Deep model compression has been extensively studied, and state-of-the-art methods can now achieve high compression ratios with minimal accuracy loss. This paper studies model compression through a different lens: could we compress models without hurting their robustness to adversarial attacks, in addition to maintaining accuracy? Previous literature suggested that the goals of robustness and compactness might sometimes contradict. We propose a novel Adversarially Trained Model Compression (ATMC) framework. ATMC constructs a unified constrained optimization formulation, where existing compression means (pruning, factorization, quantization) are all integrated into the constraints. An efficient algorithm is then developed. An extensive group of experiments are presented, demonstrating that ATMC obtains remarkably more favorable trade-off among model size, accuracy and robustness, over currently available alternatives in various settings. The codes are publicly available at: https://github.com/shupenggui/ATMC.

To address the large model size and intensive computation requirement of deep neural networks (DNNs), weight pruning techniques have been proposed and generally fall into two categories, i.e., static regularization-based pruning and dynamic regulariz ation-based pruning. However, the former method currently suffers either complex workloads or accuracy degradation, while the latter one takes a long time to tune the parameters to achieve the desired pruning rate without accuracy loss. In this paper, we propose a unified DNN weight pruning framework with dynamically updated regularization terms bounded by the designated constraint, which can generate both non-structured sparsity and different kinds of structured sparsity. We also extend our method to an integrated framework for the combination of different DNN compression tasks.
The worst-case training principle that minimizes the maximal adversarial loss, also known as adversarial training (AT), has shown to be a state-of-the-art approach for enhancing adversarial robustness against norm-ball bounded input perturbations. No netheless, min-max optimization beyond the purpose of AT has not been rigorously explored in the research of adversarial attack and defense. In particular, given a set of risk sources (domains), minimizing the maximal loss induced from the domain set can be reformulated as a general min-max problem that is different from AT. Examples of this general formulation include attacking model ensembles, devising universal perturbation under multiple inputs or data transformations, and generalized AT over different types of attack models. We show that these problems can be solved under a unified and theoretically principled min-max optimization framework. We also show that the self-adjusted domain weights learned from our method provides a means to explain the difficulty level of attack and defense over multiple domains. Extensive experiments show that our approach leads to substantial performance improvement over the conventional averaging strategy.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have gained increasing popularity in various computer vision applications, and recently start to be deployed to resource-constrained mobile devices. Similar to other deep models, state-of-the-art GANs suffer fro m high parameter complexities. That has recently motivated the exploration of compressing GANs (usually generators). Compared to the vast literature and prevailing success in compressing deep classifiers, the study of GAN compression remains in its infancy, so far leveraging individual compression techniques instead of more sophisticated combinations. We observe that due to the notorious instability of training GANs, heuristically stacking different compression techniques will result in unsatisfactory results. To this end, we propose the first unified optimization framework combining multiple compression means for GAN compression, dubbed GAN Slimming (GS). GS seamlessly integrates three mainstream compression techniques: model distillation, channel pruning and quantization, together with the GAN minimax objective, into one unified optimization form, that can be efficiently optimized from end to end. Without bells and whistles, GS largely outperforms existing options in compressing image-to-image translation GANs. Specifically, we apply GS to compress CartoonGAN, a state-of-the-art style transfer network, by up to 47 times, with minimal visual quality degradation. Codes and pre-trained models can be found at https://github.com/TAMU-VITA/GAN-Slimming.
Alongside the well-publicized accomplishments of deep neural networks there has emerged an apparent bug in their success on tasks such as object recognition: with deep models trained using vanilla methods, input images can be slightly corrupted in or der to modify output predictions, even when these corruptions are practically invisible. This apparent lack of robustness has led researchers to propose methods that can help to prevent an adversary from having such capabilities. The state-of-the-art approaches have incorporated the robustness requirement into the loss function, and the training process involves taking stochastic gradient descent steps not using original inputs but on adversarially-corrupted ones. In this paper we propose a multiclass boosting framework to ensure adversarial robustness. Boosting algorithms are generally well-suited for adversarial scenarios, as they were classically designed to satisfy a minimax guarantee. We provide a theoretical foundation for this methodology and describe conditions under which robustness can be achieved given a weak training oracle. We show empirically that adversarially-robust multiclass boosting not only outperforms the state-of-the-art methods, it does so at a fraction of the training time.
When training end-to-end learned models for lossy compression, one has to balance the rate and distortion losses. This is typically done by manually setting a tradeoff parameter $beta$, an approach called $beta$-VAE. Using this approach it is difficu lt to target a specific rate or distortion value, because the result can be very sensitive to $beta$, and the appropriate value for $beta$ depends on the model and problem setup. As a result, model comparison requires extensive per-model $beta$-tuning, and producing a whole rate-distortion curve (by varying $beta$) for each model to be compared. We argue that the constrained optimization method of Rezende and Viola, 2018 is a lot more appropriate for training lossy compression models because it allows us to obtain the best possible rate subject to a distortion constraint. This enables pointwise model comparisons, by training two models with the same distortion target and comparing their rate. We show that the method does manage to satisfy the constraint on a realistic image compression task, outperforms a constrained optimization method based on a hinge-loss, and is more practical to use for model selection than a $beta$-VAE.
