Inference Privacy: Properties and Mechanisms

open access: yes2024 58th Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers
Ensuring privacy during inference stage is crucial to prevent malicious third parties from reconstructing users' private inputs from outputs of public models. Despite a large body of literature on privacy preserving learning (which ensures privacy of training data), there is no existing systematic framework to ensure the privacy of users' data during ...

Neural mechanisms of flexible perceptual inference.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
What seems obvious in one context can take on an entirely different meaning if that context shifts. While context-dependent inference has been widely studied, a fundamental question remains: how does the brain simultaneously infer both the meaning of ...

Computational mechanisms of moral inference

open access: yes, 2019
Accurately inferring the moral character of others is crucial for avoiding social threats. Putatively “bad” agents command more attention and are identified more quickly and accurately than benign or friendly agents. Such vigilance is adaptive but can also be costly in environments where people sometimes make mistakes, because incorrectly attributing ...

Statistical inference on the mechanisms of genome evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
In a series of publications, I and my colleagues have developed hypotheses for how the evolution of various aspects of genome architecture is expected to proceed under conditions in which the forces of random genetic drift and mutation predominate (e.g., [1]–[15]).

Overlapping Mechanisms in Implying and Inferring [PDF]

open access: yesCognitive Science, 2019
AbstractPrior psychological work on Gricean implicature has revealed much about how listeners infer (comprehension) but little about how speakers imply (production). This is surprising given the inherent link between the two. This study aimed to obtain a more integral understanding of implicatures by investigating the processes that are shared between ...

Statistical mechanics of inference in epidemic spreading

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2023
We investigate the information-theoretical limits of inference tasks in epidemic spreading on graphs in the thermodynamic limit. The typical inference tasks consist in computing observables of the posterior distribution of the epidemic model given observations taken from a ground truth (sometimes called planted) random trajectory.

Inferring mechanisms for global constitutional progress [PDF]

open access: yesNature Human Behaviour, 2018
Constitutions help define domestic political orders, but are known to be influenced by two international mechanisms: one that reflects global temporal trends in legal development, and another that reflects international network dynamics such as shared colonial history.

Special Purpose, but Domain Independent, Inference Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
vie describe a number of special purpose, but domain independent, inference mechanisms. While these rl1echanisms are limited to certain kinds of inference and illference rules, they do not rely on special properties of ...

Getting one step closer to deduction: Introducing an alternative paradigm for transitive inference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This is the author's accepted manuscript. The final published article is available from the link below. Copyright @ 2008 Psychology Press.Transitive inference is claimed to be “deductive”. Yet every group/species ever reported apparently uses it.
