#researchatnecstlab - #NECSTFridayTalk On Friday, 13.12.2024, we will have a new talk for our series #NECSTFridayTalk. During this talk, we will have, as speaker, Gabriele Digregorio, PhD Student at Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria. In the following, you can find the details about the talk: 📌 Title: Tarallo: Evading Behavioral Malware Detectors in the Problem Space 📌 Abstract: Machine learning algorithms can effectively classify malware through dynamic behavior but are susceptible to adversarial attacks. Existing attacks, however, often fail to find an effective solution in both the feature and problem spaces. This issue arises from not addressing the intrinsic nondeterministic nature of malware, namely executing the same sample multiple times may yield significantly different behaviors. Hence, the perturbations computed for a specific behavior may be ineffective for others observed in subsequent executions. We show how an attacker can augment their chance of success by leveraging a new and more efficient feature space algorithm for sequential data, which we have named Position Sensitive - Fast Gradient Sign Method, and by adopting two problem space strategies specially tailored to address nondeterminism in the problem space. We implement our novel algorithm and attack strategies in Tarallo, an end-to-end adversarial framework that significantly outperforms previous works in both white and blackbox scenarios. Our preliminary analysis in a sandboxed environment and against two Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)-based malware detectors, shows that Tarallo achieves a success rate up to 99% on both feature and problem space attacks while significantly minimizing the number of modifications required for misclassification. 📌 Time: 11:30am 📌 Location: live from the NECSTLab Meeting Room or online on Zoom: https://lnkd.in/dTwshy65 #NECSTLab #Computerscience

📣 📣 Hot off the press our latest results on reconfigurable metadevices based on organic electronic materials by Cristiano Bortolotti and Federico Grandi, published in Nature Communications Springer Nature! Thanks to a fantastic collaboration between Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, CNR IFN, University of Oxford and Università degli Studi di Padova, in this work we explore a fully direct-written metadevice structure operating in the THz range, achieving excellent tuning performances. We also investigated the THz properties of our conjugated polymer of choice, pg2T-TT, a high-performance conductor of both electrons and ions. It turns out that although conductivity modulations in the terahertz range are rather modest compared to those measured at low frequencies/DC, they are nonetheless sufficient to explain the very good performance of our devices. Besides the first two co-authors, this project involved quite a few people: Matteo Butti, Lorenzo Gatto, Francesco Modena, Christina Kousseff, Iain McCulloch, Caterina Vozzi, Mario Caironi, and Eugenio Cinquanta, PhD (co-corresponding author). It was truly a pleasure to collaborate with this exceptional -and extremely interdisciplinary- team of chemists, spectroscopists and microfab specialists!

TECHNICAL PAPER | A simple tool for the capacity curve of embedded retaining systems, part 1 By Domenico Gallese, PhD and Luigi Callisto, Sapienza Università di Roma The seismic behaviour of earth retaining structures involves a complex soil-structure interaction, but current engineering practices often rely on simplified design tools. Hence, there is a need for cost-effective design methods that incorporate modern seismic performance concepts while remaining straightforward for practical implementation. Recent research suggests that the mobilisation of the system resistance, from static conditions to the development of a plastic mechanism that may be induced by seismic actions, can be effectively represented by a well-defined capacity curve. This curve was shown to be effective in the prediction of the seismic performance, including residual displacements and maximum internal forces in structural elements. Furthermore, this design approach offers remarkable flexibility, enabling its direct application in displacement-based design methods or serving as a basis for equivalent force-based approaches. This paper aims to present a simple tool to derive the capacity curve of embedded retaining systems, extending the well-known subgrade reaction method, in the context of a displacement-based approach. This paper is presented in two parts. The first part discusses the simple tool for defining pushover curves of retaining structures, while the second part, to be published in a following issue, covers the application of the method and its validation against the results of two case studies carried out on nonlinear finite difference analyses. #technicalpaper #retainingwalls #soilstructure #seismicbehaviour
