Abstract
As society and technology becomes increasingly interconnected, so does the threat landscape. Once isolated threats now pose serious concerns to highly interdependent systems, highlighting the fundamental need for robust machine learning. This dissertation contributes novel tools, algorithms, databases and models through the lens of robust machine learning in a research effort to solve large-scale societal problems affecting millions of people in the areas of cybersecurity and healthcare.
1. Tools: We develop TIGER, the first comprehensive graph robustness toolbox; and our Robustness Survey identifies critical yet missing areas of graph robustness research.
