SUMMARY:Human-Centric AI & Security Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nEquipped with smartphones\, tablets\, and virtual reality headsets\, we can now perform a wide variety of tasks from virtually anywhere. However\, this newfound freedom and flexibility come with its own challenges\, particularly in terms of personal privacy. One emerging threat is sophisticated machine learning (ML) attacks that break privacy assumptions by extracting previously undetectable patterns carried by our daily actions. \nIn this talk\, I will discuss two of our recent projects on identifying and mitigating real-world privacy threats. First\, we identify a general keystroke inference attack in the physical world\, where the attacker does not rely on any prior knowledge or labeled data on the target user or their device. Just by analyzing a 10-min video of the target’s typing hands from meters away\, the attacker can extract over 90% of their typed content. This is done by applying a self-supervised learning pipeline to the video\, which curates labeled data from the video and train DNN models to achieve robust inference results. We then extend this attack into virtual reality. By screen-recording the target’s avatar for 10 min\, the attacker can also recover the typed content. This is made possible by the addition of transformer models designed to mitigate digital noise in avatar motion capture. Finally\, I will also discuss ongoing projects that explore new forms of privacy attacks in VR systems. \nBio:\nZhuolin Yang is a final year PhD at SAND Lab\, University of Chicago. She researches security and privacy issues related to user interfaces. Specifically\, she identifies and mitigates new attacks made possible by customized ML solutions. Her work has produced publications at top CS conferences (USENIX Security\, CHI) and media coverages by MIT Technology Review and New Scientist.

SUMMARY:The Green Economy and a nature positive approach for Australia
DESCRIPTION:Nature has tremendous importance to the global economy\, and organisations are increasingly being asked to take responsibility for their nature-related impacts and dependencies. \n\nRecent global ambition has embraced the concept of ‘Nature Positive’\, but what does this mean for an organisation\, and how can the public\, private and research communities work together to scale actions to meaningfully address declines in biodiversity at a global scale? \nAn Expert panel will explore the nature positive approach\, the models and frameworks available and the next steps towards the sustainable implementation of natural capital accounting (NCA); a critical approach for evaluating the economic value of natural resources and ecosystem services. \nDial into webinar to:\n\ngain valuable insights from ecosystem experts who are driving the development of nature positive strategy\nexplore how businesses and organisations are successfully integrating natural capital metrics to improve sustainability and operational efficiency\nunderstand the challenges and responses required to accelerate adoption of nature positive practices.\n\nIn conversation with:\n\nDr Dan Metcalfe – Director\, Environment\, CSIRO\nMs Nicole Yazbek-Martin – Head of Taxonomy and Natural Capital\, Australian Sustainable Finance Institute\nDr Libby Pinkard – Research Director\, Living Landscapes Program\, CSIRO\nMr Phil Cryle – Principal Natural Capital\, BHP
