Deep neural networks have achieved impressive performance in various areas, but they are shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Previous works on adversarial attacks mainly focused on the single-task setting. However, in real applications, it is often desirable to attack several models for different tasks simultaneously. To this end, we propose Multi-Task adversarial Attack (MTA), a unified framework that can craft adversarial examples for multiple tasks efficiently by leveraging shared knowledge among tasks, which helps enable large-scale applications of adversarial attacks on real-world systems. More specifically, MTA uses a generator for adversarial perturbations which consists of a shared encoder for all tasks and multiple task-specific decoders. Thanks to the shared encoder, MTA reduces the storage cost and speeds up the inference when attacking multiple tasks simultaneously. Moreover, the proposed framework can be used to generate per-instance and universal perturbations for targeted and non-targeted attacks. Experimental results on the Office-31 and NYUv2 datasets demonstrate that MTA can improve the quality of attacks when compared with its single-task counterpart.

Deep learning on graph structures has shown exciting results in various applications. However, few attentions have been paid to the robustness of such models, in contrast to numerous research work for image or text adversarial attack and defense. In this paper, we focus on the adversarial attacks that fool the model by modifying the combinatorial structure of data. We first propose a reinforcement learning based attack method that learns the generalizable attack policy, while only requiring prediction labels from the target classifier. Also, variants of genetic algorithms and gradient methods are presented in the scenario where prediction confidence or gradients are available. We use both synthetic and real-world data to show that, a family of Graph Neural Network models are vulnerable to these attacks, in both graph-level and node-level classification tasks. We also show such attacks can be used to diagnose the learned classifiers.
Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples that are crafted by imposing imperceptible changes to the inputs. However, these adversarial examples are most successful in white-box settings where the model and its parameters are available. Finding adversarial examples that are transferable to other models or developed in a black-box setting is significantly more difficult. In this paper, we propose the Direction-Aggregated adversarial attacks that deliver transferable adversarial examples. Our method utilizes aggregated direction during the attack process for avoiding the generated adversarial examples overfitting to the white-box model. Extensive experiments on ImageNet show that our proposed method improves the transferability of adversarial examples significantly and outperforms state-of-the-art attacks, especially against adversarial robust models. The best averaged attack success rates of our proposed method reaches 94.6% against three adversarial trained models and 94.8% against five defense methods. It also reveals that current defense approaches do not prevent transferable adversarial attacks.
Recently, the textual adversarial attack models become increasingly popular due to their successful in estimating the robustness of NLP models. However, existing works have obvious deficiencies. (1) They usually consider only a single granularity of modification strategies (e.g. word-level or sentence-level), which is insufficient to explore the holistic textual space for generation; (2) They need to query victim models hundreds of times to make a successful attack, which is highly inefficient in practice. To address such problems, in this paper we propose MAYA, a Multi-grAnularitY Attack model to effectively generate high-quality adversarial samples with fewer queries to victim models. Furthermore, we propose a reinforcement-learning based method to train a multi-granularity attack agent through behavior cloning with the expert knowledge from our MAYA algorithm to further reduce the query times. Additionally, we also adapt the agent to attack black-box models that only output labels without confidence scores. We conduct comprehensive experiments to evaluate our attack models by attacking BiLSTM, BERT and RoBERTa in two different black-box attack settings and three benchmark datasets. Experimental results show that our models achieve overall better attacking performance and produce more fluent and grammatical adversarial samples compared to baseline models. Besides, our adversarial attack agent significantly reduces the query times in both attack settings. Our codes are released at https://github.com/Yangyi-Chen/MAYA.
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial examples, which are crafted by adding imperceptible perturbations to inputs. Recently different attacks and strategies have been proposed, but how to generate adversarial examples perceptually realistic and more efficiently remains unsolved. This paper proposes a novel framework called Attack-Inspired GAN (AI-GAN), where a generator, a discriminator, and an attacker are trained jointly. Once trained, it can generate adversarial perturbations efficiently given input images and target classes. Through extensive experiments on several popular datasets eg MNIST and CIFAR-10, AI-GAN achieves high attack success rates and reduces generation time significantly in various settings. Moreover, for the first time, AI-GAN successfully scales to complicated datasets eg CIFAR-100 with around $90%$ success rates among all classes.
Recent years have witnessed the emergence and development of graph neural networks (GNNs), which have been shown as a powerful approach for graph representation learning in many tasks, such as node classification and graph classification. The research on the robustness of these models has also started to attract attentions in the machine learning field. However, most of the existing work in this area focus on the GNNs for node-level tasks, while little work has been done to study the robustness of the GNNs for the graph classification task. In this paper, we aim to explore the vulnerability of the Hierarchical Graph Pooling (HGP) Neural Networks, which are advanced GNNs that perform very well in the graph classification in terms of prediction accuracy. We propose an adversarial attack framework for this task. Specifically, we design a surrogate model that consists of convolutional and pooling operators to generate adversarial samples to fool the hierarchical GNN-based graph classification models. We set the preserved nodes by the pooling operator as our attack targets, and then we perturb the attack targets slightly to fool the pooling operator in hierarchical GNNs so that they will select the wrong nodes to preserve. We show the adversarial samples generated from multiple datasets by our surrogate model have enough transferability to attack current state-of-art graph classification models. Furthermore, we conduct the robust train on the target models and demonstrate that the retrained graph classification models are able to better defend against the attack from the adversarial samples. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work on the adversarial attack against hierarchical GNN-based graph classification models.
