Lead AI postdoctoral research fellow position within Cryptography and Security of AI, University of Bergen

About the host research group and research theme

This postdoctoral position is linked with a research effort aiming to apply cryptographic methods for studying the security aspects of Artificial Intelligence(AI). Cryptographic approaches will be tested for attacks on AI and existing protection methods in cryptography will be applied for security of AI. The candidate will have the freedom to explore new related topics and drive the research in the direction of security of AI and cryptographic elements. 

The primary objectives of this project are to explore cryptographic methods and techniques for the security of AI. More concretely, there are three research objectives:

1) To analyze the security of machine learning (ML) models against modifications by using the principles of differential cryptanalysis.

2) To analyze the security of ML models against attacks that aim to recover the parameters of the model (e.g., weights of a neural network).

3) To investigate whether it is possible to improve the security of ML models to make them more resilient against attacks by adapting techniques which have been developed against differential and linear cryptanalyses.

The postdoc will work with a teamat the Selmer Center in Secure Communicationincluding among others Adj. Prof. Vincent RijmenandProf. Lilya Budaghyan.
