Abstract: Hiding a Swarm's Leader from RL Agent and Human This talk explores methods for protecting leadership within robotic swarms, where leader-based control improves coordination but introduces vulnerability. Using graph neural networks (GNNs), swarms can be trained to follow a leader, while adversarial models attempt to identify it. Results show that although AI models outperform humans in identifying leaders under normal conditions, humans become more effective when swarms adopt deception strategies to hide leaders. Even with adaptive adversaries and increased visual complexity, human observers demonstrate robust performance. These findings highlight key differences between human perception and AI in complex multi-agent environments. AI Safety in the Information and Physical Spaces In this talk, we will present our work on vulnerabilities of Foundational Multi-Modal Models. In particular, we will present jailbreaking of Frontier Models via intention deception and conditions that make multi modal models more vulnerable to adversarial attacks in disclosing dangerous information. We will also propose safety mitigations. Additionally, we will introduce contextual safety and its challenges in the physical world. ※ No registration needed.

Topic：The Digital Shift: Transforming Clinical Trials with Big Data and AI Speaker: Dr. Ray Lin (Genentech/Roche) Time: 2026/05/05 (二)  14:00-16:00 Venue: The Management Building, 11F, AI Lecture Hall Join Online: https://reurl.cc/WbvX79 or scan QR code on poster About the Speaker: Dr. Ray Lin got his BS and MS degrees in Computer Science and Information Engineering from National Taiwan University, specializing in AI in his Master’s Thesis. He later obtained a MS degree in Statistics and a PhD degree in Biomedical Informatics from Stanford University. His PhD research focused on synthetic clinical trials using computer-simulated virtual patients to evaluate cancer screening for lung cancer and breast cancer. Dr. Lin has accumulated 15 years of experience in drug development with Genentech (Roche) supporting clinical trials for developing new cancer treatments, including therapies approved in multiple cancer types globally. He has also been actively engaging in cross-industry collaborations and professional organizations, including multiple leadership positions in an American Statistical Association (ASA) scientific working stream, a US FDA initiated cross-pharma initiative in oncology, and the ASA San Francisco Bay Area local chapter. Abstract: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) remain the gold standard for clinical research; however, they face significant hurdles, including high costs, lengthy timelines, and ethical or feasibility constraints. The era of Big Data and AI presents transformative opportunities to address these challenges. Real-world data (RWD)—such as electronic medical records, insurance databases, and disease registries—can supplement RCTs to reduce costs, enhance enrollment, and accelerate timelines, particularly for rare diseases with high unmet medical needs. Simultaneously, AI-driven models can predict patient outcomes, enabling the simulation of "virtual patients" in synthetic clinical trials when traditional randomization is impractical or unethical. This presentation features two case studies: (1) A novel dynamic borrowing method that integrates RCTs with external data to increase study efficiency while minimizing selection bias and maintaining trial integrity; (2) The use of virtual patients and synthetic trials to evaluate cancer screening programs. These findings were incorporated into the National Cancer Institute’s Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network consortium (CISNET) consortium and have directly influenced breast cancer screening recommendations in the U.S. and Taiwan. ※ No registration needed.
