摘要:
A robust and accurate binary neural network, referred to as RA-BNN, is provided to simultaneously defend against adversarial noise injection and improve accuracy. Recently developed adversarial weight attack, a.k.a. bit-flip attack (BFA), has shown enormous success in compromising deep neural network (DNN) performance with an extremely small amount of model parameter perturbation. To defend against this threat, embodiments of RA-BNN adopt a complete binary neural network (BNN) to significantly improve DNN model robustness (defined as the number of bit-flips required to degrade the accuracy to as low as a random guess). To improve clean inference accuracy, a novel and efficient two-stage network growing method is proposed and referred to as early growth. Early growth selectively grows the channel size of each BNN layer based on channel-wise binary masks training with Gumbel-Sigmoid function. Apart from recovering the inference accuracy, the RA-BNN after growing also shows significantly higher resistance to BFA.

In an embodiment, a method for manufacturing a thin layer chromatography (“TLC”) plate is disclosed. The method includes forming a layer of elongated nanostructures (e.g., carbon nanotubes), and at least partially coating the elongated nanostructures with a coating. The coating includes a stationary phase and/or precursor of a stationary phase for use in chromatography. At least a portion of the elongated nanostructures may be removed after being coated. Embodiments for TLC plates and related methods are also disclosed.

Vectors comprising a TGFβ receptor II RNAi nucleic acid sequence operably linked to a myeloid specific promoter also are provided. A method of diagnosing cancer in an individual by determining TGFβ receptor II expression in myeloid cells in the individual is provided. Additionally, a method of modulating TGFβ activity in myeloid cells in a cancer patient comprising administering a regulator of at least one of the GSK3 and PI3K pathways to the patient is provided.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for making an optical fiber preform. The apparatus has an outer wall and an inner wall. The outer wall surrounds the inner wall and the inner wall surrounds an inner cavity of the apparatus. A core rod is deposited in the inner cavity after which particulate glass material, such as glass soot, is deposited in the inner cavity around the core rod. The core rod has at least 10 percent of the final cladding soot already applied thereto. A radially inward pressure is applied against the particulate glass material to pressurize the particulate glass material against the core rod.
