Machine Learning als Schlüsseltechnologie für Digitalisierung: Wie funktioniert maschinelles Lernen?
(2019)
Apache Hadoop is a well-known open-source framework for storing and processing huge amounts of data. This paper shows the usage of the framework within a project of the university in cooperation with a semiconductor company. The goal of this project was to supplement the existing data landscape by the facilities of storing and analyzing the data on a new Apache Hadoop based platform.
Harnessing the overall benefits of the latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) requires the extensive collaboration of academia and industry. These collaborations promote innovation and growth while enforcing the practical usefulness of newer technologies in real life. The purpose of this article is to outline the challenges faced during cross-collaboration between academia and industry. These challenges are also inspected with the help of an ongoing project titled “Quality Assurance of Machine Learning Applications” (Q-AMeLiA), in which three universities cooperate with five industry partners to make the product risk of AI-based products visible. Further, we discuss the hurdles and the key challenges in machine learning (ML) technology transformation from academia to industry based on robustness, simplicity, and safety. These challenges are an outcome of the lack of common standards, metrics, and missing regulatory considerations when state-of-the-art (SOTA) technology is developed in academia. The use of biased datasets involves ethical concerns that might lead to unfair outcomes when the ML model is deployed in production. The advancement of AI in small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) requires more in terms of common tandardization of concepts rather than algorithm breakthroughs. In this paper, in addition to the general challenges, we also discuss domain specific barriers for five different domains i.e., object detection, hardware benchmarking, continual learning, action recognition, and industrial process automation, and highlight the steps necessary for successfully managing the cross-sectoral collaborations between academia and industry.
Recently, RobustBench (Croce et al. 2020) has become a widely recognized benchmark for the adversarial robustness of image
classification networks. In it’s most commonly reported sub-task, RobustBench evaluates and ranks the adversarial robustness of trained neural networks on CIFAR10 under AutoAttack (Croce and Hein 2020b) with l∞ perturbations limited to ϵ = 8/255. With leading scores of the currently best performing models of around 60% of the baseline, it is fair to characterize this benchmark to be quite challenging. Despite it’s general acceptance in recent literature, we aim to foster discussion about the suitability of RobustBench as a key indicator for robustness which could be generalized to practical applications. Our line of argumentation against this is two-fold and supported by excessive experiments presented in this paper: We argue that I) the alternation of data by AutoAttack with l∞, ϵ = 8/255 is unrealistically strong, resulting in close to perfect detection rates of adversarial samples even by simple detection algorithms and human observers.
We also show that other attack methods are much harder to detect while achieving similar success rates. II) That results on low resolution data sets like CIFAR10 do not generalize well to higher resolution images as gradient based attacks appear to become even more detectable with increasing resolutions.

Estimating the Robustness of Classification Models by the Structure of the Learned Feature-Space
(2022)
Over the last decade, the development of deep image classification networks has mostly been driven by the search for the best performance in terms of classification accuracy on standardized benchmarks like ImageNet. More recently, this focus has been expanded by the notion of model robustness, \ie the generalization abilities of models towards previously unseen changes in the data distribution. While new benchmarks, like ImageNet-C, have been introduced to measure robustness properties, we argue that fixed testsets are only able to capture a small portion of possible data variations and are thus limited and prone to generate new overfitted solutions. To overcome these drawbacks, we suggest to estimate the robustness of a model directly from the structure of its learned feature-space. We introduce robustness indicators which are obtained via unsupervised clustering of latent representations from a trained classifier and show very high correlations to the model performance on corrupted test data.
The present work ties in with the problem of bicycle road assessment that is currently done using expensive special measuring vehicles. Our alternative approach for road condition assessment is to mount a sensor device on a bicycle which sends accelerometer and gyroscope data via WiFi to a classification server. There, a prediction model determines road type and condition based on the sensor data. For the classification task, we compare different machine learning methods with each other, whereby validation accuracies of 99% can be achieved with deep residual networks such as InceptionTime. The main contribution of this work with respect to comparable work is that we achieve excellent accuracies on a realistic dataset classifying road conditions into nine distinct classes that are highly relevant for practice.
Jeder Mensch ist ständig unfreiwillig von einer Flut akustischer Reize umgeben. Diese Situation stellt für Menschen mit Hörverlust eine besondere Herausforderung dar. Menschen mit Hörverlust hören durch Hörgeräte zwar alles verstärkt, jedoch stellt sich die Frage, ob ein Hörgerät lediglich eine einfache Verstärkung von Schallwellen ist oder ob es darüber hinausgehende Funktionen bieten kann.
Die vorliegende Thesis widmet sich der akustischen Szenenanalyse in Hörgeräten, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Integration von Machine Learning liegt. Das Ziel besteht darin, eine automatisierte Erkennung und Anpassung an verschiedene akustische Situationen zu ermöglichen. Die Arbeit konzentriert sich insbesondere auf die Analyse grundlegender Szenarien wie: Sprache in Ruhe, absolute Ruhe, Sprache in Störgeräuschen und Störgeräuschen in Audiodaten.
Many commonly well-performing convolutional neural network models have shown to be susceptible to input data perturbations, indicating a low model robustness. Adversarial attacks are thereby specifically optimized to reveal model weaknesses, by generating small, barely perceivable image perturbations that flip the model prediction. Robustness against attacks can be gained for example by using adversarial examples during training, which effectively reduces the measurable model attackability. In contrast, research on analyzing the source of a model’s vulnerability is scarce. In this paper, we analyze adversarially trained, robust models in the context of a specifically suspicious network operation, the downsampling layer, and provide evidence that robust models have learned to downsample more accurately and suffer significantly less from aliasing than baseline models.
