Project Description

This is "The Multimedia Signal Processing and Security Lab", short WaveLab, website. We are a research group at the Artificial Intelligence and Human Interfaces (AIHI) Department of the University of Salzburg led by Andreas Uhl. Our research is focused on Visual Data Processing and associated security questions. Most of our work is currently concentrated on Biometrics, Media Forensics and Media Security, Medical Image and Video Analysis, and application oriented fundamental research in digital humanities, individualised aquaculture and sustainable wood industry.
     

Research and Transfer Centre Cybersecurity

 

Project Description:

The Research and Transfer Centre (FTZ) Cybersecurity for Data-Based Evaluation of Security and Privacy Technologies focuses on making artificial intelligence (AI) and data-based technologies more secure. The project is funded from the IBW/EFRE & JTF initiatives and is conducted in collaboration with the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences. As AI is increasingly used in areas such as industry, medicine, and energy supply, new risks and attack vectors emerge. Our focus lies on so-called "adversarial examples" in face recognition systems: intentionally manipulated inputs that can deceive AI systems – for example, slightly altered images that appear normal to humans but are misinterpreted by AI, leading to incorrect identifications. We particularly consider low quality envorinments like ID documents and remote enrollement / authentication.
