We have witnessed tremendous growth in Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) recently. However, research shows that AI and ML models are often vulnerable to adversarial attacks, and their predictions can be difficult to understand, evaluate and ultimately act upon.
Discovering real-world vulnerabilities of deep neural networks and countermeasures to mitigate such threats has become essential to successful deployment of AI in security settings. We present our joint works with Intel which include the first targeted physical adversarial attack (ShapeShifter) that fools state-of-the-art object detectors; a fast defense (SHIELD) that removes digital adversarial noise by stochastic data compression; and interactive systems (ADAGIO and MLsploit) that further democratize the study of adversarial machine learning and facilitate real-time experimentation for deep learning practitioners.
Finally, we also present how scalable interactive visualization can be used to amplify people’s ability to understand and interact with large-scale data and complex models. We sample from projects where interactive visualization has provided key leaps of insight, from increased model interpretability (Gamut with Microsoft Research), to model explorability with models trained on millions of instances (ActiVis deployed with Facebook), increased usability for non-experts about state-of-the-art AI (GAN Lab open-sourced with Google Brain; went viral!), and our latest work Summit, an interactive system that scalably summarizes and visualizes what features a deep learning model has learned and how those features interact to make predictions. We conclude by highlighting the next visual analytics research frontiers in AI.

As enterprises “make their own AI”, a new set of challenges emerge. Maintaining reproducibility, traceability, and verifiability of machine learning models, as well as recording experiments, tracking insights, and reproducing results, are key. Collaboration between teams is also necessary as “model factories” are created for enterprise-wide model data science efforts. Additionally, monitoring of models ensures that drift or performance degradation is addressed with either retraining or model updates. Finally, data and model lineage in case of rollbacks or addressing regulatory compliance is necessary.
H2O ModelOps delivers centralized catalog and management, deployment, monitoring, collaboration, and administration of machine learning models. In this webinar, we learn how H2O can assist with operationalizing, scaling and managing production deployments.

Iterative Architecture: Your Path to on-time DeliveryAsanka Abeysinghe
Think big, act small. It’s easy to develop a vision, but there are often many architecture barriers along the path to achieving it. Asanka Abeysinghe explores iterative architecture—introducing iterative architectural changes to support business and technical requirements—and shares real-world examples.
Enterprises today operate in complex and competitive markets. They are constantly trying to optimize business functions, introduce new business capabilities, and tap into new markets quickly and efficiently. For the business to be agile, tis software systems must also be agile, with the ability to build and integrate new capabilities in a short time. At the same time, enterprise software systems should help with evolutionary (and revolutionary) changes that will affect core business functions.

Iterative Architecture: Your Path to on-time DeliveryAsanka Abeysinghe
Think big, act small. It’s easy to develop a vision, but there are often many architecture barriers along the path to achieving it. Asanka Abeysinghe explores iterative architecture—introducing iterative architectural changes to support business and technical requirements—and shares real-world examples.
Enterprises today operate in complex and competitive markets. They are constantly trying to optimize business functions, introduce new business capabilities, and tap into new markets quickly and efficiently. For the business to be agile, tis software systems must also be agile, with the ability to build and integrate new capabilities in a short time. At the same time, enterprise software systems should help with evolutionary (and revolutionary) changes that will affect core business functions.

Human-Centered AI: Scalable, Interactive Tools for Interpretation and Attribu...polochau
Artificial intelligence and machine learning models are growing increasingly available, but many models offer predictions that are difficult to understand, evaluate and ultimately act upon. We present how scalable interactive visualization can be used to amplify people’s ability to understand and interact with large-scale data and complex models. We sample from projects where interactive visualization has provided key leaps of insight, from increased model explorability with models trained on millions of instances (ActiVis deployed with Facebook), increased usability for non-experts about state-of-the-art AI (GAN Lab open-sourced with Google Brain; went viral!), and our latest work Summit, the first interactive system that scalably summarizes and visualizes what features a deep learning model has learned and how those features interact to make predictions. We conclude by highlighting the next visual analytics research frontiers in AI.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
