Keynote: Learning, reasoning, optimisation: Connections, complementarity and chances

Holger Hoos (Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS), The Netherlands and University of British Columbia, Canada)

Abstract: Machine learning, logical inference and mathematical optimisation are pillars of artificial intelligence. As individual areas within AI (and beyond), they have had profound impact in a broad range of applications; jointly, they will shape our future. In this talk, I will explore connections between these areas, illustrate how they can complement each other, and sketch out some of the chances arising from bringing them more closely together. I will use examples from my own research in automated reasoning, automated machine learning and stochastic local search to explain how building bridges between these areas can facilitate major progress in key areas of AI and its applications, covering foundational problems, including propositional satisfiability, mixed integer programming, the travelling salesperson problem, and, most recently, neural network verification. I will also introduce the concept of automated AI (AutoAI), which further facilitates fruitful combinations of learning, reasoning and optimisation techniques, and promises to make cutting edge AI techniques more accessible, more effective and more broadly applicable.

Keynote: When humans and security or privacy technology interact
Video

Sonia Chiasson, Canada Research Chair in User Centric Cybersecurity, Carleton University, Canada

Abstract: Early influential research in usable security and privacy highlighted why Johnny can’t encrypt, how users are not the enemy, and why users should rationally reject security advice.  However, many novice and expert users alike still find themselves with too many passwords, at risk of being tricked by social engineering, unwittingly engaging in privacy-compromising behaviours, and with an ever-growing list of advice to follow.  Why is designing and deploying practical security and privacy so challenging?  In this retrospective talk, we will look back on two decades of research on the usable cybersecurity and privacy.  Through examples and reflection, we will consider areas where we have made progress, discuss open challenges, and explore practical principles for designing security and privacy technology that works for humans.

Video

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Head of Laboratory for Data Security (LDS), EPFL – Station 14, Switzerland

Abstract: In this talk, we address the problem of privacy-preserving training and evaluation of neural networks in an N-party, federated learning setting. We propose a novel system, POSEIDON, the first of its kind in the regime of privacy-preserving neural network training. It employs multiparty lattice-based cryptography to preserve the confidentiality of the training data, the model, and the evaluation data, under a passive-adversary model and collusions between up to N−1 parties. To efficiently execute the secure backpropagation algorithm for training neural networks, we provide a generic packing approach that enables Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) operations on encrypted data. We also introduce arbitrary linear transformations within the cryptographic bootstrapping operation, optimizing the costly cryptographic computations over the parties, and we define a constrained optimization problem for choosing the cryptographic parameters. We will also mention Lattigo, our open-source cryptographic library on which POSEIDON is based. Our experimental results show that POSEIDON achieves accuracy similar to centralized or decentralized non-private approaches and that its computation and communication overhead scales linearly with the number of parties. We will then explain how we are using this technique for the federated analysis of medical data, in particular for genome-wide association studies.

Keynote: Almost Matching Exactly
Video

Cynthia Rudin, Professor of Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering and Statistical Science at Duke University, US

Abstract: I will present a matching framework for causal inference in the potential outcomes setting called Almost Matching Exactly. This framework has several important elements: (1) Its algorithms create matched groups that are interpretable. The goal is to match treatment and control units on as many covariates as possible, or “almost exactly.” (2) Its algorithms create accurate estimates of individual treatment effects. This is because we use machine learning on a separate training set to learn which features are important for matching. The key constraint is that units are always matched on a set of covariates that together can predict the outcome well. (3) Our methods are fast and scalable. In summary, these methods rival black box machine learning methods in their estimation accuracy but have the benefit of being interpretable and easier to troubleshoot.
