We propose a new ensemble method for detecting and classifying adversarial examples generated by state-of-the-art attacks, including DeepFool and C&W. Our method works by training the members of an ensemble to have low classification error on random benign examples while simultaneously minimizing agreement on examples outside the training distribution. We evaluate on both MNIST and CIFAR-10, against oblivious and both white- and black-box adversaries.

Adversarial examples have become one of the largest challenges that machine learning models, especially neural network classifiers, face. These adversarial examples break the assumption of attack-free scenario and fool state-of-the-art (SOTA) classifiers with insignificant perturbations to human. So far, researchers achieved great progress in utilizing adversarial training as a defense. However, the overwhelming computational cost degrades its applicability and little has been done to overcome this issue. Single-Step adversarial training methods have been proposed as computationally viable solutions, however they still fail to defend against iterative adversarial examples. In this work, we first experimentally analyze several different SOTA defense methods against adversarial examples. Then, based on observations from experiments, we propose a novel single-step adversarial training method which can defend against both single-step and iterative adversarial examples. Lastly, through extensive evaluations, we demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms the SOTA single-step and iterative adversarial training defense. Compared with ATDA (single-step method) on CIFAR10 dataset, our proposed method achieves 35.67% enhancement in test accuracy and 19.14% reduction in training time. When compared with methods that use BIM or Madry examples (iterative methods) on CIFAR10 dataset, it saves up to 76.03% in training time with less than 3.78% degeneration in test accuracy.
Many deep learning algorithms can be easily fooled with simple adversarial examples. To address the limitations of existing defenses, we devised a probabilistic framework that can generate an exponentially large ensemble of models from a single model with just a linear cost. This framework takes advantage of neural network depth and stochastically decides whether or not to insert noise removal operators such as VAEs between layers. We show empirically the important role that model gradients have when it comes to determining transferability of adversarial examples, and take advantage of this result to demonstrate that it is possible to train models with limited adversarial attack transferability. Additionally, we propose a detection method based on metric learning in order to detect adversarial examples that have no hope of being cleaned of maliciously engineered noise.
Adversarial training, in which a network is trained on adversarial examples, is one of the few defenses against adversarial attacks that withstands strong attacks. Unfortunately, the high cost of generating strong adversarial examples makes standard adversarial training impractical on large-scale problems like ImageNet. We present an algorithm that eliminates the overhead cost of generating adversarial examples by recycling the gradient information computed when updating model parameters. Our free adversarial training algorithm achieves comparable robustness to PGD adversarial training on the CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets at negligible additional cost compared to natural training, and can be 7 to 30 times faster than other strong adversarial training methods. Using a single workstation with 4 P100 GPUs and 2 days of runtime, we can train a robust model for the large-scale ImageNet classification task that maintains 40% accuracy against PGD attacks. The code is available at https://github.com/ashafahi/free_adv_train.
The vulnerability of deep neural networks (DNNs) to adversarial examples has drawn great attention from the community. In this paper, we study the transferability of such examples, which lays the foundation of many black-box attacks on DNNs. We revisit a not so new but definitely noteworthy hypothesis of Goodfellow et al.s and disclose that the transferability can be enhanced by improving the linearity of DNNs in an appropriate manner. We introduce linear backpropagation (LinBP), a method that performs backpropagation in a more linear fashion using off-the-shelf attacks that exploit gradients. More specifically, it calculates forward as normal but backpropagates loss as if some nonlinear activations are not encountered in the forward pass. Experimental results demonstrate that this simple yet effective method obviously outperforms current state-of-the-arts in crafting transferable adversarial examples on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet, leading to more effective attacks on a variety of DNNs.
Due to the surprisingly good representation power of complex distributions, neural network (NN) classifiers are widely used in many tasks which include natural language processing, computer vision and cyber security. In recent works, people noticed the existence of adversarial examples. These adversarial examples break the NN classifiers underlying assumption that the environment is attack free and can easily mislead fully trained NN classifier without noticeable changes. Among defensive methods, adversarial training is a popular choice. However, original adversarial training with single-step adversarial examples (Single-Adv) can not defend against iterative adversarial examples. Although adversarial training with iterative adversarial examples (Iter-Adv) can defend against iterative adversarial examples, it consumes too much computational power and hence is not scalable. In this paper, we analyze Iter-Adv techniques and identify two of their empirical properties. Based on these properties, we propose modifications which enhance Single-Adv to perform competitively as Iter-Adv. Through preliminary evaluation, we show that the proposed method enhances the test accuracy of state-of-the-art (SOTA) Single-Adv defensive method against iterative adversarial examples by up to 16.93% while reducing its training cost by 28.75%.
