New 'Deep Learning Attack' Deciphers Laptop Keystrokes with 95% Accuracy
2023-08-07 10:14

A group of academics has devised a "Deep learning-based acoustic side-channel attack" that can be used to classify laptop keystrokes that are recorded using a nearby phone with 95% accuracy. "When trained on keystrokes recorded using the video conferencing software Zoom, an accuracy of 93% was achieved, a new best for the medium," researchers Joshua Harrison, Ehsan Toreini, and Maryam Mehrnezhad said in a new study published last week.

Researchers bring deep learning to IoT devices
2020-11-24 04:00

MIT researchers have developed a system that could bring deep learning neural networks to new - and much smaller - places, like the tiny computer chips in wearable medical devices, household appliances, and the 250 billion other objects that constitute the IoT. The system, called MCUNet, designs compact neural networks that deliver unprecedented speed and accuracy for deep learning on IoT devices, despite limited memory and processing power. IoT devices often run on microcontrollers - simple computer chips with no operating system, minimal processing power, and less than one thousandth of the memory of a typical smartphone.

AI, whose artificial intelligence software is purpose-built for engineers, scientists, and researchers and enables them to innovate and make discoveries faster, announced that it had completed contributions to TensorFlow, the world's most popular open-source framework for deep learning created by Google. "Part of Noble's mission is building AI that's accessible to engineers, scientists and researchers, anytime and anywhere, without needing to learn or re-skill into computer science or AI theory," said Dr. Matthew C. Levy, Founder and CEO of Noble.

Deep Learning to Find Malicious Email Attachments
2020-02-28 17:57

At the RSA security conference in San Francisco on Tuesday, Google's security and anti-abuse research lead Elie Bursztein will present findings on how the new deep-learning scanner for documents is faring against the 300 billion attachments it has to process each week. It's challenging to tell the difference between legitimate documents in all their infinite variations and those that have specifically been manipulated to conceal something dangerous.
