Bartlett, A.J. (author), Liem, C.C.S. (author), Panichella, A. (author)Deep learning (DL) models are known to be highly accurate, yet vulnerable to adversarial examples. While earlier research focused on generating adversarial examples using whitebox strategies, later research focused on black-box strategies, as models often are not accessible to external attackers. Prior studies showed that black-box approaches...conference paper 2023

Andrade Castanheira, Francisco (author)The optimization of interplanetary, low-thrust trajectories is a computationally expensive aspect of preliminary mission design. To reduce the computational burden associated with it, surrogate models can be used as cheap approximations of the original fitness function. Training the surrogate models in a fully online manner can be done to...master thesis 2022

Dos Santos, Rogério R. (author), Castro, Saullo G.P. (author)The present study investigates how to apply continuous tow shearing (CTS) in a manufacturable design parameterization to obtain reduced imperfection sensitivity in lightweight, cylindrical shell designs. The asymptotic nonlinear method developed by Koiter is applied to predict the postbuckled stiffness, whose index is constrained to be...journal article 2022

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Ekici, B. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)Most of the architectural design problems are basically real-parameter optimization problems. So, any type of evolutionary and swarm algorithms can be used in this field. However, there is a little attention on using optimization methods within the computer aided design (CAD) programs. In this paper, we present Optimus, which is a new...journal article 2019
