New submissions to the thesis/dissertation collections are added automatically as they are received from the Graduate School. Currently, the Graduate School deposits all theses and dissertations from a given semester after the official graduation date. This means that there may be up to a 4 month delay in the appearance of a give thesis/dissertation in DRUM

    Adversarial Robustness and Fairness in Deep Learning
    (2023) Cherepanova, Valeriia; Goldstein, Tom; Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computation; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    While deep learning has led to remarkable advancements across various domains, the widespread adoption of neural network models has brought forth significant challenges such as vulnerability to adversarial attacks and model unfairness. These challenges have profound implications for privacy, security, and societal impact, requiring thorough investigation and development of effective mitigation strategies. In this work we address both these challenges. We study adversarial robustness of deep learning models and explore defense mechanisms against poisoning attacks. We also explore the sources of algorithmic bias and evaluate existing bias mitigation strategies in neural networks. Through this work, we aim to contribute to the understanding and enhancement of both adversarial robustness and fairness of deep learning systems.
