ARTMAN -- Workshop on Recent Advances in Resilient and Trustworthy MAchine learning-driveN systems

The 3rd ARTMAN workshop co-located with ACM CCS 2025 (October 17, 2025 -- Taipei, Taiwan)

Overview

This workshop aims at bringing together academic researchers and industrial practitioners from different domains with diverse expertise (mainly security & privacy and artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML), but also from application domains) to collectively explore and discuss the topics about resilient and trustworthy machine learning-powered applications and systems, share their views, experiences, and lessons learned, and provide their insights and perspectives, so as to converge on a systematic approach to securing them.

Topics of Interest

This workshop will be focused on the resilience and trustworthiness of AI/ML-driven systems. Resilience refers to the ability of an AI/ML system to maintain required capability and expected performance in the face of adversity, covering both dependability (accidental failures) and security (intentional attacks) issues. Trustworthiness refers to the attribute that an AI/ML system provides confidence to users of their capabilities and reliability in performing given tasks.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  • Threat modeling and risk assessment of ML systems and applications in intelligent systems, including, but not limited to, anomaly detection, failure prediction, root cause analysis, incident diagnosis
  • Data-centric attacks and defenses of ML systems and applications in intelligent systems, such as model evasion via targeted perturbations in testing samples, data poisoning in training examples
  • Adversarial machine learning, including adversarial examples of input data and adversarial learning algorithms developed for intelligent systems
  • ML robustness: testing, simulation, verification, validation, and certification of robustness of ML pipelines (not only ML algorithms and models) in intelligent systems, including but not limited to data-centric analytics, model-driven methods, and hybrid methods
  • AI system safety: dependability topics related to AI system development and deployment environments, including hardware, ML platform and framework, software
  • Trust in AI systems and applications, this mainly explores the trust issues arising from the interactions between human users and AI systems (e.g., Man-Machine Symbiosis, Human-Machine Teaming), with a particular focus on interpretable, explainable, accountable, transparent, and fair AI systems and applications in intelligent systems
  • Resilience by reaction: Leveraging AI/ML algorithms, especially knowledge-informed models, to improve resilience and trust of intelligent systems
  • Machine unlearning: measures to protect users' privacy against ML-based threats
  • Sustainable AI: usable and robust small AI models; privacy-aware distillation or compression techniques; robust and trustworthy Federated Learning, trustworthy AI agents and embodied AI

Submission Guidelines

Papers can be submitted in two categories: regular and short ones.

  • Regular workshop paper submissions must be at most 10 pages in double-column ACM format, excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices, and at most 12 pages overall.
  • Short papers are limited to 6 pages in total (4 pages without bibliography and appendices).
  • Papers should be prepared in ACM format using latex. Please follow the main CCS formatting instructions to prepare the submissions. The sigconf template is available here.
  • All submissions must be in English and properly anonymized.
  • All the accepted papers (both regular and short versions) will be included in the proceedings and published by the ACM Digital Library and/or ACM Press.
Please note that TPC members are not required to read the appendices, so the paper should be intelligible without them.
