• Abstract: Robotics, automation, and related Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have become pervasive bringing in concerns related to security, safety, accuracy, and trust. With growing dependency on physical robots that work in close proximity to humans, the security of these systems is becoming increasingly important to prevent cyber-attacks that could lead to privacy invasion, critical operations sabotage, and bodily harm. The current shortfall of professionals who can defend such systems demands development and integration of such a curriculum. This course description includes details about seven self-contained and adaptive modules on "AI security threats against pervasive robotic systems". Topics include: 1) Introduction, examples of attacks, and motivation; 2) - Robotic AI attack surfaces and penetration testing; 3) - Attack patterns and security strategies for input sensors; 4) - Training attacks and associated security strategies; 5) - Inference attacks and associated security strategies; 6) - Actuator attacks and associated security strategies; and 7) - Ethics of AI, robotics, and cybersecurity.

• Towards Guaranteed Safe AI: A Framework for Ensuring Robust and Reliable AI Systems [88.80306881112313]
  We will introduce and define a family of approaches to AI safety, which we will refer to as guaranteed safe (GS) AI. The core feature of these approaches is that they aim to produce AI systems which are equipped with high-assurance quantitative safety guarantees. We outline a number of approaches for creating each of these three core components, describe the main technical challenges, and suggest a number of potential solutions to them.
