CLB-Defense: based on contrastive learning defense for graph neural network against backdoor attack by Jinyin CHEN, Haiyang XIONG, Haonan MA, Yayu ZHENG

“…For the problem that the existing backdoor attack defense methods are difficult to deal with irregular and unstructured discrete graph data to alleviate the threat of backdoor attacks, a backdoor attack defense method for GNN based on contrastive learning was proposed, namely CLB-Defense.Specifically, a contrastive model was built by using contrastive learning in an unsupervised way, which searches suspicious backdoored samples.Then the suspicious backdoored samples were reshaped by using the graph importance indexes and the label smoothing strategy, and the defense against graph backdoor attack was realized.Finally, extensive experimental results show that CLB-Defense realizes the effect of defense performance on four public datasets and five popular graph backdoor attacks, e.g., CLB-Defense can reduce the attack success rate by an average of 75.66% (compared with the baselines, an improvement of 54.01%).…”

The MaNGA Dwarf Galaxy Sample (MaNDala): Stellar Profiles and Gradients Characterization by M. Cano-Díaz, A. Rodríguez-Puebla, A. C. Robleto-Orús, V. Ávila-Reese, H. M. Hernández-Toledo, J. A. Vázquez-Mata, O. Valenzuela, J. J. González, H. J. Ibarra-Medel, J. C. Clemente-González, L. Pavón-Alvarez

“…We derived robust radial profiles and inner/outer gradients of various stellar population (SP) properties for a sample of 124 bright dwarf galaxies, 10 ^7.53 ≤ M _* / M _⊙ ≤ 10 ^9.06 , from the MaNDala sample, using integral field spectroscopy observations. Given the complex structure of dwarf galaxies, we explored four different methods to derive SP radial profiles: two based on concentric elliptical rings, and the other two exploiting the spatially resolved nature of the data. …”
