HO-FMN: Hyperparameter Optimization for Fast Minimum-Norm Attacks

HO-FMN: Hyperparameter Optimization for Fast Minimum-Norm Attacks

arXiv:2407.08806v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient-based attacks are a primary tool to evaluate robustness of machine-learning models. However, many attacks tend to provide overly-optimistic evaluations as they use fixed loss functions, optimizers, step-size schedulers, and default hyperparameters. In this work, we tackle these limitations by proposing a parametric variation of the well-known fast minimum-norm attack algorithm, whose loss, optimizer, step-size scheduler, and hyperparameters can be dynamically adjusted. We re-evaluate 12 robust models, showing that our attack finds smaller adversarial perturbations without requiring any additional tuning. This also enables reporting adversarial robustness as a function of the perturbation budget, providing a…

DG-PIC: Domain Generalized Point-In-Context Learning for Point Cloud Understanding

DG-PIC: Domain Generalized Point-In-Context Learning for Point Cloud Understanding

arXiv:2407.08801v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent point cloud understanding research suffers from performance drops on unseen data, due to the distribution shifts across different domains. While recent studies use Domain Generalization (DG) techniques to mitigate this by learning domain-invariant features, most are designed for a single task and neglect the potential of testing data. Despite In-Context Learning (ICL) showcasing multi-task learning capability, it usually relies on high-quality context-rich data and considers a single dataset, and has rarely been studied in point cloud understanding. In this paper, we introduce a novel, practical, multi-domain multi-task setting, handling multiple domains and multiple tasks…

Trump says it’s great he got such a nice photo after being shot at because ‘usually you have to die to have an iconic picture’

Trump says it’s great he got such a nice photo after being shot at because ‘usually you have to die to have an iconic picture’

Former President Donald Trump, who was seen pumping his fist in the air after he got shot at during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, said that he was glad he didn't have to die for an iconic picture."A lot of people say it's the most iconic photo they've ever seen," Trump said to the New York Post on Sunday. "They're right, and I didn't die. Usually, you have to die to have an iconic picture."He added: "I just wanted to keep speaking, but I just got shot."

The first Olympic Esports Games will take place in Saudi Arabia in 2025

The International Olympic Committee () has that the inaugural edition of the Olympic Esports Games will take place in in 2025 as part of a 12-year partnership with the country's National Olympic Committee. The host city, venue(s) and dates are yet to be determined as are the games that will be included and the qualification process for each.The IOC says that international federations and national Olympic committees that are already involved in a digital version of their sport and esports in general will be its first options for partners. The organization took a similar approach to a trial event ,…

Differences Between Edge Stack and Emissary: A Breakdown

One of our new segments, Community Corner, features weekly deep dives into common questions we get in our Community across our products: Edge Stack, Telepresence, and Blackbird. As one of the core members of our customer team, one of the most common questions I see revolves around the key differences between our open-source offering, Emissary-Ingress, and our commercial product, Edge Stack API Gateway. Watch Instead of ReadThe TL/DR: Edge Stack is Ambassador’s licensed API Gateway. It’s a closed-source product that has been adopted by companies in various industries around the world to manage traffic to their cloud-based services.Emissary-Ingress is an…

PID Accelerated Temporal Difference Algorithms

PID Accelerated Temporal Difference Algorithms

arXiv:2407.08803v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon tasks, which have a large discount factor, pose a challenge for most conventional reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms. Algorithms such as Value Iteration and Temporal Difference (TD) learning have a slow convergence rate and become inefficient in these tasks. When the transition distributions are given, PID VI was recently introduced to accelerate the convergence of Value Iteration using ideas from control theory. Inspired by this, we introduce PID TD Learning and PID Q-Learning algorithms for the RL setting in which only samples from the environment are available. We give theoretical analysis of their convergence and…

The Kremlin is pushing a MAGA talking point that Biden’s administration is to blame for the Trump assassination attempt

"We don't think at all and don't believe that the attempt to eliminate the presidential candidate Trump was organized by the present power," Dmitry Peskov told reporters, per Russian state media outlet TASS."But it is the atmosphere that has been created by this administration during the political struggle, the atmosphere around the candidate Trump, prompted what America is facing today," he continued.On Saturday, Trump was left wounded after a gunman tried to shoot him during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania."I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear," Trump wrote in a Truth Social…
