A lab studying attacks on, and defenses for, AI that handles images.

AboutAbout the lab
Protecting image recognition and generation from attacks on AI.
The Nakamura Lab studies cyberattacks on AI that recognizes or generates images, and defenses against them.
Its research fields are information security, perceptual information processing, and intelligent informatics.
Its research topics are developing methods for removing the poison from image recognition models and image datasets that have suffered poisoning attacks, and quantifying the risk of model inversion attacks that expose the training data of image generation AI, along with developing defenses against them.
Key terms
- Model inversion attack
- An attack that causes an image generation AI to expose its training data.
