Enhanced quantitation of pathological α-synuclein in patient biospecimens by RT-QuIC seed amplification assays. by Ankit Srivastava, Qinlu Wang, Christina D Orrù, Manel Fernandez, Yaroslau Compta, Bernardino Ghetti, Gianluigi Zanusso, Wen-Quan Zou, Byron Caughey, Catherine A A Beauchemin

“…We used end-point dilution (ED) RT-QuIC assays to determine αSynD seed concentrations in patient biospecimens and tested the influence of various assay variables such as serial dilution factor, replicate number and data processing methods. The use of 2-fold versus 10-fold dilution factors and 12 versus 4 replicate reactions per dilution reduced ED-RT-QuIC assay error by as much as 70%. …”

Threat analysis and defense methods of deep-learning-based data theft in data sandbox mode by Hezhong PAN, Peiyi HAN, Xiayu XIANG, Shaoming DUAN, Rongfei ZHUANG, Chuanyi LIU

“…The threat model of deep-learning-based data theft in data sandbox model was analyzed in detail, and the degree of damage and distinguishing characteristics of this attack were quantitatively evaluated both in the data processing stage and the model training stage.Aiming at the attack in the data processing stage, a data leakage prevention method based on model pruning was proposed to reduce the amount of data leakage while ensuring the availability of the original model.Aiming at the attack in model training stage, an attack detection method based on model parameter analysis was proposed to intercept malicious models and prevent data leakage.These two methods do not need to modify or encrypt data, and do not need to manually analyze the training code of deep learning model, so they can be better applied to data theft defense in data sandbox mode.Experimental evaluation shows that the defense method based on model pruning can reduce 73% of data leakage, and the detection method based on model parameter analysis can effectively identify more than 95% of attacks.…”
