Semantic-Aware-Shilling-Attacks
In this paper, we introduce SAShA, a new attack strategy that leverages semantic features extracted from a knowledge graph in order to strengthen the efficacy of the attack to standard CF models. We performed an extensive experimental evaluation in order to investigate whether SAShA is more effective than baseline attacks against CF models by taking into account the impact of various semantic features.
Adversarial-Machine-Learning-in-recommender-Systems
In this survey, we provide an exhaustive literature review of 76 articles published in major RS and ML journals and conferences. This review serves as a reference for the RS community, working on the security of RS or on generative models using GANs to improve their quality.

TAaMR
Proposal of a novel adversarial attack approach, called Target Adversarial Attack against Multimedia Recommender Systems (TAaMR), to investigate the modification of MR behavior when the images of a category of low recommended products (e.g., socks) are perturbed to misclassify the deep neural classifier towards the class of more recommended products (e.g., running shoes) with human-level slight images alterations.
Assessing-Perceptual-and-Recommendation-Mutation-of-Adversarially-Poisoned-Visual-Recommenders
In this work, we provide 24 combinations of attack/defense strategies, and visual-based recommenders to 1) access performance alteration on recommendation and 2) empirically verify the effect on final users through offline visual metrics.
