Title: Reconstructing a Fragmented Face from a Cryptographic Identification Protocol
Authors: Andy Luong, Michael Gerbush, Brent Waters, Kristen Grauman
Abstract: Secure Computation of Face Identification (SCiFI) [20]is a recently developed secure face recognition system that ensures the list of faces it can identify (e.g., a terrorist watch list) remains private. In this work, we study the consequences of malformed input attacks on the system-from both a security and computer vision standpoint. In particular, we present 1) a cryptographic attack that allows dishonest user to undetectably obtain a coded representation of faces on the list, and 2) a visualization approach that exploits this breach, turning the lossy recovered codes into human-identifiable face sketches. We evaluate our approach on two challenging datasets, with face identification tasks given to a computer and human subjects. Whereas prior work considered security in the setting of honest in-puts and protocol execution, the success of our approach underscores the risk posed by malicious adversaries to to-days automatic face recognition systems.

Title: Online Advertising and its Security and Privacy Concerns
Authors: Angelia, Davar Pishva
Abstract: Commercial advertising has greatly benefitted from Internet services and online advertising can even be considered as the foundation of web economy. However, despite the availability of many books on how to create, use and make profit from online advertisement; there is little in-depth study on its true nature, security and privacy concerns. Through this research, the authors were able to establish an in-depth understanding of online advertising by collecting and analyzing numerous data on online advertising, with the hope that it could serve as a basis for further study on the field. The authors have also examined the security and privacy concerns of online advertising and the various gimmicks used to victimize innocent people. On the positive side, the paper explains the attractiveness of free online advertising services and the mechanism though which website owners profit from hosting online advertisements despite the fact that neither advertisers nor users pay for the services. On the negative side, the paper shows how online advertising hosts could be victimized by some shroud users for their money making purposes by continuous clicking of online advertisements without any intention of purchase. It also cites cases in which some website owners have marketed users_ private information behind the scene. The paper concludes by highlighting pros and cons of online advertising, Le., despite its numerous advantages, such as efficiency and range, it presents many dangers to advertisers, providers, website owners, and users.

Title: Domain Adaptive Object Detection
Authors: Fatemeh Mirrashed, Vlad I Morariu, Behjat Siddiquie, Rogerio S Feris, Larry S Davis
Abstract: We study the use of domain adaptation and transfer learning techniques as part of a framework for adaptive object detection. Unlike recent applications of domain adaptation work in computer vision, which generally focus on image classification, we explore the problem of extreme class imbalance present when performing domain adaptation for object detection. The main difficulty caused by this imbalance is that test images contain millions or billions of negative image sub windows but just a few image sub windows containing positive instances, which makes it difficult to adapt to changes in the positive classes present new do-mains by simple techniques such as random sampling. We propose an initial approach to addressing this problem and apply our technique to vehicle detection in a challenging urban surveillance dataset, demonstrating the performance of our approach with various amounts of supervision, including the fully unsupervised case.

Title: Internet Science: a Manifesto
Author: Kave Salamatian
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to describe a new emerging science: Internet science. This paper argues that cur-rent Internet is a direct by-product of Shannon’s Information theory and its master thesis. After that I attempt a general and generic definition of a network and discuss the different alternatives. This discussion results in defining a network as asset of distributed actors cooperating for exchanging information. Based on this definition, I describe how cooperation in networks happens at two conceptual levels: on the structure and the growth of the network and on the information exchange (or forwarding). After describing a potential approach to understand the growth of a network as resulting from an iterative prisoner’s dilemma game, I explained how forwarding cooperation can be divided into three classes: full cooperation, selfishness and non-rational cases. This discussion opens a discussion on the need to develop a new economical theory for understanding networks and information exchange.

Title: Clinical Information Systems in Private Hospitals
Author: Aini Aman
Abstract: With the tremendous developments in Information Technology (IT), many organizations in private sectors use IT to transform their services and operation. Like any other sectors, the health sector has been benefited from the adoption of IT in transforming their services for society well-being. The applications of IT have greatly improved accessibility, quality and cost-effectiveness of health care. Clinical Information Systems (CIS) are one of the examples of the applications of IT in healthcare. CIS are computer applications that support the operations of clinicians engaged in providing care to patients. However, CIS does not always improve the outcomes and performance of the health professionals, but might bring about negative impacts on their performance and practices. Studies on medical errors have shown that errors in healthcare and medicine are not rare and may bring about severe harm to patients. This paper aims to understand the use of CIS in hospitals and their impact on patient safety. Using interviews with medical practitioners in private hospitals in Malaysia, the findings provide insights for system developers and hospital managers on the usability of CIS to ensure the delivery of better patient care since error reduction is one of the dimensions of health service quality.
