Under the umbrella of smart toys, a myriad of interactive systems have addressed a variety of scenarios considering entertainment, education, sustainability, social and environmental learning through play. Tangibles and small toy robots prevail; but intera ...
We consider the problem of enhancing user privacy in common data analysis and machine learning development tasks, such as data annotation and inspection, by substituting the real data with samples from a generative adversarial network. We propose employing ...
In this work, we carry out the first, in-depth, privacy analysis of Decentralized Learning-a collaborative machine learning framework aimed at addressing the main limitations of federated learning. We introduce a suite of novel attacks for both passive and ...
Although encryption hides the content of communications from third parties, metadata, i.e., the information attached to the content (such as the size or timing of communication) can be a rich source of details and context. In this dissertation, we demonstr ...
Smartphones present many interesting opportunities for survey research, particularly through the use of mobile data collection applications (apps). There is still much to learn, however, about how to integrate apps in general population surveys. Recent stu ...
Many fields make use nowadays of machine learning (ML) enhanced applications for cost optimization, scheduling or forecasting, in- cluding the energy sector. However, these very ML algorithms consume a significant amount of energy, sometimes going against ...
We analyze how the adoption of the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), which limits buying or selling consumer data, heterogeneously affects firms with and without previously gathered data on consumers. Exploiting a novel and hand-collected data set ...
Predicting where a person is looking is a complex task, requiring to understand not only the person's gaze and scene content, but also the 3D scene structure and the person's situation (are they manipulating? interacting or observing others? attentive?) to ...
Decentralized algorithms for stochastic optimization and learning rely on the diffusion of information through repeated local exchanges of intermediate estimates. Such structures are particularly appealing in situations where agents may be hesitant to shar ...
The ever-growing number of edge devices (e.g., smartphones) and the exploding volume of sensitive data they produce, call for distributed machine learning techniques that are privacy-preserving. Given the increasing computing capabilities of modern edge de ...
