Curvature Cryptanalysis of Smooth Transformer Feed-Forward Networks
Munawar Hasan, Apostol Vassilev
We show that smooth two-layer feed-forward networks (FFNs) expose an additional structural model extraction channel under a chosen-input raw-output oracle at the FFN branch; consid…
Sarus: Privacy-Preserving Multi-Vendor Perception Fusion via Homomorphic Encryption
Munawar Hasan, Apostol Vassilev
Cooperative perception enables autonomous vehicles (AVs) to improve situational awareness by aggregating detection outputs from multiple agents and sensing platforms, often via a s…
Hermes Seal: Zero-Knowledge Assurance for Autonomous Vehicle Communications
Munawar Hasan, Apostol Vassilev, Edward Griffor +1
The application of zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) in autonomous systems is an emerging area of research, motivated by the growing need for regulatory compliance, transparent auditing…
Robust AI Security and Alignment: A Sisyphean Endeavor?
Apostol Vassilev
This manuscript establishes information-theoretic limitations for robustness of AI security and alignment by extending Gödel's incompleteness theorem to AI. Knowing these limitatio…
