Research on structure and defense of adversarial example in deep learning by Guanghan DUAN, Chunguang MA, Lei SONG, Peng WU

“…With the further promotion of deep learning technology in the fields of computer vision,network security and natural language processing,which has gradually exposed certain security risks.Existing deep learning algorithms can not effectively describe the essential characteristics of data or its inherent causal relationship.When the algorithm faces malicious input,it often fails to give correct judgment results.Based on the current security threats of deep learning,the adversarial example problem and its characteristics in deep learning applications were introduced,hypotheses on the existence of adversarial examples were summarized,classic adversarial example construction methods were reviewed and recent research status in different scenarios were summarized,several defense techniques in different processes were compared,and finally the development trend of adversarial example research were forecasted.…”

Interference detection and diversity suppression algorithm of OFDM system under partial-band jamming by Guo LI, Ni WEN, Fengkui GONG, Jian ZHANG, Sihan ZHANG

“…For the currently widely-used OFDM system, which greatly improved the communication performance under the condition of partial-band jamming, an interference detection algorithm based on FCVE and an interference suppression algorithm based on frequency diversity were proposed.The threshold factor formula of FCVE algorithm was derived theoretically, and the interference detection threshold was calculated by using the threshold factor and the variance of the received signal, so as to achieve the interference detection with high accuracy.The simulation results show that the proposed FCVE algorithm significantly improves the interference detection probability of the classical FCME algorithm under the condition of high signal to interference ratio (SIR).Further, the interference can be greatly suppressed based on the idea of frequency diversity with the result of interference detection.The simulation results show that the bit error rate of the system can be reduced by two orders of magnitude under the same SIR.…”

Receiver design of sparse Bayesian learning based MIMO-OFDM power line communication system by Xinrong LYU, Youming LI, Yongqing WU, Xiaobo TANG

“…The rich impulsive noise in the power line channel poses a huge challenge to the design of MIMO-OFDM transceiver.To solve this problem, a design scheme that can jointly estimate the channel and impulsive noise was proposed, which exploited the parametric sparsity of the classical multipath model and the sparsity of the time domain impulsive noise.In this scheme, the unknown channel model parameters and the impulsive noise were jointly regarded as a sparse vector.By observing the spatial correlation of MIMO system, a compressed sensing model based on multiple measurement vectors was constructed.The multiple response sparse Bayesian learning theory was introduced to jointly estimate the MIMO channel parameters and impulsive noise.The simulation results show that, compared with the traditional receiver scheme that considers MIMO channel estimation and impulsive noise suppression separately, the receiver proposed has a significant improvement in channel estimation performance and bit error rate performance.…”
