    <div><br></div>Artificial Intelligence has become deeply integrated into diverse systems, transforming industries and reshaping our daily lives. However, this widespread adoption also introduces critical privacy risks across the training data, AI models, and AI-powered systems. This talk will explore privacy challenges through these three aspects. First, I will introduce the first high-fidelity attack that exposes the privacy vulnerabilities of training data in pre-trained models and commercial AI services. Next, I will present a novel physical impersonating attack that highlights the privacy risks inherent in AI-based authentication systems. Additionally, I will discuss the first data-free framework designed to eliminate trigger-based model watermarks in diffusion models that aim to protect their intellectual property. Finally, I will conclude with a forward-looking perspective on addressing privacy risks in emerging generative AI techniques, such as Large Language Models and Stable Diffusion Models.<div>

<Title>TAILORABILITY OF CERAMIC COMPOSITES THROUGH ADVANCED MANUFACTURING SCIENCE AND DESIGN</Title>
<Tagline>REMINDER:  Seminar, Friday, 2/14/25, ENG 112, 2:30 PM</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Dr. Lionel Vargas-Gonzalez, chief of the Ceramics and Transparent Materials Branch of the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory, will be visiting on Friday, Feb. 14.  Please see abstract and biography below.<div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>
    <u>Abstract</u>:</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Tunability and tailorability of ceramic microstructure is not a new nor unique concept. Many researchers have provided the rationale for the development of graded and tailored ceramic structures and interfaces as a means for unlocking unique and non-intrinsic mechanical and thermal response; the body of literature in this area is vast. Yet, the primary challenge yet to be overcome is the manufacturing science to enable the development of these cohesive, defect free, tailorable materials designs. In this work, we highlight the efforts to (1) develop processing tools and capabilities to generate spatially-tailored bulk structural ceramics and interfaces, including the design and implementation of advanced manufacturing tools and adaptations of additive manufacturing approaches, (2) create design optimization tools to generate insight toward reducing defects and stresses during manufacturing and densification, and (3) demonstrate ability for tailoring of bulk ceramic specimens with discussion on current challenges that persist with current approaches.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <u>Bio</u>:</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Lionel Vargas-Gonzalez is a materials engineer for the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Army Research Laboratory, currently serving as Chief (A) of the Ceramics and Transparent Materials Branch. His research efforts have focused on the discovery, development and transition of materials and manufacturing sciences towards dismounted Soldier protection technologies. He received a BS degree in Ceramic and Materials Engineering in 2004 from Clemson University and a PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering in 2009 from the Georgia Institute of Technology.</div>

The artists think of this documentary research and resulting installation as a “speculative exploration of the future, using moving images to convey transformation and transition.”</p>
