astronomical adversaries: we are go!

The NYU Center for Data Science has a big masters program, and as a part of that, students do capstone research projects with industry and academic partners. I am one of the latter! So Soledad Villar (NYU) and I have been advising two groups of capstone students in projects. One of these groups (Teresa Ningyuan Huang, Zach Martin, Greg Scanlon, and Eva Shuyu Wang) has been working on adversarial attacks against regressions in astronomy. The work is new in part because it brings the idea of attacks to the natural science domain, and because attacks haven't been really defined for regression contexts. Today we decided that this work is ready (enough) to publish. So we are going to try to finish and submit something for a conference deadline this week!
