Fuzzing the brain: automated stress testing for the safety of ML-driven neurostimulation, Downing, Mara, Peng, Matthew, Granley, Jacob, Beyeler, Michael, Bultan, Tevfik

We propose a systematic, quantitative approach to detect and characterize unsafe stimulation patterns in ML-driven neurostimulation systems.

Human-aligned deep learning models exhibit behaviors consistent with human values, such as robustness, fairness, and honesty. Transferring these behavioral properties to models trained on different ta...
