Functional requirements and design of simulation cloud platform for data center by Junwen LIU, Jiaxing XUAN

“…Electric power information system is related with the safe operation of grid.To ensure the running stability of information system,comprehensive test was needed to conduct before the system is running.Considering actual needs of the power industry at present,it's necessary to establish independent environment to conduct function of in-formation system and non-functional test so as to achieve effective operation and maintenance of information system,finding loopholes and improving robustness of the system.Based on the analysis of development of cloud data center simulation platform,the research studies construction technology,which applies to the data center cloud platform and puts forward deployment implementation plan targeted to functional requirements of platform.In this way,the guid-ance role of construction was achieved on the later cloud platform.…”

Membership inference attacks against transfer learning for generalized model by Jinyin CHEN, Wenchang SHANGGUAN, Jingjing ZHANG, Haibin ZHENG, Yayu ZHENG, Xuhong ZHANG

“…For the problem of poor performance of exciting membership inference attack (MIA) when facing the transfer learning model that is generalized, the MIA for the transfer learning model that is generalized was first systematically studied, the anomaly detection was designed to obtain vulnerable data samples, and MIA was carried out against individual samples.Finally, the proposed method was tested on four image data sets, which shows that the proposed MIA has great attack performance.For example, on the Flowers102 classifier migrated from VGG16 (pretraining with Caltech101), the proposed MIA achieves 83.15% precision, which reveals that in the environment of transfer learning, even without access to the teacher model, the MIA for the teacher model can be achieved by visiting the student model.…”
