Machine Learning Research Support – Trojan Detection Competition
About
Updated 05/18/26Open Philanthropy, via Good Ventures, recommended a grant of $25,000 to ETH Zurich Foundation (USA) to enable ETH Zurich PhD student Javier Rando Ramirez and assistant professor Florian Tramèr to run a Trojan detection competition at the 2024 Security and Trustworthy ML conference. The competition focused on detecting Trojan attacks in machine learning models and falls under Open Philanthropy’s focus area of potential risks from advanced artificial intelligence.
Theory of Change
By funding a competition that challenges researchers to detect Trojan attacks in machine learning models, the project aims to improve tools and methods for identifying backdoored models, thereby strengthening ML security and helping mitigate potential risks from advanced AI systems.
