Abstract: This work examines an imbalance in artificial intelligence (AI) security research: the field tends to produce more work on attacking AI systems than on defending them. Drawing on related academic papers, we find biased attack-to-defense ratios across subfields, including federated learning, speech recognition, membership inference, large language models, etc. The imbalance possibly means far beyond a simple count: attack papers are routinely evaluated under favorable conditions that make threats look more severe than they are in practice, while defenses are held to a stricter standard that few can meet. The result is a literature rich in demonstrated vulnerabilities and thin on usable and deployed protections. We thus argue that AI security research should better incentivize defense research.
Portable automated rapid testing for auditory assessment: repeated at-home testing in older adults
IntroductionHearing challenges are prevalent in older adults and are associated with age-related cognitive decline. However, measuring age-related changes in hearing faces critical barriers related to
