Network intrusions have become a significant threat in recent years as a result of the increased demand of computer networks for critical systems. Intrusion detection system (IDS) has been widely deployed as a defense measure for computer…

RowHammer is a circuit-level DRAM vulnerability where repeatedly accessing (i.e., hammering) a DRAM row can cause bit flips in physically nearby rows. The RowHammer vulnerability worsens as DRAM cell size and cell-to-cell spacing shrink.…

Model binarization is an effective method of compressing neural networks and accelerating their inference process. However, a significant performance gap still exists between the 1-bit model and the 32-bit one. The empirical study shows…

Many approaches have evolved to enhance network attacks detection anomaly using SNMP-MIBs. Most of these approaches focus on machine learning algorithms with a lot of SNMP-MIB database parameters, which may consume most of hardware…

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are powerful tools for learning from graph-structured data, but their application to large graphs is hindered by computational costs. The need to process every neighbor for each node creates memory and…

Feature selection is a critical task in machine learning and statistics. However, existing feature selection methods either (i) rely on parametric methods such as linear or generalized linear models, (ii) lack theoretical false discovery…

Federated learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train machine learning models under the coordination of a central server, while maintaining privacy. However, the server cannot directly monitor the local training…

Binarized Neural Networks (BNNs) have recently attracted significant interest due to their computational efficiency. Concurrently, it has been shown that neural networks may be overly sensitive to "attacks" - tiny adversarial changes in the…

Breadth First Search (BFS) is a widely used approach for sampling large unknown Internet topologies. Its main advantage over random walks and other exploration techniques is that a BFS sample is a plausible graph on its own, and therefore…

This paper presents LM-Fix, a lightweight detection and rapid recovery framework for faults in large language models (LLMs). Existing integrity approaches are often heavy or slow for modern LLMs. LM-Fix runs a short test-vector pass and…

Aggressive memory density scaling causes modern DRAM devices to suffer from RowHammer, a phenomenon where rapidly activating a DRAM row can cause bit-flips in physically-nearby rows. Recent studies demonstrate that modern DRAM chips,…
