0 and the Industrial…
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) rely on sensor feedback to keep safety-critical processes within operational limits. This research presents a hardware-root-of-trust that embeds a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) at the measurement…
Linux Seccomp is widely used by the program developers and the system maintainers to secure the operating systems, which can block unused syscalls for different applications and containers to shrink the attack surface of the operating…
Companies adopt agile methodologies and DevOps to facilitate efficient development and deployment of software-intensive products. This, in turn, introduces challenges in relation to security standard compliance traditionally following a…
Single-event upset (SEU) fault tolerance for systems-on-chip (SoCs) in radiation-heavy environments is often addressed by architectural fault-tolerance approaches protecting individual SoC components (e.g., cores, memories) in isolation.…
Software vulnerability detection can be formulated as a binary classification problem that determines whether a given code snippet contains security defects. Existing multimodal methods typically fuse Natural Code Sequence (NCS)…
Background: Helm is a package manager that allows defining, installing, and upgrading applications with Kubernetes (K8s), a popular container orchestration platform. A Helm chart is a collection of files describing all dependencies,…
Accurately representing the complex linkages and inherent uncertainties included in huge datasets is still a major difficulty in the field of data clustering. We address these issues with our proposed Unified Neutrosophic Clustering…
Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are widely used in the central signal processing design of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) as acceleration hardware. The frequency domain acceleration search (FDAS) module is an important part of the…

Ubiquitous systems with End-Edge-Cloud architecture are increasingly being used in healthcare applications. Federated Learning (FL) is highly useful for such applications, due to silo effect and privacy preserving. Existing FL approaches…
This paper proposes an uncertain data clustering approach to quantitatively analyze the complexity of prefabricated construction components through the integration of quality performance-based measures with associated engineering design…
Recent hardware acceleration advances have enabled powerful specialized accelerators for finite element computations, spiking neural network inference, and sparse tensor operations. However, existing approaches face fundamental limitations:…
One of the most common defense strategies against Byzantine clients in federated learning (FL) is to employ a robust aggregator mechanism that makes the training more resilient. While many existing Byzantine robust aggregators provide…
Do stock safety-aligned language models and their uncensored or abliterated derivatives behave differently when run as autonomous security agents? Single-turn refusal benchmarks cannot answer this question: security agents must inspect…
Software vulnerabilities remain a significant risk factor in achieving security objectives within software development organizations. This is especially true where either proprietary or open-source software (OSS) is included in the…
There has been significant recent interest in devising verification techniques for learning-enabled controllers (LECs) that manage safety-critical systems. Given the opacity and lack of interpretability of the neural policies that govern…
For reasons of both performance and energy efficiency, high-performance computing (HPC) hardware is becoming increasingly heterogeneous. The OpenCL framework supports portable programming across a wide range of computing devices and is…
