Zoom in to MMS and Magnetopause Reconnection

This visualization starts with the viewer camera just outside earth's magnetosphere (the faint grey mesh) looking down on the orbit of the four MMS spacecraft. During this portion of the mission, the apogee of the orbit takes the spacecraft just outside the magnetopause. The lower orbit speed at this location maximizes the time spent there and increases chances of catching a reconnection event which is the goal of the mission. The camera zooms in to a chase of the four spacraft, simultaneously altering the timescale so each movie frame has a smaller time between them. We catch up with the four spacecraft and see the tetrahedral flying formation. The MMS spacecraft are not always collecting data. Due to telemetry limitations, the data is collected in segments, at different sampling rates, and then downloaded to ground-stations on Earth. In this close-up view, we see two segments of data collection, with a short gap of no data between them. The arrows represent the data collected by the spacecraft. To better comprehend changes as the spacecraft moves along, the data are allowed to 'echo' along the spacecraft trail. The length of the vectors represent the relative magnitude of the vector. However, the electron and proton vectors are scaled so equal velocities correspond to vectors of equal magnitude. Magenta represents the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field at the spacecraft position.Yellow represents the direction and magnitude of the bulk motion (total average) velocity of the electrons measured at the spacecraft position.Blue represents the direction and magnitude of the bulk motion (total average) velocity of the protons measured at the spacecraft position.

ISS and Mercury Too

Transits of Mercury are relatively rare. Monday's leisurely 7.5 hour long event was only the 2nd of 14 Mercury transits in the 21st century. If you're willing to travel, transits of the International Space Station can be more frequent though, and much quicker. This sharp video frame composite was taken from a well-chosen location in Philadelphia, USA. It follows the space station, moving from upper right to lower left, as it crossed the Sun's disk in 0.6 seconds. Mercury too is included as the small, round, almost stationary silhouette just below center. In apparent size, the International Space Station looms larger from low Earth orbit, about 450 kilometers from Philadelphia. Mercury was about 84 million kilometers away. (Editor's note: The stunning video includes another double transit, Mercury and a Pilatus PC12 aircraft. Even quicker than the ISS to cross the Sun, the aircraft was about 1 kilometer away.) via NASA http://ift.tt/1rJM3bK

ISS Daily Summary Report – 05/12/16

Japanese Experiment Module Airlock (JEMAL) JEM Small Satellite Orbital Deployer (J-SSOD) Removal and NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer #7 (NRCSD) Installation: In preparation for next week’s NRCSD #7 deployment, the J-SSOD was removed from the Multi-Purpose Experiment Platform (MPEP) on the JEMAL Slide Table followed by installation of the NRCSD #7 onto the MPEP. The slide table was retracted into the JEMAL.  The J-SSOD is the first of its kind to deploy small satellites from the ISS. The NRCSD is a commercially operated small satellite deployer that maximizes full capabilities of each airlock cycle of deployments. The MPEP/NRCSD is put into position to be grabbed by the robotic arm which places the CubeSat deployer into the correct position for release of miniature satellites into proper orbit.   Rodent Research 3 (RR-3) CASIS: In preparation for next week’s RR-3 operations, crewmembers referenced the RR-3 Grip Strength, Bone Scan, and other required documentation before participating in a conference with the payload developer. They also gathered hardware to configure the Grip Strength equipment in the Microgravity Sciences Glovebox (MSG).   Skin-B Operations: The crew completed Corneometer, Tewameter and Visioscan measurements on his forearm. The Corneometer measures the hydration level of the stratus coreum (outer layer of the skin); the Tewameter measures the skin barrier function; and the Visioscan measures the skin surface topography. Skin B is a European Space Agency (ESA) investigation that aims to improve the understanding of skin aging, which is greatly accelerated in space. The data will also be used to verify the results from previous testing for the SkinCare investigation on the ISS.   NeuroMapping Operations: The crew set up hardware to support the NeuroMapping investigation and performed the experiment including testing in both a “strapped in” and ”free floating” body configuration. The investigation studies whether long-duration spaceflight causes changes to the brain, including brain structure and function, motor control, and multi-tasking abilities. It also measures how long it takes for the brain and body to recover from possible changes. Previous research and anecdotal evidence from astronauts suggests movement control and cognition can be affected in microgravity. The NeuroMapping investigation performs structural and functional magnetic resonance brain imaging (MRI and fMRI) to assess changes that occur after spending months on the ISS.   Fine Motor Skills: A series of interactive tasks was completed for the Fine Motor Skills investigation.  This investigation is the first fine motor skills study to measure long-term microgravity exposure, different phases of microgravity adaptation, and sensorimotor recovery after return to Earth’s gravity.   Common Communications for Visiting Vehicles (C2V2) Radio Frequency (RF) Checkout: The C2V2 Comm Units are two fully redundant radios (C2V2 A and C2V2 B) that are planned for use with future visiting vehicles. The units were installed on March 11 in the LAB with initial activation on April 1.  Today’s test commands and voice communication checkouts concluded the series of tests performed over the last several weeks to verify end to end functionality of both C2V2 Comm Units.   Today’s Planned Activities All activities are on were completed unless otherwise noted.

A Transit of Mercury

On May 9, the diminutive disk of Mercury spent about seven and a half hours crossing in front of the Sun as viewed from the general vicinity of Earth. It was the second of 14 transits of the Solar System's innermost planet in the 21st century. Captured from Fulham, London, England, planet Earth the tiny silhouette shares the enormous solar disk with prominences, filaments, and active regions in this sharp image. But Mercury's round disk (left of center) appears to be the only dark spot, despite the planet-sized sunspots scattered across the Sun. Made with an H-alpha filter that narrowly transmits the red light from hydrogen atoms, the image emphasizes the chromosphere, stretching above the photosphere or normally visible solar surface. In H-alpha pictures of the chromosphere, normally dark sunspot regions are dominated by bright splotches called plages. via NASA http://ift.tt/1TcE1Bd

Learning Representations for Counterfactual Inference. (arXiv:1605.03661v1 [stat.ML])

Observational studies are rising in importance due to the widespread accumulation of data in fields such as healthcare, education, employment and ecology. We consider the task of answering counterfactual questions such as, "Would this patient have lower blood sugar had she received a different medication?". We propose a new algorithmic framework for counterfactual inference which brings together ideas from domain adaptation and representation learning. In addition to a theoretical justification, we perform an empirical comparison with previous approaches to causal inference from observational data. Our deep learning algorithm significantly outperforms the previous state-of-the-art.

Optimizing human-interpretable dialog management policy using Genetic Algorithm. (arXiv:1605.03915v1 [cs.HC])

Automatic optimization of spoken dialog management policies that are robust to environmental noise has long been the goal for both academia and industry. Approaches based on reinforcement learning have been proved to be effective. However, the numerical representation of dialog policy is human-incomprehensible and difficult for dialog system designers to verify or modify, which limits its practical application. In this paper we propose a novel framework for optimizing dialog policies specified in domain language using genetic algorithm. The human-interpretable representation of policy makes the method suitable for practical employment. We present learning algorithms using user simulation and real human-machine dialogs respectively.Empirical experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

The AGI Containment Problem. (arXiv:1604.00545v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)

There is considerable uncertainty about what properties, capabilities and motivations future AGIs will have. In some plausible scenarios, AGIs may pose security risks arising from accidents and defects. In order to mitigate these risks, prudent early AGI research teams will perform significant testing on their creations before use. Unfortunately, if an AGI has human-level or greater intelligence, testing itself may not be safe; some natural AGI goal systems create emergent incentives for AGIs to tamper with their test environments, make copies of themselves on the internet, or convince developers and operators to do dangerous things. In this paper, we survey the AGI containment problem - the question of how to build a container in which tests can be conducted safely and reliably, even on AGIs with unknown motivations and capabilities that could be dangerous. We identify requirements for AGI containers, available mechanisms, and weaknesses that need to be addressed.

Why Artificial Intelligence Needs a Task Theory --- And What It Might Look Like. (arXiv:1604.04660v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)

The concept of "task" is at the core of artificial intelligence (AI): Tasks are used for training and evaluating AI systems, which are built in order to perform and automatize tasks we deem useful. In other fields of engineering theoretical foundations allow thorough evaluation of designs by methodical manipulation of well understood parameters with a known role and importance; this allows an aeronautics engineer, for instance, to systematically assess the effects of wind speed on an airplane's performance and stability. No framework exists in AI that allows this kind of methodical manipulation: Performance results on the few tasks in current use (cf. board games, question-answering) cannot be easily compared, however similar or different. The issue is even more acute with respect to artificial *general* intelligence systems, which must handle unanticipated tasks whose specifics cannot be known beforehand. A *task theory* would enable addressing tasks at the *class* level, bypassing their specifics, providing the appropriate formalization and classification of tasks, environments, and their parameters, resulting in more rigorous ways of measuring, comparing, and evaluating intelligent behavior. Even modest improvements in this direction would surpass the current ad-hoc nature of machine learning and AI evaluation. Here we discuss the main elements of the argument for a task theory and present an outline of what it might look like for physical tasks.

The SP theory of intelligence and the representation and processing of knowledge in the brain. (arXiv:1604.05535v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)

The "SP theory of intelligence", with its realisation in the "SP computer model", aims to simplify and integrate observations and concepts across AI-related fields, with information compression as a unifying theme. This paper describes how abstract structures and processes in the theory may be realised in terms of neurons, their interconnections, and the transmission of signals between neurons. This part of the SP theory -- "SP-neural" -- is a tentative and partial model for the representation and processing of knowledge in the brain. In the SP theory (apart from SP-neural), all kinds of knowledge are represented with "patterns", where a pattern is an array of atomic symbols in one or two dimensions. In SP-neural, the concept of a "pattern" is realised as an array of neurons called a "pattern assembly", similar to Hebb's concept of a "cell assembly" but with important differences. Central to the processing of information in the SP system is the powerful concept of "multiple alignment", borrowed and adapted from bioinformatics. Processes such as pattern recognition, reasoning and problem solving are achieved via the building of multiple alignments, while unsupervised learning -- significantly different from the "Hebbian" kinds of learning -- is achieved by creating patterns from sensory information and also by creating patterns from multiple alignments in which there is a partial match between one pattern and another. Short-lived neural structures equivalent to multiple alignments will be created via an inter-play of excitatory and inhibitory neural signals. The paper discusses several associated issues, with relevant empirical evidence.

ISS Daily Summary Report – 05/11/16

SpX-8 Unberth/Splashdown: Dragon unberthed successfully at 6:00 AM CDT with release at 8:12 AM CDT. Prior to unberth, flight computer FC1-C had an error flag indication, however, SpX and NASA teams confirmed that the error did not impact the Guidance Navigation and Control parameters needed for release and departure. Splashdown occurred at 1:52 PM CDT, less than 3 km off from the landing target point.  The capsule has been lifted out of the water and is onboard the recovery boat.   Sprint Ultrasound 2 Operations: The crew set up a camera and video, configured Ultrasound 2, placed reference marks on the calf and thigh of right leg, donned Sprint (Integrated Resistance and Aerobic Training Study) thigh and calf guides, and perform thigh and calf scans with guidance from the Sprint ground team. When the scan is complete, the crew transfer data from Ultrasound 2 to the Ultrasound 2 USB Drive. Ultrasound scans are used to evaluate spaceflight-induced changes in the muscle volume. The Sprint investigation evaluates the use of high intensity, low volume exercise training to minimize loss of muscle, bone, and cardiovascular function in ISS crewmembers during long-duration missions.   Fine Motor Skills: A series of interactive tasks on a touchscreen tablet was completed for the Fine Motor Skills investigation.  This is the first fine motor skills study to measure long-term microgravity exposure, different phases of microgravity adaptation, and sensorimotor recovery after returning to Earth gravity.   Dose Tracker: The crew completed entries for medication tracking. This investigation documents the medication usage of crew members before and during their missions by capturing data regarding medication use during spaceflight, including side effect qualities, frequencies and severities. The data is expected to either support or counter anecdotal evidence of medication ineffectiveness during flight and unusual side effects experienced during flight. It is also expected that specific, near-real-time questioning about symptom relief and side effects will provide the data required to establish whether spaceflight-associated alterations in pharmacokinetics (PK) or pharmacodynamics (PD) is occurring during missions.   Meteor Software Image Loads and UltraBay Adapter Installation: The crew attempted to load the software image prior to running four Meteor DVDs, however the software load was unsuccessful. The crew reported that the computer could not boot from any device which is consistent with earlier software loading problems. The crew took a picture of the boot screen, left DVD 1 in the laptop and suspended operations.  They left the laptop and hard drive connected in Window Observational Research Facility (WORF) and switches to the laptop power supply and WORF were left on to allow for future ground commanded troubleshooting.   Intermodule Ventilation (IMV) Reconfiguration: As part of the ongoing effort to reduce ppCO2, earlier this morning the crew worked in Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA)1 to better direct IMV airflow back into the Russian Segment. This activity consisted of reconfiguration of existing IMV hardware in PMA1 as well as installation of a new IMV Duct Tee and a 5 foot IMV duct.   Common Communications for Visiting Vehicles (C2V2) Checkout:  C2V2 checkouts continued today with checkouts of the GPS ancillary data, broadcast ancillary data, audio and video on the return link, plus voice checks with crew and Electronic Systems Test Laboratory (ESTL).  Testing will conclude tomorrow.   Ku Communications Unit (KCU) 1 Audio Video Interface Card (AVIC) failure – Today, the KCU-1 AVIC failed to diagnostic mode.  This resulted in a temporary loss of all 6 video downlinks and two of the Space to Ground (S/G) audio channels.  Ground controllers performed a reset of the AVIC, and all video downlinks and S/G 3 & 4 links were recovered nominally.  This issue was seen once in 2015 and recovered in the same manner.   Today’s Planned Activities All activities were completed unless otherwise noted.

A Hierarchical Emotion Regulated Sensorimotor Model: Case Studies. (arXiv:1605.03269v1 [cs.RO])

Inspired by the hierarchical cognitive architecture and the perception-action model (PAM), we propose that the internal status acts as a kind of common-coding representation which affects, mediates and even regulates the sensorimotor behaviours. These regulation can be depicted in the Bayesian framework, that is why cognitive agents are able to generate behaviours with subtle differences according to their emotion or recognize the emotion by perception. A novel recurrent neural network called recurrent neural network with parametric bias units (RNNPB) runs in three modes, constructing a two-level emotion regulated learning model, was further applied to testify this theory in two different cases.

Learning Bounded Treewidth Bayesian Networks with Thousands of Variables. (arXiv:1605.03392v1 [cs.AI])

We present a method for learning treewidth-bounded Bayesian networks from data sets containing thousands of variables. Bounding the treewidth of a Bayesian greatly reduces the complexity of inferences. Yet, being a global property of the graph, it considerably increases the difficulty of the learning process. We propose a novel algorithm for this task, able to scale to large domains and large treewidths. Our novel approach consistently outperforms the state of the art on data sets with up to ten thousand variables.

Concept based Attention. (arXiv:1605.03416v1 [cs.AI])

Attention endows animals an ability to concentrate on the most relevant information among a deluge of distractors at any given time, either through volitionally 'top-down' biasing, or driven by automatically 'bottom-up' saliency of stimuli, in favour of advantageous competition in neural modulations for information processing. Nevertheless, instead of being limited to perceive simple features, human and other advanced animals adaptively learn the world into categories and abstract concepts from experiences, imparting the world meanings. This thesis suggests that the high-level cognitive ability of human is more likely driven by attention basing on abstract perceptions, which is defined as concept based attention (CbA).

Deep Neural Networks Under Stress. (arXiv:1605.03498v1 [cs.CV])

In recent years, deep architectures have been used for transfer learning with state-of-the-art performance in many datasets. The properties of their features remain, however, largely unstudied under the transfer perspective. In this work, we present an extensive analysis of the resiliency of feature vectors extracted from deep models, with special focus on the trade-off between performance and compression rate. By introducing perturbations to image descriptions extracted from a deep convolutional neural network, we change their precision and number of dimensions, measuring how it affects the final score. We show that deep features are more robust to these disturbances when compared to classical approaches, achieving a compression rate of 98.4%, while losing only 0.88% of their original score for Pascal VOC 2007.

Characterizing Quantifier Fuzzification Mechanisms: a behavioral guide for practical applications. (arXiv:1605.03506v1 [cs.AI])

Important advances have been made in the fuzzy quantification field. Nevertheless, some problems remain when we face the decision of selecting the most convenient model for a specific application. In the literature, several desirable adequacy properties have been proposed, but theoretical limits impede quantification models from simultaneously fulfilling every adequacy property that has been defined. Besides, the complexity of model definitions and adequacy properties makes very difficult for real users to understand the particularities of the different models that have been presented. In this work we will present several criteria conceived to help in the process of selecting the most adequate Quantifier Fuzzification Mechanisms for specific practical applications. In addition, some of the best known well-behaved models will be compared against this list of criteria. Based on this analysis, some guidance to choose fuzzy quantification models for practical applications will be provided.

Collaborative Filtering Bandits. (arXiv:1502.03473v6 [cs.LG] UPDATED)

Classical collaborative filtering, and content-based filtering methods try to learn a static recommendation model given training data. These approaches are far from ideal in highly dynamic recommendation domains such as news recommendation and computational advertisement, where the set of items and users is very fluid. In this work, we investigate an adaptive clustering technique for content recommendation based on exploration-exploitation strategies in contextual multi-armed bandit settings. Our algorithm takes into account the collaborative effects that arise due to the interaction of the users with the items, by dynamically grouping users based on the items under consideration and, at the same time, grouping items based on the similarity of the clusterings induced over the users. The resulting algorithm thus takes advantage of preference patterns in the data in a way akin to collaborative filtering methods. We provide an empirical analysis on medium-size real-world datasets, showing scalability and increased prediction performance (as measured by click-through rate) over state-of-the-art methods for clustering bandits. We also provide a regret analysis within a standard linear stochastic noise setting.

Ultimate Intelligence Part II: Physical Measure and Complexity of Intelligence. (arXiv:1504.03303v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)

We continue our analysis of volume and energy measures that are appropriate for quantifying inductive inference systems. We extend logical depth and conceptual jump size measures in AIT to stochastic problems, and physical measures that involve volume and energy. We introduce a graphical model of computational complexity that we believe to be appropriate for intelligent machines. We show several asymptotic relations between energy, logical depth and volume of computation for inductive inference. In particular, we arrive at a "black-hole equation" of inductive inference, which relates energy, volume, space, and algorithmic information for an optimal inductive inference solution. We introduce energy-bounded algorithmic entropy. We briefly apply our ideas to the physical limits of intelligent computation in our universe.

Sample Complexity of Episodic Fixed-Horizon Reinforcement Learning. (arXiv:1510.08906v3 [stat.ML] UPDATED)

Recently, there has been significant progress in understanding reinforcement learning in discounted infinite-horizon Markov decision processes (MDPs) by deriving tight sample complexity bounds. However, in many real-world applications, an interactive learning agent operates for a fixed or bounded period of time, for example tutoring students for exams or handling customer service requests. Such scenarios can often be better treated as episodic fixed-horizon MDPs, for which only looser bounds on the sample complexity exist. A natural notion of sample complexity in this setting is the number of episodes required to guarantee a certain performance with high probability (PAC guarantee). In this paper, we derive an upper PAC bound $\tilde O(\frac{|\mathcal S|^2 |\mathcal A| H^2}{\epsilon^2} \ln\frac 1 \delta)$ and a lower PAC bound $\tilde \Omega(\frac{|\mathcal S| |\mathcal A| H^2}{\epsilon^2} \ln \frac 1 {\delta + c})$ that match up to log-terms and an additional linear dependency on the number of states $|\mathcal S|$. The lower bound is the first of its kind for this setting. Our upper bound leverages Bernstein's inequality to improve on previous bounds for episodic finite-horizon MDPs which have a time-horizon dependency of at least $H^3$.

Stochastic Shortest Path with Energy Constraints in POMDPs. (arXiv:1602.07565v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)

We consider partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) with a set of target states and positive integer costs associated with every transition. The traditional optimization objective (stochastic shortest path) asks to minimize the expected total cost until the target set is reached. We extend the traditional framework of POMDPs to model energy consumption, which represents a hard constraint. The energy levels may increase and decrease with transitions, and the hard constraint requires that the energy level must remain positive in all steps till the target is reached. First, we present a novel algorithm for solving POMDPs with energy levels, developing on existing POMDP solvers and using RTDP as its main method. Our second contribution is related to policy representation. For larger POMDP instances the policies computed by existing solvers are too large to be understandable. We present an automated procedure based on machine learning techniques that automatically extracts important decisions of the policy allowing us to compute succinct human readable policies. Finally, we show experimentally that our algorithm performs well and computes succinct policies on a number of POMDP instances from the literature that were naturally enhanced with energy levels.

ISS Daily Summary Report – 05/10/16

SPHEROIDS De-installation: SPHEROIDS experiment containers were removed from KUBIK 6 and the Minus Eighty Degree Laboratory Freezer for ISS (MELFI) before being transferred and packed into the SPHEROIDS launch bags for return on SpX-8. Incubation and data transfer has been completed for all samples according to schedule. The SPHEROIDS experiment investigates the effects of microgravity on endothelial cell function with respect to blood vessel formation, cellular proliferation, and programmed cell death. Results could help in the development of potential countermeasures to prevent cardiovascular deconditioning in astronauts and improve knowledge of endothelial functions on Earth.   Radiation Dosimetry inside ISS-Neutron (RaDI-N) Retrieval: The USOS crew retrieved all 8 of the Space Bubble Detectors that were deployed last week in the ISS for the Radi-N experiment and handed them over to the Russian crewmember to be processed in the Bubble Reader. The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) RaDI-N investigation measures neutron radiation levels while onboard the ISS and uses bubble detectors as neutron monitors which have been designed to only detect neutrons and ignore all other radiation.   Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) High Quality Protein Crystal Growth (PCG) Removal: The PCG-Canister Bags were removed from the Cell Biology Experiment Facility (CBEF) and the Protein Crystallization Research Facility (PCRF) before being stowed for return on SpX-8. The JAXA PCG-Demo investigation crystallizes proteins using the counter-diffusion technique and permeation method that minimizes impurities, forming high-quality crystals for use in medical studies and ecological applications.   Multi-Omics Operations:  The crew supported the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Multi-Omics investigation by collecting human samples and inserting them into MELFI. The investigation evaluates the impacts of space environment and prebiotics on astronauts’ immune function by combining the data obtained from the measurements of changes in the microbiological composition, metabolites profiles, and the immune system.   Dose Tracker: The crew completed entries for medication tracking. This investigation documents the medication usage of crew members before and during their missions by capturing data regarding medication use during spaceflight, including side effect qualities, frequencies and severities.   Node 2 Nadir (N2N)  Control Panel Assembly (CPA)-2 J5 Cable Remove & Replace (R&R):  The crew successfully R&Rd the N2N Common Berthing Mechanism (CBM) CPA-2 J5 cable with a spare cable flown on OA-4. This cable harness connects the latch controller, latch actuator, and position sensors for CPA-2 Latch 2.  This R&R could only be completed as an Intravehicular Activity (IVA) during a N2N berthed vehicle phase as the cable is between the visiting vehicle and the ISS.  Damage to the backshell of the cable was reported by the crew last year during SpX-6 departure vestibule outfitting.   Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA1)/Node 1 Intermodule Ventilation (IMV) Reconfiguration: Russian Segment and USOS split ventilation remains in effect. The Oxygen Generation Assembly (OGA) was moded to 60% production to increase the O2 partial pressure. USOS 24-hour average is 3.17 mmHg. Teams will continue to monitor CO2 at multiple locations throughout ISS.   SpX-8 Dragon Departure Prep: Today, the crew completed Dragon packing, egress and closed its hatch. Following hatch closure, the crew completed installation of the four Common Berthing Mechanism (CBM) Control Panel Assemblies (CPAs) at the Node 2 Nadir vestibule.  Ground teams then completed associated activation and checkout of the CBM.  Departure activities will continue tomorrow with the removal of power and data jumpers, Node 2 Nadir hatch closure, vestibule depress, and subsequent unberth.  Dragon release is scheduled for 8:21am CDT tomorrow.   Today’s Planned Activities All activities were completed unless otherwise noted.

Unethical Research: How to Create a Malevolent Artificial Intelligence. (arXiv:1605.02817v1 [cs.AI])

Cybersecurity research involves publishing papers about malicious exploits as much as publishing information on how to design tools to protect cyber-infrastructure. It is this information exchange between ethical hackers and security experts, which results in a well-balanced cyber-ecosystem. In the blooming domain of AI Safety Engineering, hundreds of papers have been published on different proposals geared at the creation of a safe machine, yet nothing, to our knowledge, has been published on how to design a malevolent machine. Availability of such information would be of great value particularly to computer scientists, mathematicians, and others who have an interest in AI safety, and who are attempting to avoid the spontaneous emergence or the deliberate creation of a dangerous AI, which can negatively affect human activities and in the worst case cause the complete obliteration of the human species. This paper provides some general guidelines for the creation of a Malevolent Artificial Intelligence (MAI).

We define the FDGs, their features and two distance measures between AGs (unclassified patterns) and FDGs (models or classes) and we also explain an efficient matching algorithm. Two applications of FDGs are presented: in the former, FDGs are used for modelling and matching 3D-objects described by multiple views, whereas in the latter, they are used for representing and recognising human faces, described also by several views.

Consciousness is Pattern Recognition. (arXiv:1605.03009v1 [cs.AI])

This is a nontechnical phenomenological proof that pattern-recognition and consciousness are the same activity, with some speculation about the importance of this. Since Husserl, many philosophers have accepted that consciousness consists of a stream of logical connections between an ego and external objects. These connections are called "intentions." Pattern recognition systems are achievable technical artifacts. The proof links a respected philosophical theory of consciousness with technical art, and may therefore enable a theoretically-grounded form of artificial intelligence called a "synthetic intentionality," a being able to synthesize, generalize, select and repeat a stream of intentions. If the pattern recognition is reflexive, able to operate on the stream of intentions, and flexible, able to find new types of connections, perhaps by evolutionary programming, an SI may be a particularly strong form of AI. The article then addresses some conventional problems: Searles' Chinese room, and how an SI could "understand" "meanings" and "be creative."

Self-Modification of Policy and Utility Function in Rational Agents. (arXiv:1605.03142v1 [cs.AI])

Any agent that is part of the environment it interacts with and has versatile actuators (such as arms and fingers), will in principle have the ability to self-modify -- for example by changing its own source code. As we continue to create more and more intelligent agents, chances increase that they will learn about this ability. The question is: will they want to use it? For example, highly intelligent systems may find ways to change their goals to something more easily achievable, thereby `escaping' the control of their designers. In an important paper, Omohundro (2008) argued that goal preservation is a fundamental drive of any intelligent system, since a goal is more likely to be achieved if future versions of the agent strive towards the same goal. In this paper, we formalise this argument in general reinforcement learning, and explore situations where it fails. Our conclusion is that the self-modification possibility is harmless if and only if the value function of the agent anticipates the consequences of self-modifications and use the current utility function when evaluating the future.

Avoiding Wireheading with Value Reinforcement Learning. (arXiv:1605.03143v1 [cs.AI])

How can we design good goals for arbitrarily intelligent agents? Reinforcement learning (RL) is a natural approach. Unfortunately, RL does not work well for generally intelligent agents, as RL agents are incentivised to shortcut the reward sensor for maximum reward -- the so-called wireheading problem. In this paper we suggest an alternative to RL called value reinforcement learning (VRL). In VRL, agents use the reward signal to learn a utility function. The VRL setup allows us to remove the incentive to wirehead by placing a constraint on the agent's actions. The constraint is defined in terms of the agent's belief distributions, and does not require an explicit specification of which actions constitute wireheading.

Spatial database implementation of fuzzy region connection calculus for analysing the relationship of diseases. (arXiv:1505.04746v2 [cs.DB] UPDATED)

Analyzing huge amounts of spatial data plays an important role in many emerging analysis and decision-making domains such as healthcare, urban planning, agriculture and so on. For extracting meaningful knowledge from geographical data, the relationships between spatial data objects need to be analyzed. An important class of such relationships are topological relations like the connectedness or overlap between regions. While real-world geographical regions such as lakes or forests do not have exact boundaries and are fuzzy, most of the existing analysis methods neglect this inherent feature of topological relations. In this paper, we propose a method for handling the topological relations in spatial databases based on fuzzy region connection calculus (RCC). The proposed method is implemented in PostGIS spatial database and evaluated in analyzing the relationship of diseases as an important application domain. We also used our fuzzy RCC implementation for fuzzification of the skyline operator in spatial databases. The results of the evaluation show that our method provides a more realistic view of spatial relationships and gives more flexibility to the data analyst to extract meaningful and accurate results in comparison with the existing methods.

[FD] CFP: Passwords 2016, Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany, Dec 5-7

==================================================================== Call for Papers The 11th International Conference on Passwords PASSWORDS 2016 5-7 December 2016 Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany http://ift.tt/1ZCEGgU ==================================================================== The Passwords conference was launched in 2010 as a response to the lack of robustness and usability of current personal authentication practices and solutions. Annual participation has doubled over the past three years. Since 2014, the conference accepts peer-reviewed papers. * IMPORTANT DATES * Research papers and short papers: - Title and abstract submission: 2016-07-04 (23:59 UTC-11) - Paper submission: 2016-07-11 (23:59 UTC-11) - Notification of acceptance: 2016-09-05 - Camera-ready from authors: 2016-09-19 Hacker Talks: - Talk proposal submission: 2016-09-15 (23:59 UTC-11) - Notification of acceptance: 2016-09-30 * CONFERENCE AIM * More than half a billion user passwords have been compromised over the last five years, including breaches at internet companies such as Target, Adobe, Heartland, Forbes, LinkedIn, Yahoo, and LivingSocial. Yet passwords, PIN codes, and similar remain the most prevalent method of personal authentication. Clearly, we have a systemic problem. This conference gathers researchers, password crackers, and enthusiastic experts from around the globe, aiming to better understand the challenges surrounding the methods personal authentication and passwords, and how to adequately solve these problems. The Passwords conference series seek to provide a friendly environment for participants with plenty opportunity to communicate with the speakers before, during, and after their presentations. * SCOPE * We seek original contributions that present attacks, analyses, designs, applications, protocols, systems, practical experiences, and theory. Submitted papers may include, but are not limited to, the following topics, all related to passwords and authentication: - Technical challenges and issues: - Cryptanalytic attacks - Formal attack models - Cryptographic protocols - Dictionary attacks - Digital forensics - Online attacks/Rate-limiting - Side-channel attacks - Administrative challenges: - Account lifecycle management - User identification - Password resets - Cross-domain and multi-enterprise system access - Hardware token administration - Password "replacements": - 2FA and multifactor authentication - Risk-based authentication - Password managers - Costs and economy - Biometrics - Continous authentication - FIDO - U2F - Deployed systems: - Best practice reports - Incident reports/Lessons learned - Human factors: - Usability - Design & UX - Social Engineering - Memorability - Accessibility - Pattern predictability - Gestures and graphical patterns - Psychology - Statistics (languages, age, demographics...) - Ethics * INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS * Papers must be submitted as PDF using the Springer LNCS format for Latex. Abstract and title must be submitted one week ahead of the paper deadline. We seek submissions for review in the following three categories: - Research Papers - Short Papers - "Hacker Talks" (talks without academic papers attached) RESEARCH PAPERS should describe novel, previously unpublished technical contributions within the scope of the call. The papers will be subjected to double-blind peer review by the program committee. Paper length is limited to 16 pages (LNCS format) excluding references and well-marked appendices. The paper submitted for review must be anonymous, hence author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or obvious references must be temporarily edited out for the review process. The program committee may reject non-anonymized papers without reading them. The submitted paper (in PDF format) must follow the template described by Springer at http://ift.tt/RH15b8. SHORT PAPERS will also be subject to peer review, where the emphasis will be put on work in progress, hacker achievements, industrial experiences, and incidents explained, aiming at novelty and promising directions. Short paper submissions should not be more than 6 pages in standard LNCS format in total. A short paper must be labeled by the subtitle "Short Paper". Accepted short paper submissions may be included in the conference proceedings. Short papers do not need to be anonymous. The program committee may accept full research papers as short papers. HACKER TALKS are presentations without an academic paper attached. They will typically explain new methods, techniques, tools, systems, or services within the Passwords scope. Proposals for Hacker Talks can be submitted by anybody ("hackers", academics, students, enthusiasts, etc.) in any format, but typically will include a brief (2-3 paragraphs) description of the talk's content and the person presenting. They will be evaluated by a separate subcommittee led by Per Thorsheim, according to different criteria than those used for the refereed papers. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register and present the paper at the conference. Papers without a full registration will be withdrawn from the proceedings and from the conference programme. Papers that pass the peer review process and that are presented at the conference will be included in the event proceedings, published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Papers must be unpublished and not being considered elsewhere for publication. Plagiarism and self-plagiarism will be treated as a serious offense. Program committee members may submit papers but program chairs may not. The time frame for each presentation will be either 30 or 45 minutes, including Q&A. Publication will be by streaming, video and web. * ORGANIZERS * - General chair: Per Thorsheim, God Praksis AS (N) - Program co-chair and host: Markus Dürmuth, Ruhr-University Bochum (DE) - Program co-chair: Frank Stajano, University of Cambridge (UK) * PROGRAM COMMITTEE * (to be announced) * STEERING COMMITTEE * - Per Thorsheim, God Praksis AS (N) - Stig F.

ISS Daily Summary Report – 05/09/16

Sprint: The crew completed the exercise protocol and data collection for Sprint VO2.  Sprint VO2 measures oxygen uptake, ventilatory threshold, and other physiological parameters. It evaluates the use of high intensity, low volume exercise training to minimize loss of muscle, bone, and cardiovascular function in ISS crew members during long-duration missions.   Meteor Procedure Review: In preparation for upcoming activities later this week, the crew reviewed procedures for the software load and Meteor installation. Meteor will perform the first space-based observations of the chemical composition of meteors entering Earth’s atmosphere. Meteors are relatively rare and are difficult to monitor from the ground because of the interference created by Earth’s atmosphere. The Meteor investigation takes high-resolution video and images of the atmosphere and uses a software program to search for bright spots which can later be analyzed on the ground.   NanoRack Module 9: The crew completed the fifth NanoRack Module 9 experiment session by activating, deactivating, and shaking the mixture tubes to facilitate the experiment. Module-9 is a collection of student research projects utilizing the NanoRacks Mixsticks. Student teams from across the United States design their own experiments using flight approved fluids and materials.   Rodent Research 3 CASIS: Crewmembers inspected and restocked the habitats with water, and with Food Bars retrieved from the Minus Eighty Degree Laboratory Freezer for ISS (MELFI).   SpaceX (SpX)-8 Departure Preparation: In preparation for SpX-8 unberth next Wednesday, May 11, the following were completed today: Robotics On-Board Trainer (RoBOT) session to practice vehicle release including two release runs and self study. Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Communication Unit (CUCU) and Dragon Crew Command Panel (CCP) activation and checkout. POLAR transfer to Dragon. Double Cold Bag packing. At this time, the weather looks favorable for splashdown Wednesday.   Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA1)/Node 1 (N1) Intermodule Ventilation (IMV) Reconfiguration: Russian Segment and USOS split ventilation is still in effect. Over the weekend, the Lab Forward Starboard IMV fan was activated to address a ppCO2 delta between the Lab and N2. Today, the N3 Overhead Starboard IMV fan was deactivated to reduce the amount of air that is being pulled into the N1 overhead diffuser from PMA1.  Airflow from N1 into N3 will be exchanged through the hatch only. The USOS ppCO2 24-hour average is 3.18 mmHg. Teams will continue monitoring CO2 at multiple locations throughout ISS.   Today’s Planned Activities All activities were completed unless otherwise noted.

Since its opening in 1891, Stanford has been dedicated to finding solutions to big challenges and to preparing students for leadership in a complex world. (Copy of the Homepage: http://ift.tt/1YjhNin ) Abstract Advisory Information: ============================== The vulnerability laboratory core research team discovered multiple sql-injection vulnerabilities in the official Stanford University online service web-application. Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2016-04-19: Researcher Notification & Coordination (Benjamin Kunz Mejri - Evolution Security GmbH) 2016-04-20: Vendor Notification (Campus Security Department) 2016-04-22: Vendor Response/Feedback (Campus Security Department) 2016-05-06: Vendor Fix/Patch (Stanford Site Developer Team) 2016-05-09: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Stanford Product: Stanford University - Online Service (Web-Application) 2016 Q2 Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== High Technical Details & Description: ================================ A remote sql-injection web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Stanford University online service web-application. The vulnerability allows remote attackers and privileged user accounts to execute own sql commands to compromise the web-server or dbms. The vulnerability is located in the `id` value of the `getevent.php` file GET method request. Remote attackers are able to execute own malicious sql commands via id value to compromise the web-server or connected database management system. The issue is a classic remote sql injection vulnerability. The request method to execute is GET and the attack vector is located on the application-side of the active web-service. The security risk of the sql-injection vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 7.8. Exploitation of the remote sql injection web vulnerability requires no user interaction and a low privileged web-application user account. Successful exploitation of the remote sql injection results in database management system, web-server and web-application compromise. Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable File(s): [+] getevent.php Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+ id Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The sql-injection vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without privileged user account or user interaction.

[FD] Trend Micro Direct Pass - Filter Bypass & Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability

Document Title: =============== Trend Micro Direct Pass - Filter Bypass & Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability References (Source): ==================== http://ift.tt/1TpHIk8 Trend Micro Security ID: 1-1-1039900197 Release Date: ============= 2016-05-01 Vulnerability Laboratory ID (VL-ID): ==================================== 1716 Common Vulnerability Scoring System: ==================================== 4.3 Product & Service Introduction: =============================== DirectPass runs as a local console and browser plug-in but can also sync between multiple PC installations through your Trend Micro account. Unlike LastPass 1.72 (free, 5 stars), Dashlane (free, 4.5 stars), and RoboForm Everywhere 7 ($19.95 direct, 4.5 stars), it doesn`t let you log in to your saved credentials online. However, it will sync with free DirectPass apps for Android and iPhone. You can also test a free edition that manages just five passwords. DirectPass can export its data for import to another DirectPass installation. It can also import login data from LastPass. Hoping to get a fast start, I imported my 200+ LastPass logins. The results were disappointing. For starters, DirectPass doesn`t include the ability to categorize sites, so my passwords came through as an unordered list, a very long list. There`s no way to sort the list, and no provision to search for a particular login. For some reason, clicking in the list`s scroll bar doesn`t scroll down by one `page` of items. Instead, it scrolls to the corresponding location in the list. Finding any particular login required tediously scrolling through the entire list. (Copy of the Vendor Homepage: http://ift.tt/1ORFdHZ ) Abstract Advisory Information: ============================== An independent vulnerability laboratory researcher discovered a filter bypass issue and cross site vulnerability in the official Trend Micro Direct Pass web-application. Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2016-02-08: Researcher Notification & Coordination (Karim Rahal) 2016-02-09: Vendor Notification (Trend Micro Security Team) 2016-02-10: Vendor Response/Feedback (Trend Micro Security Team) 2016-04-27: Vendor Fix/Patch (Trend Micro Developer Team) 2016-05-01: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Trend Micro Product: DirectPass 2016 Q1 Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Medium Technical Details & Description: ================================ A filter bypass and cross site scripting vulnerability has been discovered in the official Trend Micro DirectPass online service web-application. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass the filter restrictions of the web-application validation procedure mechanism. The cross site vulnerability allows an attacker to inject own malicious script codes on the application-side of the vulnerable modules context. There is a filter which filters special characters in the website, but it was bypassed through filter-evasion by a live session tamper for http. The mechanism does approve the direct input but does not filter the request context itself. Thus allows an attacker to bypass the basic special char filter. The cross site issue is inside the `(title) has been deleted` once you delete a password listed, replace (title) with a xss payload would execute the cross site scripting payload. Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The filter bypass and cross site vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers with low privileged web-application user account and low user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue. Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ... 1. Go to pwm.trendmicro.com 2. Make sure you have the Trend Micro Password Manager (Direct Pass) extension installed 3. Go to add a new password 4. Open a proxy interpreting tool (livehttpheaders / tamper data / burpsuite) 5. Insert a title and the rest of the information while interpreting/tampering the requests 6. Then edit the POST request which is sent to localhost:49154 and has the information of the new password 7. Now edit "DisplayName":"(your title)" to "DisplayName":"'>" (this will alert "XSS") 8. Then edit "ID":"(id)" and add anything to it like "ID":"anything(id)" 9. Now replay the request 10. Go back to pwm.trendmicro.com 11. Check your passwords and you will see that you were able to put invalid characters to the title! [Filter Bypass=done] 12. Now delete the password 13. The xss will alert with cookie! [XSS=done] 14. Successful reproduce of the vulnerability!
