Talk: Attack on Machine Learning Models- Scan and Secure ML Models

Presenter:
Mehrin Kiani, Machine Learning Researcher, Protect AI

About the Speaker:
Dr. Mehrin Kiani is a highly accomplished researcher in the field of machine learning with a strong focus on secure, ethical, and explainable machine learning. Her work has been published in prestigious journals such as IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence and Nature Communications Biology, highlighting the significance and quality of her research.

In the domain of explainable machine learning, Dr. Kiani’s contributions are valuable for enhancing our understanding of complex machine learning models. Explainability is an essential aspect of ML, particularly in applications where transparency, accountability, and interpretability are crucial, such as healthcare, finance, and legal fields.

Beyond academia, Dr. Kiani is an active advocate for open-source initiatives, believing in the power of collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Dr Kiani and her team at Protect AI have released several cutting-edge tools and libraries that empower fellow researchers and developers to harness the potential of secure ML (ModelScan and NB Defense- available on GitHub). These tools could prove instrumental in advancing the field, as secure and transparent machine learning is vital for addressing real-world challenges and concerns related to privacy, fairness, and safety.

Talk Abstract:
How can attackers use Machine Learning (ML) models as an effective attack vector on ML systems? Using model serialization attacks (MSA)! MSA is where malicious code is added to the contents of a ML model during serialization (saving). The motivation for the session is to inform ML practitioners about MSA and to encourage them to scan ML models before use.

Talk: Operationalizing Data Ethics

Presenter:
Mona B. Abadi, Director, Data Ethics and Use, Scotiabank

About the Speaker:
Mona has worked as an economist at the provincial Treasury Board Secretariat and Ministry of Finance. In her last position before joining Scotiabank, she acted as an internal consultant in the Behavioural Insights unit where she helped to increase the uptake and efficacy of government programs and services, using principles from psychology and economics.
Currently, Mona leads the Data Ethics & Use Team at Scotiabank.
Mona holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Economics, and a Masters in Economics

Talk Abstract:
The rise of data and analytics, particularly the use of Big Data, has led to growing concerns about the ethics of how data is being managed and used. As companies collect, share, manage and use data, organizations are becoming more thoughtful about the unintended consequences that can arise when the ethical use of the data is not a key consideration. In this talk, Mona Balesh Abadi will discuss how building a Data Ethics practice at an organization can help practitioners take a proactive approach to incorporating ethical considerations into their projects, and minimize the risk of unintended harm.

Scotiabank is one of the first organizations in the financial industry to tackle these challenges by creating a dedicated Data Ethics team. During the session, Mona will underscore the importance of Data Ethics and share her insights on the Bank’s journey to operationalize it.
