• Abstract: This paper compares two deep reinforcement learning approaches for cyber security in software defined networking. Neural Episodic Control to Deep Q-Network has been implemented and compared with that of Double Deep Q-Networks. The two algorithms are implemented in a format similar to that of a zero-sum game. A two-tailed T-test analysis is done on the two game results containing the amount of turns taken for the defender to win. Another comparison is done on the game scores of the agents in the respective games. The analysis is done to determine which algorithm is the best in game performer and whether there is a significant difference between them, demonstrating if one would have greater preference over the other. It was found that there is no significant statistical difference between the two approaches.

  Authorship Verification (AV) is a text classification task concerned with inferring whether a candidate text has been written by one specific author or by someone else. It has been shown that many AV systems are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, where a malicious author actively tries to fool the classifier by either concealing their writing style, or by imitating the style of another author.

  We introduce a novel method for backdoor detection that extracts features from pre-trained DNN's weights.

Our method outperforms the competing algorithms in terms of efficiency and is more accurate, helping to ensure the safe application of deep learning and AI.

  Learning from repeated play in a fixed zero-sum game is a classic problem in game theory and online learning. We develop a single parameter-free algorithm that simultaneously enjoys favorable guarantees under three performance measures. Our algorithm is based on a two-layer structure with a meta-algorithm learning over a group of black-box base-learners satisfying a certain property.

  We study multi-objective reinforcement learning (RL) where an agent's reward is represented as a vector. In settings where an agent competes against opponents, its performance is measured by the distance of its average return vector to a target set. We develop statistically and computationally efficient algorithms to approach the associated target set.

  We consider a repeated sequential game between a learner, who plays first, and an opponent who responds to the chosen action. We propose a novel algorithm for the learner when playing against an adversarial sequence of opponents. Our results include algorithm's regret guarantees that depend on the regularity of the opponent's response.
