CAIAS Researcher Tao Wu Has Two Papers Accepted to AAAI 2024

CAIAS Researcher Tao Wu has had not one but two separate papers accepted to the AAAI 2024 conference held in Vancouver, BC, Canada in February 2024.

Competitive conferences such as AAAI have a relatively low acceptance rate of papers that are submitted each year both by virtue of the volume of papers submitted by authors around the globe and by the high level of academic rigor and quality expected from those papers; in fact, the final acceptance rate of this AAAI 2024 conference was at a competitive 23.75%. There are no barriers to authors submitting multiple papers, and it is not uncommon for authors and research groups to submit multiple papers to increase the chances of one acceptance, but it is exceedingly rare for two papers to be accepted from a single author, marking a unique and remarkable feat for CAIAS and ACIL researcher Tao Wu. The CAIAS congratulates and celebrate Tao for his achievement.

The two papers are listed below:

  • Wu, Tao, Tie Luo, and Donald C. Wunsch. “LRS: Enhancing Adversarial Transferability through Lipschitz Regularized Surrogate.” arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.13118 (2023).
  • Wu, Tao, Tie Luo, and Donald C. Wunsch. “CR-SAM: Curvature Regularized Sharpness-Aware Minimization.” arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.13555 (2023).
