Reviews: Blind Attacks on Machine Learners

Neural Information Processing Systems 

Overall, I find this branch of work quite interesting and am glad the authors are choosing to study this problem. The attacks mentioned in the paper may become feasible in the age of large web-scale datasets or human-in-the-loop training systems, along with the privacy scenario mentioned in the paper. The authors do an excellent job of motivating the problem. The paper appears clearly written if the reader is an expert within the field of statistical decision theory. I must admit that this is not my area of expertise.
