With information technology's rapid development, the Internet faces serious security problems. Studies have shown that malware has become a primary means of attacking the Internet. Therefore, adversarial samples have become a vital breakthrough point for studying malware. By studying adversarial samples, we can gain insights into the behavior and characteristics of malware, evaluate the performance of existing detectors in the face of deceptive samples, and help to discover vulnerabilities and improve detection methods for better performance. However, existing adversarial sample generation methods still need help regarding escape effectiveness and mobility. For instance, researchers have attempted to incorporate perturbation methods like Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM), Projected Gradient Descent (PGD), and others into adversarial samples to obfuscate detectors. However, these methods are only effective in specific environments and yield limited evasion effectiveness. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a malware adversarial sample generation method (PixGAN) based on the pixel attention mechanism, which aims to improve adversarial samples' escape effect and mobility. The method transforms malware into grey-scale images and introduces the pixel attention mechanism in the Deep Convolution Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) model to weigh the critical pixels in the grey-scale map, which improves the modeling ability of the generator and discriminator, thus enhancing the escape effect and mobility of the adversarial samples. The escape rate (ASR) is used as an evaluation index of the quality of the adversarial samples. The experimental results show that the adversarial samples generated by PixGAN achieve escape rates of 97%, 94%, 35%, 39%, and 43% on the Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Convolutional Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network (CNN_RNN), and Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short Term Memory (CNN_LSTM) algorithmic detectors, respectively.

A good acoustic word embedding that can well express the characteristics of word plays an important role in wake-up word detection (WWD). However, the representation ability of acoustic word embedding may be weakened due to various types of environmental noise occurred in the place where WWD works, causing performance degradation. In this paper, we proposed triplet loss based Domain Adversarial Training (tDAT) mitigating environmental factors that can affect acoustic word embedding. Through experiments in noisy environments, we verified that the proposed method effectively improves the conventional DAT approach, and checked its scalability by combining with other method proposed for robust WWD.

Recently, point clouds are generated by capturing real space in 3D, and it is actively applied and serviced for performances, exhibitions, education, and training. These point cloud data require post-correction work to be used in virtual environments due to errors caused by the capture environment with sensors and cameras. In this paper, we propose an enhancement technique for 3D point cloud data by applying generative adversarial network(GAN). Thus, we performed an approach to regenerate point clouds as an input of GAN. Through our method presented in this paper, point clouds with a lot of noise is configured in the same shape as the real object and environment, enabling precise interaction with the reconstructed content.

Malicious social robots, which are disseminators of malicious information on social networks, seriously affect information security and network environments. The detection of malicious social robots is a hot topic and a significant concern for researchers. A method based on classification has been widely used for social robot detection. However, this method of classification is limited by an unbalanced data set in which legitimate, negative samples outnumber malicious robots (positive samples), which leads to unsatisfactory detection results. This paper proposes the use of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to extend the unbalanced data sets before training classifiers to improve the detection of social robots. Five popular oversampling algorithms were compared in the experiments, and the effects of imbalance degree and the expansion ratio of the original data on oversampling were studied. The experimental results showed that the proposed method achieved better detection performance compared with other algorithms in terms of the F1 measure. The GAN method also performed well when the imbalance degree was smaller than 15%.

A technology for calculating the position of a device is very important for users who receive positioning services, regardless of various indoor/outdoor or with/without any positioning infrastructure existence environments. One of the positioning resources widely used at present, LTE, is a typical infrastructure that can overcome the space limitation, however its positioning method based on the position of the LTE base station has low accuracy. A method of constructing a radio wave map of an LTE signal has been proposed as a method for overcoming the accuracy, but it takes a lot of time and cost to perform high-density collection in a wide area. In this paper, we describe a method of creating a high-density DB for the entire region by using vehicle-based partial collection data. To create a positioning database, we applied the idea of Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), which has recently been in the spotlight in the field of deep learning, and learned the collected data. Then, a virtually generated map which having the smallest error from the actual data is selected as the optimum DB. We verified the effectiveness of the positioning DB generation algorithm using the positioning data obtained from un-collected area.

Ghost imaging (GI) technology is developing rapidly, but there are inevitably some limitations such as the influence of atmospheric turbulence. In this paper, we study a ghost imaging system in atmospheric turbulence and use a gamma-gamma (GG) model to simulate the medium to strong range of turbulence distribution. With a compressed sensing (CS) algorithm and generative adversarial network (GAN), the image can be restored well. We analyze the performance of correlation imaging, the influence of atmospheric turbulence and the restoration algorithm's effects. The restored image's peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index map (SSIM) increased to 21.9 dB and 0.67 dB, respectively. This proves that deep learning (DL) methods can restore a distorted image well, and it has specific significance for computational imaging in noisy and fuzzy environments.

질병을 앓고 있는 환자는 상태에 따라 병실, 주거지, 요양원 등 조호환경 내 생활 시 의료 인력의 지속적인 추적 및 관찰을 통해 신체에 이상이 생긴 경우 이를 감지하고, 신속하게 조치할 수 있도록 해야 한다. 의료 인력이 직접 환자를 확인하는 방법은 의료 인력의 반복적인 노동이 요구되며 실시간으로 환자를 확인해야 한다는 특성상 의료 인력이 상주해야 하기에 이는 곧, 의료 인력의 부족과 낭비로 이어진다. 해당 문제 해결을 위해 의료 인력을 대신하여 조호환경 내 환자의 상태를 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있는 딥러닝 모델들이 연구되고 있다. 딥러닝 모델은 데이터의 수가 많을수록 강인한 모델을 설계할 수 있으며, 데이터셋의 배경, 객체의 특징 분포 등 다양한 조건에 영향을 받기 때문에 학습에 필요한 도메인을 가지는 많은 양의 전처리된 데이터를 수집해야 한다. 따라서, 조호환경 내 환자에 대한 데이터셋이 필요하지만, 공개된 데이터셋의 경우 양이 매우 적으며 이를 반전, 회전기법 등을이용할 경우 데이터의 수를 늘릴 수 있지만, 같은 분포의 특징을 가지는 데이터가 생성되기에 데이터 증강 기법을 단순하게 적용하면 딥러닝 모델의 과적합을 야기한다. 또한, 조호환경 내 이미지 데이터셋은 얼굴 노출과 같은 개인정보가 포함 될 수 있으며 이를 보호하기 위해 정보들을 비식별화 해야 한다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 조호환경에서 수집된 데이터 증강을 위한 Style-Generative Adversarial Networks 기법을 적용하여 조호환경 데이터셋 수집에 효과적인 증강 기법을 제안한다.

The advent of the big data era has enabled the rapid development of deep learning that learns rules by itself from data. In particular, the performance of CNN algorithms has reached the level of self-adjusting the source data itself. However, the existing image processing method only deals with the image data itself, and does not sufficiently consider the heterogeneous environment in which the image is generated. Images generated in a heterogeneous environment may have the same information, but their features may be expressed differently depending on the photographing environment. This means that not only the different environmental information of each image but also the same information are represented by different features, which may degrade the performance of the image analysis model. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method to improve the performance of the image color constancy model based on Adversarial Learning that uses image data generated in a heterogeneous environment simultaneously. Specifically, the proposed methodology operates with the interaction of the 'Domain Discriminator' that predicts the environment in which the image was taken and the 'Illumination Estimator' that predicts the lighting value. As a result of conducting an experiment on 7,022 images taken in heterogeneous environments to evaluate the performance of the proposed methodology, the proposed methodology showed superior performance in terms of Angular Error compared to the existing methods.
