Part of Term 1
Aug 25-Dec 10
Advanced Topics in Security, Privacy, and Machine Learning

Credit: 4 hours.

Advanced topics in security and privacy problems in machine learning systems, selected from areas of current research such as: adversarial machine learning, differential privacy, game theory enabled defenses, robust learning methods, machine learning based cybercrime analysis, network intrusion detection, and malware analysis, and machine learning interpretation techniques.

May be repeated if topics vary. Credit is not given towards a degree from multiple offerings of this course if those offerings have significant overlap, as determined by the CS department. Prerequisite: One of CS 446 or ECE 449 and one of CS 463 or ECE 424, or equivalent courses, by consent of instructor. Additional prerequisites or corequisites may be specified each term. See section information.

Section Title:
Adv Top in Sec, Priv and ML
Section Info:
This section will primarily focus on (1) using machine learning (ML), especially Generative AI, for applications in system and network security and privacy; and (2) understanding the security and privacy challenges posed by ML-integrated systems. Example topics include using ML to build novel security defenses (e.g., detecting system vulnerability, network intrusions, and cybercrime), as well as ensuring the robustness and resilience of ML-integrated systems (e.g., protecting data privacy and securing ML-based infrastructures). Students will read, present, replicate, and discuss cutting-edge research outcomes, and work on an original research project on the relevant topics. <br/> Prerequisites: One of CS 446 or ECE 449 and one of CS 463 or ECE 424, or equivalent courses, by consent of instructor. <br/> For up-to-date information about CS course restrictions, please see the following link: http://go.cs.illinois.edu/csregister
