Data Theft Repackaged: A Case Study in Malicious Wrapper Packages on npm
The Socket Research Team breaks down a malicious wrapper package that uses obfuscation to harvest credentials and exfiltrate sensitive data.
Automatic and customizable pipeline for creating a CNN + light GBM model to predict whiskers contacting objects
WhACC is a tool for automated touched image classification.
Many neuroscience labs (e.g. Hires Lab) use tasks that involve whisker active touch against thin movable poles to study diverse questions of sensory and motor coding. Since neurons operate at temporal resolutions of milliseconds, determining precise whisker contact periods is essential. Yet, accurately classifying the precise moment of touch is time-consuming and labor intensive.
Single example trial lasting 4 seconds. Example video (left) along with whisker traces, decomposed components, and spikes recorded from L5 (right). How do we identify the precise millisecond frame when touch occurs?

WhACC code and software was originally developed by Phillip Maire and Jonathan Cheung in the laboratory of Samuel Andrew Hires.
