Nonmonotonic generalization bias of Gaussian mixture models.

abstract：:A significant threat to the recent, wide deployment of machine learning-based systems, including deep neural networks (DNNs), is adversarial learning attacks. The main focus here is on evasion attacks against DNN-based classifiers at test time. While much work has focused on devising attacks that make small perturbati...

In this model, single synapses do not exhibit plasticity depending on the exact timing of pre- and postsynaptic spikes, but spike-timing-dependent plasticity emerges only at the temporal or synaptic ensemble level. We showed...
