KurzbeschreibungAs statistical and machine learning models are increasingly employed in many real-world applications it becomes more important to understand the vulnerabilities and robustness properties of these models.
In the first part of this seminar, we will study papers relating to adversarial examples. In the second part of the course, we will review other types of distribution shifts.
LernzielAfter this seminar, you should know
- properties of adversarial examples
- some attacks and defenses
- some concepts from robust optimization and distributional robustness
- other distribution shifts that can fool machine learning models in general and neural networks in particular
InhaltAs statistical and machine learning models are increasingly employed in many real-world applications it becomes more important to understand the vulnerabilities and robustness properties of these models. In the first part of this seminar, we will study papers relating to adversarial examples, covering their properties, various attacks and defenses. In the second part of the course, we will review other types of distribution shifts, posing significant challenges for state-of-the-art machine learning models. Some parts of the seminar will be devoted to implementing these methods in python.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesWe require at least one course in statistics or machine learning and basic knowledge in computer programming. Some background knowledge in deep learning is helpful but not strictly required.
Topics will be assigned during the first meeting.

KurzbeschreibungWe discuss modern statistical methods for data analysis, including methods for data exploration, prediction and inference. We pay attention to algorithmic aspects, theoretical properties and practical considerations. The class is hands-on and methods are applied using the statistical programming language R.
LernzielThe student obtains an overview of modern statistical methods for data analysis, including their algorithmic aspects and theoretical properties. The methods are applied using the statistical programming language R.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesAt least one semester of (basic) probability and statistics.

Programming experience is helpful but not required.

Kurzbeschreibung"Statistics Lab" is an Applied Statistics Workshop in Data Analysis. It
provides a learning environment in a realistic setting.

Students lead a regular consulting session at the Seminar für Statistik
(SfS). After the session, the statistical data analysis is carried out and
a written report and results are presented to the client. The project is
also presented in the course's seminar.
Lernziel- gain initial experience in the consultancy process
- carry out a consultancy session and produce a report
- apply theoretical knowledge to an applied problem

After the course, students will have practical knowledge about statistical
consulting. They will have determined the scientific problem and its
context, enquired the design of the experiment or data collection, and
selected the appropriate methods to tackle the problem. They will have
deepened their statistical knowledge, and applied their theoretical
knowledge to the problem. They will have gathered experience in explaining
the relevant mathematical and software issues to a client. They will have
performed a statistical analysis using R (or SPSS). They improve their
skills in writing a report and presenting statistical issues in a talk.
InhaltStudents participate in consulting meetings at the SfS. Several consulting
dates are available for student participation. These are arranged
individually.

-During the first meeting the student mainly observes and participates in
the discussion. During the second meeting (with a different client), the
student leads the meeting. The member of the consulting team is overseeing
(and contributing to) the meeting.

-After the meeting, the student performs the recommended analysis, produces
a report and presents the results to the client.

-Finally, the student presents the case in the weekly course seminar in a
talk. All students are required to attend the seminar regularly.
Skriptn/a
LiteraturThe required literature will depend on the specific statistical problem
under investigation. Some introductory material can be found below.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesPrerequisites:
Sound knowledge in basic statistical methods, especially regression and, if
possible, analysis of variance. Basic experience in Data Analysis with R.
