MISINTERPRET [4 records]

Record 1 2024-06-20

English

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

A model evasion attack would allow attackers to modify inputs into the AI [artificial intelligence] model in a way that causes it to misclassify or misinterpret them, changing its intended behavior. This can be done visibly to a human observer(for example, putting small stickers on stop signs to cause self-driving cars to ignore them) or invisibly(for example, changing individual pixels in an image by adding noise that tricks an object recognition model).

Domaine(s)
  • Sécurité des TI
  • Intelligence artificielle
CONT

Les attaques par exfiltration de modèle visent à permettre le vol d'un modèle d'IA [intelligence artificielle] et/ou de ses paramètres et hyperparamètres.

Record 2 1994-10-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
DEF

That part of the virus which contains the routines and functions which are necessary to retain reproductibility.

CONT

The analysis of the assembly code will reveal how the virus works, what it does and how it propagates.... The replicating part of the virus will be isolated as well as its payload. Any payload trigger conditions should be analyzed very carefully, as these are easy to misinterpret...

Segment du virus qui contient les routines et fonctions nécessaires à sa reproduction.

CONT

L'analyse du code assembleur révélera le fonctionnement du virus, ce qu'il fait et son mode de propagation [...] La partie «reproduction» du virus sera isolée ainsi que sa charge. Toutes les conditions de déclenchement de la charge devront être analysées très soigneusement car il est très facile de mal les interpréter [...]

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
CONT

The analysis of the assembly code will reveal how the virus works, what it does and how it propagates.... The replicating part of the virus will be isolated as well as its payload. Any payload trigger conditions should be analyzed very carefully, as these are easy to misinterpret....

OBS

... Viruses do not normally consist only of self-replicating code; they also contain a "payload". This is comparable to a missile carrying a warhead; the self-replicating code is analogous to the missile and the side-effects to the warhead. It is easy to program the payload side-effects to be malicious.

OBS

(...) les virus ne sont pas uniquement constitués d'une codification autoreproductrice; ils contiennent également une«charge». On pourrait faire une analogie avec un missile transportant une charge explosive; la codification autoreproductrice est analogue au missile et les effets secondaires à la charge explosive. On peut facilement programmer les effets secondaires de la charge pour qu'ils soient malveillants.

Record 4 1990-01-16

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
CONT

The water activity exerts a strong influence on enzyme activity and stability. This phenomenon must be fully appreciated in order to analyze the effect of a compound on enzyme efficiency, and so as not to misinterpret as direct an indirect effect caused by a modification of water activity. Furthermore, from a technological viewpoint, a better understanding of this phenomenon may allow rationalization of the operation of enzyme catalysts and their improved efficiency.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sciences biologiques
CONT

L'efficacité enzymatique est étonnante : ce type de catalyse multiplie par un facteur compris en général entre 106 et 1010 la vitesse d'une réaction, ce qui est énorme. Au niveau moléculaire, le problème est de savoir grâce à quels phénomènes intimes l'obtention de telles accélérations est possible. Quatre mécanismes principaux méritent d'être évoqués : les effets de positionnement et de proximité, la catalyse covalente, la catalyse acide-base, les contraintes conformationnelles.
